    Study Notes

    Angular Motion

    • Angular displacement is the angle through which an object rotates.
    • The unit for angular velocity is radians per second (rad/s).

    Circular Motion

    • The time taken by an object to complete one revolution on its circular path is called the period.
    • Centripetal acceleration is the acceleration of an object moving in a circular path, directed towards the center of the circle.

    Relative Motion

    • Relative velocity refers to the velocity of an object with respect to another object or a reference frame.

    Angular Acceleration

    • Angular acceleration is the rate of change of angular velocity.

    Projectile Motion

    • A body thrown with some initial velocity in two dimensions under the action of gravity alone is called a projectile.
    • The path that an object follows when thrown at an angle with the horizontal direction is called a trajectory.
    • The principle that states horizontal and vertical motions are independent of each other is the fundamental principle of projectile motion.
    • The movement of an object along the circumference of a circle along a circular path is called circular motion.

    Projectile Motion Scenarios

    • An object projected from a point with velocity u above the ground can have x0 = 0 and y0 = 0 at time t = 0, which is a scenario of vertical projection.
    • Examples of projectile motion include throwing a ball, kicking a football, or launching a rocket.
