Angular Displacement, Velocity, and Acceleration

Science > Physics > Circular Motion > Angular Displacement, Velocity, and Acceleration Angular Displacement: For a particle performing a circular motion the angle, traced by the radius vector at the centre of the circular path in a given time is called the angular displacement of the particle at that time. It is denoted by ‘θ’. Its […]

Introduction to Circular Motion

Science > Physics > Circular Motion > Introduction Concept of Circular Motion: The motion of a particle along the circumference of a circle is called circular motion. It is a translational motion along a curved path. Examples: The motion of the earth around the sun. The motion of a satellite around the planet. The motion of […]
