1 CHAPTER 5

2 Uniform circular motion is the motion of an object traveling at a constant speed on a circular path. If T (period) is the time it takes for an object to travel once around a circle, of radius, r, then the velocity of the object is given by: Where v t is the tangential velocity of the object Uniform Circular Motion

3 Acceleration in Uniform Circular Motion An object that moves at constant speed in a circular path is accelerating. This acceleration is known as Centripetal Acceleration (a c ) and it is directed towards the center of the circular path. © 2012 OpenStax College

4 Acceleration in Uniform Circular Motion This object traveling in a circular path also experiences a force that is also directed towards the center of the circular path This force is known as Centripetal Force (F c ) Therefore change in velocity of this object is also directed toward the center of the circular path © 2012 OpenStax College

5 Rotation and Centripetal Acceleration Note!!! If an object is rotating about a fixed axis, even at a constant speed, every point in that object is undergoing a centripetal acceleration as well.

6 Centripetal Acceleration The magnitude of the centripetal acceleration is given by the formula Where : v t = tangential speed r = radius of the circle. The direction of the force is toward the center of the circle. © 2012 OpenStax College

7 The force causing constant circular motion is given by: This force is not a new force. It just tells us the amount of force that must be provided, by a tension, gravity, etc., in order for an object to move in a circle. Centripetal Force © 2012 OpenStax College

8 A pail of water is swing in a circular path of radius r and a speed at the top of v t. Find the force exerted by the pail on the water. Find the minimum speed with which the bucket can be swung and still have the water remain in the pail at the top. What is the normal force on the water at the bottom of the swing if the pail is moving with this same speed? Circular Motion Example 1 vtvt FCFC

25 Newton’s Universal Law of Gravitation Gravitational force is the mutual force of attraction between particles of matter There is a gravitational force between any 2 objects The larger the object…the more pull it has For example, there is a gravitational force between 2 pencils Since they have the same mass, they have the same gravitational pull

26 If the objects are larger, they will have more gravitational force Our gravitational force is extremely small (due to our small mass) relative to the earth’s gravitational force (which has a much larger mass) As a result, our gravitational force is cancelled out due to earth’s larger gravitational force

27 Gravitational force is the force that keeps planets in orbit and keeps them from coasting off in a straight line Gravitational force is an attractive force It depends on the distance between two objects and The magnitude of the masses

28 Increase the distance-decrease the gravity Gravitational force is directly proportional to the product of the two masses involved Gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance of separation

32 Satellites in Circular Orbits There is only one speed that a satellite can have if the satellite is to remain in an orbit with a fixed radius.

33 Finding the speed of an Earth Satellite write these equations at the bottom of your notes!! Centripetal acceleration: Centripetal force: The force is the force of Gravity The mass of the satellite divides out, so it doesn’t matter.

35 Newton’s Cannon Newton compared the motion of a falling object to the motion of the Moon. An object in orbit is actually falling toward the Earth, at just the same rate that the Earth curves away from it.

36 Gravitational Field Strength of a Point Mass (or Spherically Symmetric Mass) write these equations at the bottom of your notes!! The gravity field around a point mass, or a spherically symmetric mass, depends only on the mass and the distance away from the center.

40 Kepler’s contributions to astronomy Used Tycho’s data to formulate three laws of planetary motion. The planets move in elliptical orbits with the Sun at one center of the ellipse. The planets trace out equal areas in equal times. The square of a planet’s period is proportional to the cube of its distance from the sun. T 2 ~ r 3
