How do you find tangential velocity?

Tangential velocity is equal to (mass x velocity^2)/radial distance


What is tangential velocity and tangential acceleration?

Vt=w*r where; * is multiply Vt is tangential velocity w is omega(angular mometum) r is radius


Is it possible to have positive instantaneous tangential velocity and negative instantaneous tangential acceleration?

Yes. Imagine a ball on a rigid pole being swung around, and slowing down. It's tangential velocity is positive but it's tangential acceleration is negative


How do you convert radians per second to meters per second?

the tangential velocity is equal to the angular velocity multiplied by the radius the tangential velocity is equal to the angular velocity multiplied by the radius


The tangential velocity of an Earth satellite is its velocity?

parallel to the surface of the Earth


Is the tangential velocity of a rotating object greater when it is close to the center of rotation or when it is far from the center of rotation?

The tangential velocity is greater as the radius of the point on the rotating object increases. For a rotating object v = rw Where v is the tangential velocity r is the radius of the point And "w" is omega or angular velocity (in radians per second)


Is angular velocity the same as tangential velocity?

No. If you can drive around a ten-mile track in the same time it takes you to drive around a one-mile track, then your angular velocity is the same in both cases. But in order to do that, you'll need much higher tangential velocity during the longer run. Tangential velocity is what you'd normally call your 'speed' as you blaze around the track.


Why tangential acceleration is not produced in uniform circular motion?

Because there is no tangential force acting on the object in uniform circular motion. The proof that there is no tangential component of acceleration is the fact that the tangential component of velocity is constant.


What is the tangential velocity and centripetal acceleration of the earth moving around the sun?

Tangential velocity squared is GMs/r and velocity v =29814m/s and the centripetal acceleration is v2/r= 5.928 E-3 m/s2


What is the difference between tangential and radial acceleration?

Answer Both refer to an object that is in a cirular motion. Radial Acceleration is a velocity change of the object as it moves away from the center of rotation. Tangential Velocity is a change of velocity of the object as it moves in a line that is tangential to the circular path it is moving.


What is the unit of tangential speed and linear speed?

Tangential speed is how fast a point on a circular object is moving at a certain distance from the center whereas rotational speed is how many degrees (or radians) a point on the circle goes through in a period of time. Every point on a circle has the same rotational speed. The further out you go from the center, the higher the tangential speed is.


What kind of velocity is provided by the news channel in reference to a tornado Is it tangential velocity or angular velocity?

In terms of wind velocity, it would be tangential velocity, as that is what tells the speed at which the wind is actually moving. Though in truth it is somewhat more complicated than this, as a tornado does not behave as a simple rotating object. In terms of a tornado's traveling velocity, it is linear velocity, as a tornado will generally move along a mostly straight path.
