What is meant by uniform circular motion and find out more examples of circular motion in day to day life.
Answers
Explanation:
Uniform circular motion can be described as the motion of an object in a circle at a constant speed.
Examples of circular motion include: an artificial satellite orbiting the Earth at a constant height, a ceiling fan's blades rotating around a hub, a stone which is tied to a rope and is being swung in circles, a car turning through a curve in a race track, an electron moving perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field...
Answer:
Uniform circular motion is an example of the motion where speed remains constant but the velocity changes continuously.
Explanation:
For a body moving along a circular path, the following points are worth noting:
1.if the body covers equal distances in equal intervals of time, then the speed of motion is said to be uniform..
2.when the body completes one rotation its distance travelled is equal to the circumference of the circular path whereas its displacement is zero.
3.speed of the body in circular motion=distance /time i.e,v=2pier /t
4. Circular motion is an accelerated motion because the direction of velocity change at each and every point of the motion.
5.acceleration in circular motion is always directed towards the centre of the circle
