FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What happens to the centripetal acceleration of an object as the radius of its circular path decreases?
Back
The centripetal acceleration increases.
2.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
In circular motion, what is the direction of the centripetal force relative to the velocity of the object?
Back
The centripetal force is directed towards the center of the circular path, while the velocity is tangent to the path.
3.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do you calculate centripetal acceleration (Ac)?
Back
Ac = v^2 / r, where v is the tangential speed and r is the radius of the circular path.
4.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the relationship between tangential speed and centripetal acceleration?
Back
Centripetal acceleration increases with the square of the tangential speed.
5.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the definition of uniform circular motion?
Back
Uniform circular motion is the motion of an object traveling at a constant speed along a circular path.
6.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the formula for centripetal force (Fc)?
Back
Fc = m * Ac, where m is the mass of the object and Ac is the centripetal acceleration.
7.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the effect of mass on centripetal force?
Back
Centripetal force increases with the mass of the object if the centripetal acceleration remains constant.
