Term 1 Week 4 2020

Homework:
  • Ex 4E, p.115-117 Kinematics (from last week)
  • Ex 4F, p.119-124 Projectile Motion (from last week)
  • Ex 4A, p.90-94 Vectors (from last week)
  • Ex 4B, p.97-104 Forces (for week 5)
  • Ex 4H, p.132-134, Circular Motion (this week)

Circular Motion
  • Velocity is always at a tangent to the circle. Even if the speed remains constant, the velocity is changing because it is accelerating.

vc = 2𝝿r/T

  • Centrapetal Acceleration is always toward the centre of the circle.
  • ac = mv2/r
  • Centapetal Force is the Net Force, and is also always towards the centre of the circle.

Fc = mv2/r
