Circular Motion pre-question
• An object is swung in uniform circular motion vertically. Where is the tangential acceleration the greatest?
A) At the top of the circleB) At the bottom of the circleC) At the point midway between top and bottomD) At both the top and bottom of the circleE) None of the above

Circular Motion pre-question
• A pickup has a crate of apples in its bed. The pickup makes a right turn and the once stationary crate accelerates to the left with respect to the truck bed and hits the side of the pickup. In which direction is a force acting on the crate?
A) To the rightB) To the leftC) Not enough information

Uniform Circular Motion
![Page 7: PHYS16 – Lecture 11](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816766550346895ddc49c5/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Uniform Circular Motion
Non-uniform circularmotion – both aT and aC
http://sciencefair.math.iit.edu/projects/forces/roller_coaster.jpg
Uniform circular motion – α =0only centripetal accel. (aC)

Demo – Ball on String with meter/mass
![Page 10: PHYS16 – Lecture 11](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816766550346895ddc49c5/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Discussion Questions
• If I spin a mass in a vertical circle:– Do I apply a constant force to maintain a constant
linear speed?– Where is the string most likely to break?
• If I spin a bucket of water in a vertical circle:– Where is the most likely spot the water will fall
out?– Does the water fall out?
No, gravity too.
At the bottom.
At the top.
No, inertia.

Inertial Forces
• Centrifugal reaction – inertia of object causes it to stay along the same path until acted on by a force

Solving Problems with Circular Motion
![Page 14: PHYS16 – Lecture 11](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56816766550346895ddc49c5/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Process of solving problems
1) Read the problem carefully!2) Draw a picture (Trick – Free Body Diagram)3) Write down the given quantities
(Trick – remember Third Law)4) Write down what you should solve for5) Identify the eqns./concepts you should use
(Trick – Second Law & separate into x/y)
6) Do the math and solve

Pendulum
• A bob of mass, m, swings in an arc. At angle, θ, what is the centripetal acceleration?

)cos(
What is the tangential acceleration?
)sin(gaT

Conclusions
• Angular position, velocity, and acceleration– Angular displacement vs. arc length– Angular vs. linear velocity– Angular vs. linear acceleration
• Uniform circular motion –α=0– Centripetal Force
