Flashcards: Fundamentals of Planar and Circular Motion — 16 cartões

Planar motion — definition?

Movement confined to a single plane.

Types of planar movements — examples?

Translation, rotation, and their combination.

Displacement — role?

Represents change in position as a vector.

Relative velocity — formula?

$oldsymbol{v}_{A/B} = oldsymbol{v}_A - oldsymbol{v}_B$.

Circular motion — key feature?

Movement along a circle with centripetal acceleration.

Uniform motion — characteristic?

Constant velocity, no acceleration.

Projectile motion — components?

Horizontal (constant velocity) and vertical (accelerated).

Relative motion — concept?

Motion of an object as seen from another object.

Angular velocity — symbol?

$oldsymbol{ extomega}$, rate of angle change.

Period — definition?

Time for one complete revolution.

Non-uniform motion — condition?

Velocity changes over time.

Circular motion — acceleration direction?

Toward the circle's center (centripetal).

Kinematic quantities — examples?

Displacement, velocity, acceleration.

General plane motion — what?

Combination of translation and rotation.

Uniform circular motion — speed?

Constant, but velocity direction changes.

Planar motion — key characteristic?

All points stay within a single plane.
