Uniform circular motion linear motion

• Angular displacement q

• Angular velocity w = Dq/Dt [w] = 1 rad/s

• Angular accelerationa = Dw/Dt [a] = 1 rad/s2

• Displacement x

• Velocity v = Dx/Dt [v] = 1 m/s Accelerationa = Dv/Dt [a] = 1 m/s2

v = 2pr/T, T is period for one rotation

Centripetal acceleration ac = v2/r
