We solve for centripetal acceleration, centripetal force, and tangential velocity. In this Closer Look segment on circular motion, we investigate circular motion and solve for centripetal acceleration ...
Segment 3G: Circular Motion We explore the concept of circular motion. Segment 3G: Circular Motion We travel to an amusement park to explore circular motion. We work through an example problem and ...
Velocity is always TANGENT to the path. Acceleration, in general, has BOTH tangential and normal components. The normal component of acceleration always points INWARD to the path. The tangential ...
