What is a force?

What forces were acting on the car that makes it go in a circle?

a push or a pull

Ladybug Motion

Ladybug Motion

Physics Talk 1.7 Notes

Why does the car turn?

Newton’s Law: an object in motion will stay in motion in a straight line at a constant speed unless a force acts on it.

Force toward the center of the circle keeps the object moving in a circle

Physics Talk 1.7 Notes

What is centripetal force?

The force directed toward the center to keep an object moving in a circular path. String on car Friction between

block and turntable Friction between

wheels and road

Physics Talk 1.7 Notes

What is centripetal acceleration?

Remember:Speed:

change in distance per unit time

Velocity:change in distance per unit time in a direction.

Acceleration:change in velocity per unit time

Centripetal acceleration: change in direction of velocity with respect to time

How do you calculate speed of a turning object?

V=d/t Circumfrence=2∏r V=2∏r/t

SOLVE

A student is spinning a turntable with a wooden block resting on it. The block is located 40 cm from the center of the table and the turntable is rotating 20 times every minute. What is the speed of the wooden block on the turn table?

Quick Notes:

How can an object accelerate with out changing it’s speed?

Grab an accelerometer and see if you can accelerate while moving at constant speed. What did you do?

Quick Notes
