Study Notes

Circular Motion

Velocity is constantly changing in circular motion due to the change in direction.
The speed of an object moving in a circle remains constant, but the direction of motion changes continuously.
The direction of travel in circular motion is constantly changing, which means the object is accelerating.
An object changes direction in circular motion due to a force acting perpendicular to the direction of motion, causing the object to turn.
The speed of an object in circular motion remains constant, but the direction of motion changes, resulting in a continuous change in velocity.
