8.1 Motion in Circles
We say an object rotates about its axis when the axis is part of the moving object.
A child revolves on a merry-go-round because he is external to the merry-go-round's axis.
8.1 Angular Speed Angular speed is the rate
at which an object rotates or revolves.
There are two ways to measure angular speed
— number of turns per unit of time (rotations/minute)
— change in angle per unit of time (deg/sec or rad/sec)
8.1 Angular Speed
For the purpose of angular speed, the radian is a better unit for angles.
One radian is approx. 57.3 degrees.
Radians are better for angular speed because a radian is a ratio of two lengths.
8.1 Angular Speed

Angular speed (rad/sec)
8.1 Calculate angular speed
A bicycle wheel makes six turns in 2 seconds.
What is its angular speed in radians per second?
8.1 Linear and Angular Speed A wheel rolling along the ground has both a linear speed
and an angular speed.
A point at the edge of a wheel moves one circumference in each turn of the circle.

*This formula is used in automobile speedometers based on a tire's radius.
8.1 Calculate linear from angular speed
Siv is standing 4 meters from the axis of rotation and Holly is standing 2 meters from the axis.
Calculate each child’s linear speed when the angular speed of the merry go-round is 1 rad/sec.
Two children are spinning around on a merry-go-round.
8.1 Linear and Angular Speed and Displacement
8.1 Calculate angular from linear speed
The bicycle is moving forward with a linear speed of 11 m/sec.
Assume the bicycle wheels are not slipping and calculate the angular speed of the wheels in RPM.
A bicycle has wheels that are 70 cm in diameter (35 cm radius).
8.2 Centripetal Force
Key Question:
Why does a roller coaster stay on a track upside down on a loop?
*Students read Section 8.2 AFTER Investigation 8.2
8.2 Centripetal Force We usually think of acceleration as a change in speed.
Because velocity includes both speed and direction, acceleration can also be a change in the direction of motion.
8.2 Centripetal Force Any force that causes an object to move in a circle is called a centripetal force.
A centripetal force is always perpendicular to an object’s motion, toward the center of the circle.
8.2 Centripetal Force
Fc = mv2

Linear speed(m/sec)

8.2 Calculate centripetal force
A 50-kilogram passenger on an amusement park ride stands with his back against the wall of a cylindrical room with radius of 3 m.
What is the centripetal force of the wall pressing into his back when the room spins and he is moving at 6 m/sec?
8.2 Centripetal Acceleration Acceleration is the rate at which an object’s velocity changes as
the result of a force.
Centripetal acceleration is the acceleration of an object moving in a circle due to the centripetal force.
8.2 Centripetal Acceleration
ac = v2

8.2 Calculate centripetal acceleration
A motorcycle drives around a bend with a 50-meter radius at 10 m/sec.
Find the motor cycle’s centripetal acceleration and compare it with g, the acceleration of gravity.
8.2 Centrifugal Force
Although the centripetal force pushes you toward the center of the circular path...
...it seems as if there also is a force pushing you to the outside. This apparent outward force is called centrifugal force.
We call an object’s tendency to resist a change in its motion its inertia.
An object moving in a circle is constantly changing its direction of motion.
8.2 Centrifugal Force
This is easy to observe by twirling a small object at the end of a string.
When the string is released, the object flies off in a straight line tangent to the circle.
Centrifugal force is not a true force exerted on your body.
It is simply your tendency to move in a straight line due to inertia.
8.3 Universal Gravitation and Orbital Motion
Key Question:
How strong is gravity in other places in the universe?
*Students read Section 8.3 AFTER Investigation 8.3
8.3 Universal Gravitation and Orbital Motion Sir Isaac Newton first deduced
that the force responsible for making objects fall on Earth is the same force that keeps the moon in orbit.
This idea is known as the law of universal gravitation.
Gravitational force exists between all objects that have mass.
The strength of the gravitational force depends on the mass of the objects and the distance between them.

8.3 Calculate gravitational force
The mass of the moon is 7.36 × 1022 kg.
The radius of the moon is 1.74 × 106 m.
Use the equation of universal gravitation to calculate the weight of a 90 kg astronaut on the surface of the moon.
8.3 Orbital Motion A satellite is an object
that is bound by gravity to another object such as a planet or star.
If a satellite is launched above Earth at more than 8 kilometers per second, the orbit will be a noncircular ellipse.
A satellite in an elliptical orbit does not move at a constant speed.
