What is tha radial and transverse acceleration?
Answers
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.
