Force and Motion-III: Circular
Motion and Other Applications
Uniform Circular Motion,
Acceleration

A particle moves with a constant speed in a
circular path of radius r with an acceleration:
v2
ac 
r


The centripetal acceleration, a c is directed toward
the center of the circle
The centripetal acceleration is always
perpendicular to the velocity
Uniform Circular Motion, Force



A force, Fr , is
associated with the
centripetal acceleration
The force is also
directed toward the
center of the circle
Applying Newton’s
Second Law along the
radial direction gives
v2
 F  mac  m r
Uniform Circular Motion, cont



A force causing a centripetal
acceleration acts toward the
center of the circle
It causes a change in the
direction of the velocity vector
If the force vanishes, the
object would move in a
straight-line path tangent to
the circle

See various release points in
the active figure
Motion in a Horizontal Circle


The speed at which the object moves
depends on the mass of the object and the
tension in the cord
The centripetal force is supplied by the
tension
T sin θ = m ac
Conical Pendulum

The object is in
equilibrium in the
vertical direction and
undergoes uniform
circular motion in the
horizontal direction


∑Fy = 0 → T cos θ = mg
∑Fx = T sin θ = m ac
v is independent of m
v  Lg sin tan
Horizontal (Flat) Curve


The force of static friction
supplies the centripetal
force
The maximum speed at
which the car can negotiate
the curve is
v  s gr

Note, this does not depend
on the mass of the car
Banked Curve


These are designed with
friction equaling zero
There is a component of
the normal force that
supplies the centripetal
force
v2
tan 
rg
Banked Curve, 2



The banking angle is independent of the
mass of the vehicle
If the car rounds the curve at less than the
design speed, friction is necessary to keep it
from sliding down the bank
If the car rounds the curve at more than the
design speed, friction is necessary to keep it
from sliding up the bank

This is an example of a
vertical circle
At the bottom of the
loop (b), the upward
force (the normal)
experienced by the
object is greater than
its weight

At the top of the circle

on the object is less
than its weight

The gravitational force
exerts a tangential
force on the object

of Fg

point can be found

Motion in Accelerated Frames

A fictitious force results from an accelerated
frame of reference

A fictitious force appears to act on an object in the
same way as a real force, but you cannot identify
a second object for the fictitious force

Remember that real forces are always interactions
between two objects
“Centrifugal” Force



From the frame of the passenger (b), a
force appears to push her toward the door
From the frame of the Earth, the car
applies a leftward force on the passenger
The outward force is often called a
centrifugal force


It is a fictitious force due to the centripetal
acceleration associated with the car’s
change in direction
In actuality, friction supplies the force
to allow the passenger to move with
the car

If the frictional force is not large enough,
the passenger continues on her initial
path according to Newton’s First Law
Fictitious Forces in Linear
Systems

The inertial observer (a) at rest
sees

Motion with Resistive Forces

Motion can be through a medium





Either a liquid or a gas
The medium exerts a resistive force, R , on an object
moving through the medium
The magnitude of R depends on the medium
The direction of R is opposite the direction of motion
of the object relative to the medium
R nearly always increases with increasing speed
Motion with Resistive Forces,
cont


The magnitude of R can depend on the
speed in complex ways
We will discuss only two
 R is proportional to v


Good approximation for slow motions or small objects
R is proportional to v2

Good approximation for large objects
Resistive Force Proportional
To Speed

The resistive force can be expressed as
R  bv


b depends on the property of the medium,
and on the shape and dimensions of the
object
The negative sign indicates R is in the
opposite direction to v


Initially, v = 0 and dv/dt = g
As t increases, R increases
and a decreases
The acceleration
approaches 0 when R 
mg
At this point, v approaches
the terminal speed of the
object

To find the terminal speed,
let a = 0

For objects moving at high speeds through air, the
resistive force is approximately equal to the square
of the speed
R = ½ DrAv2

D is a dimensionless empirical quantity called the drag
coefficient

Initial velocity is 0
Gravity causes
downward acceleration
Downward speed
increases, but so does
upward resistive force


Some time after reaching terminal speed, the
parachute is opened
Produces a drastic increase in the upward
resistive force
Net force, and acceleration, are now upward


The downward velocity decreases
Eventually a new, smaller, terminal speed is
reached
