(prove it) x distance is same for angles about 45° if everything else remains the same. Time in flight depends on y equation if no barriers other than the earth interrupt the flight path. v0v0  g

12. Physics 151: Lecture 5, Pg 11 General 3-D motion with non-zero acceleration: l Uniform Circular Motion is one specific case of this :a v path t aa a = 0 because either or both: -> change in magnitude of v -> change in direction of v a = 0 a a a a = + Animation

13. Physics 151: Lecture 5, Pg 12 Uniform Circular Motion l What does it mean ? l How do we describe it ? l What can we learn about it ? See text: 4-4

14. Physics 151: Lecture 5, Pg 13 What is Uniform Circular Motion (UCM) ? l Motion in a circle with: çConstant Radius R v ç Constant Speed v = |v| çacceleration ? R v x y (x,y) See text: 4-4 = 0a a = const.a

15. Physics 151: Lecture 5, Pg 14 How can we describe UCM? l In general, one coordinate system is as good as any other: ç Cartesian: » (x,y) [position] » (v x,v y ) [velocity] ç Polar: » (R,  )[position] » (v R,  ) [velocity] l In UCM: ç R is constant (hence v R = 0).   (angular velocity) is constant. ç Polar coordinates are a natural way to describe UCM! R v x y (x,y)  See text: 4-4

16. Physics 151: Lecture 5, Pg 15 Polar Coordinates: l The arc length s (distance along the circumference) is related to the angle in a simple way: s = R , where  is the angular displacement.  units of  are called radians. l For one complete revolution: 2  R = R  c   c = 2   has period 2 . R v x y (x,y) s  See text: 4-4 1 revolution = 2  radians

17. Physics 151: Lecture 5, Pg 16 Polar Coordinates... l In Cartesian co-ordinates we say velocity dx/dt = v. ç x = vt In polar coordinates, angular velocity d  /dt = .   =  t   has units of radians/second. l Displacement s = vt. but s = R  = R  t, so: R v x y s  t v =  R

18. Physics 151: Lecture 5, Pg 17 Period and Frequency l Recall that 1 revolution = 2  radians çfrequency (f) = revolutions / second (a)  angular velocity (  ) = radians / second (b) l By combining (a) and (b)   = 2  f l Realize that: çperiod (T) = seconds / revolution  So T = 1 / f = 2  /  R v s   = 2  / T = 2  f v R s

19. Physics 151: Lecture 5, Pg 18 Lecture 5, ACT 2 Uniform Circular Motion l A fighter pilot flying in a circular turn will pass out if the centripetal acceleration he experiences is more than about 9 times the acceleration of gravity g. If his F18 is moving with a speed of 300 m/s, what is the approximate diameter of the tightest turn this pilot can make and survive to tell about it ?

20. Physics 151: Lecture 5, Pg 19 Acceleration in UCM: l This is called l This is called Centripetal Acceleration. l Now let’s calculate the magnitude: vv1vv1 vv2vv2 vvvv vv2vv2 vv1vv1 R RRRR Similar triangles: But  R = v  t for small  t So:
