New cards

Angular velocity

An object’s rate of change of angular position.

2
New cards

Centripetal acceleration

The acceleration of an object moving in circular motion.

Any object in circular motion must have an acceleration since the direction of the

object, and therefore the velocity of the object, is constantly changing.

3
New cards

Centripetal force

The resultant force responsible for an object moving in circular

motion. Centripetal forces always act towards the centre of the object’s rotation.

4
New cards

Frequency

The inverse of time period. The number of rotations per unit time.

5
New cards

Period

The time taken for one whole rotation.

6
New cards

Radian

A unit of angle, where 2π equal to one complete angular rotation.
