Question

What is tha radial and transverse acceleration?

Answer 1

Answer:

Radial And Transverse Components

To understand about the radial and transverse components, let us take curvilinear motion.

Shown below is the figure of an object at point P from fixed origin position O and the relationship between radial and transverse components.

The figure shows a particle, point P that moves in a straight motion which results into two components; radial and transverse components. The radial component is denoted as er moving radially in an outward direction from point O to P and the transverse component is denoted as e q.

er and e q are unit vectors and P is the position vector.

The position vector is expressed as

Here, radius from point O to P is r.

Use the product rule and find the general equation for velocity at point P.

The radial velocity refers to the path of an object that moves in a straight line from a fixed point (O).

The transverse velocity refers to an object P that moves in a a path at right angle θ to the origin path from fixed point O.
