Study Notes

Projectile Motion

In projectile motion with no air resistance, the horizontal acceleration (ax) is 0 and the vertical acceleration (ay) is equal to gravity (-g).
The coordinates of the position and velocity components are simple functions of time.
The shape of the path of a projectile is always a parabola.

Uniform Circular Motion

Uniform circular motion occurs when an object moves in a circular path at a constant speed.
The magnitude of the average acceleration during a given time interval is equal to the change in velocity divided by the change in time:
- |Δv| / Δt
The magnitude of instantaneous acceleration is calculated as the limit of the change in velocity divided by the change in time as the time interval approaches zero:
- lim (Δt->0) |Δv| / Δt

Centripetal Acceleration

The centripetal acceleration is the acceleration directed towards the center of the circular path.
The magnitude of the centripetal acceleration (arad) is equal to the square of the object's speed divided by the radius of the circular path:
- arad = v^2 / R
Centripetal acceleration can also be expressed in terms of the period (T) of the circular motion. The period is the time it takes for one complete revolution:
- arad = (4 * pi^2 * R) / T^2

Non-Uniform Circular Motion

Non-uniform circular motion occurs when the speed of an object moving in a circular path is not constant.
The acceleration in non-uniform circular motion has two components:
- a tangential component (atan) that is tangent to the path and parallel to the velocity (v) of the object.
- a radial component (arad) that is directed towards the center of the circular path (centripetal acceleration).
