1
New cards

In a circular motion, the object _____

In a circular motion, the object just moves in a circle. 

2
New cards

In a rotational motion, the object _____

In a rotational motion, the object rotates about an axis.

3
New cards

A rigid body

A rigid body is a body that does not deform or change shape.

4
New cards

When is angular acceleration constant?

When an object (rigid body) rotates, it speeds up or slows down. During these time intervals, the angular velocity is changing therefore it has an angular acceleration. If its angular velocity changes at a constant rate then we can say that the angular acceleration is constant and the motion is called the rotational motion under constant angular acceleration.

5
New cards

Under what condition the angular acceleration of a rotating object is equal to zero?

When the angular velocity is constant or when the object is at rest.

6
New cards

Relation between linear and angular quantities

s = rθ
v = rω

𝑎𝑡 = rα

7
New cards

Linear velocity is also known as ____

Tangential velocity

8
New cards

Where is angular velocity?

It’s on the Z axis

9
New cards

If the magnitude of the angular velocity of a rotating object changes, the magnitude of _____ will also change and the object will have a tangential acceleration.

linear velocity / tangential velocity

10
New cards

The direction of tangential acceleration is always ____ to the circular path.

tangent

11
New cards

The direction of the angular velocity vector is ______ to the plane of rotation, and along the axis of the rotation. 

perpendicular 

12
New cards

When the angular velocity is increasing, the angular acceleration vector points in the ______ direction.

same

13
New cards

When the anuglar velocity is decreasing, the angular acceleratino vector poitns in the _____ to the angular velocity.

opposite

14
New cards

The bigger the radius, the bigger the velocity when angular velocity is constant for both cases.

The carousel question

15
New cards

16
New cards

If the object is ______, angular velocity and the angular acceleration have same direction.

velocity is increasing / speeding up

17
New cards

If the object is ______, angular velocity and the angular acceleration have opposite direction.

velocity is decreasing / slowing down

18
New cards

The cause of V’s value = _____

tangential acceleration

19
New cards

The cause of V’s direction = ______

centripetal acceleration

20
New cards

If an object rotates with constant angular velocity, its acceleration is zero. 

False because every circular motion (angular quantities) has centripetal acceleration. 

21
New cards

Angular velocity is the rate of ______ with respect to displacement.

rotation 

22
New cards

In non-uniform circular motion, an object is moving in a circular path with a varying ______

speed
