We solve for centripetal acceleration, centripetal force, and tangential velocity. In this Closer Look segment on circular motion, we investigate circular motion and solve for centripetal acceleration ...

Learn circular motion from start to finish with a clear and easy-to-follow explanation. This guide covers key concepts like ...

Segment 3G: Circular Motion We explore the concept of circular motion. Segment 3G: Circular Motion We travel to an amusement park to explore circular motion. We work through an example problem and ...

It's odd that I have talked about these forces so much. First, I talked about how centrifugal forces were not real and the difference between centrifugal and centripetal forces. Then I talked about ...

Have you ever thrown your spare change into a coin vortex like the one we used to have in the gift shop at ECHO? When you put a coin in this, the coin spins around and around until eventually it ...

In this video, we break down the math behind centripetal acceleration in circular motion. From the basics to the formula, we’ll show you how acceleration works when an object moves in a circle!
