Dynamics of Uniform Circular Motion

Introduction to Uniform Circular Motion A uniform circular motion is defined as a body travelling in a circular direction at a constant speed.  When an object moves in a circle, it is constantly changing its course. The item is always moving in a tangent to the circle. Since the rate vector’s path is identical to […]

Derivation of expression

 Introduction:  The Kinetic energy of a rotating body or angular kinetic energy is kinetic energy obtained due to the rotation of an object and is some part of its total kinetic energy. It can be changed from the work of both types of forces and thus conservative forces must change the system’s potential energy to

comparison of linear and rotational motions

Motion means the movement of any object. If an object is moving from the fixed point to another then, it is said to be in motion. So, whenever the object is changing its position it covers some distance. The total path covered during the motion is known as distance. It requires only magnitude. The shortest

Banking of roads

The technique of raising the outer border of curving roadways to create an inclination in the road so that cars have the required centrifugal force to turn safely is known as ‘banking.’ Banking of the road is given when the edges of a curved road are extended above the inner edge, the appropriate centripetal force

Angular Velocity linear Velocity

In physics, angular velocity, also known as rotational velocity or angular frequency vector, is a vector measure of rotation rate that describes how quickly an object spins or revolves relative to another point, that is how quickly the angular position or direction of an object changes over time. In simple terms we can say angular

Angular Velocity

The speed at which an item rotates or circles around an axis, or the rate at which the angular displacement between two bodies varies, is called angular velocity. Angular velocities are usually represented in revolutions per minute (rpm). In many cases, an angular velocity usually denoted by the Greek letter omega () and is alternatively

Angular Frequency

Angular frequency can be defined as the angular displacement that takes place per unit of time. The angular frequency can also be defined as the rate at which the phase of a sinusoidal waveform changes. On multiplying frequency (v) by 2π, we can obtain the angular frequency. Therefore, it can be said that the angular

Accelerated Pure Rolling

The rate of change of an object’s velocity with respect to time is called acceleration in mechanics. Accelerations are quantities that are measured in vectors. The orientation of the net force acting on an object determines the orientation of its acceleration. Newton’s Second Law describes the magnitude of an object’s acceleration as the combined effect

A Comparison of Linear and Rotational Motions

Motion is the first phenomenon that humankind observed. From humans walking to the earth’s rotation, there are thousands of everyday examples of motion. However, motion can be classified into two major types, linear and rotational motion. The distinction between these types of motion is the type of displacement that occurs. While linear motion deals with

A Brief Note on Moment of Force

Have you ever witnessed the spinning wheels generating power? Or saw the car engines spinning to produce energy? All such phenomena in physics are defined as moment of a force. Force is a crucial part of any movement that physics explains. Be it the push and pull effect or the rotational axis. Force plays a
