What is the direction of the force that's keeps and object moving in a circle?
The centripetal force which always acts perpendicular to the motion of the object
What provides the centripetal force for a basket being whirled in a vertical circle?
Whatever is holding the basket - for example, your arm.
Which statements applied to abody moving in a circle at constant speed?
a 10 g mass is whirled along a horizontal circular.what force maintains the motion along the circle?
Is it possible for a body to move in a circle with constant speed constant linear velocity?
While your speed may be the same, your direction is constantly changing. So there is an angular acceleration. The force caused by this is called centripetal force, and it points towards the center of the circle. You can know this by feeling it, or by drawing a picture of the force system. Acceleration is broken up into normal and tangential components for rotation. The tangential is zero because you are moving at a constant speed, however the normal is not zero, and points to the center of the circle by definition.
Quantity that remains constant during uniform circular motion?
-- tangential speed -- angular velocity -- kinetic energy -- magnitude of momentum -- radius of the circle -- centripetal acceleration
What is A sentence using tangential?
Look, the tangential line is touching a semi circle.
What is the direction of the force that's keeps and object moving in a circle?
The centripetal force which always acts perpendicular to the motion of the object
A model airplane is tethered by a wire so that it flies in a circle How could you calculate the tangential speed of the airplane if the line breaks?
If you simply measure the circumference of its orbit (length of string multiplied by 6.282) and then the time it takes to complete a lap, you will find out its speed. This should be the same as the tangential speed if the tether breaks.
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 parallel or tangential to the surface of a circle?
a crescent
What is tangential quadrilateral?
A tangential quadrilateral is a four sided polygon such that each of its sides is tangent to the same circle.
Where might you see an externally tangent circle?
On a road. The tyre of a car on the road is tangential to the road and so tangential to the earth.
What is linear speed called when something moves in a circle?
Tangential speed
How long are each side of an octagon 24 inch circle?
The answer depends on whether the octagon is inside the circle or outside (tangential).
Objects that move along a circular path are they accelerated toward the outer edge of the circle?
Actually, objects moving around a circular path have two accelerations i.e. radial acceleration and tangential acceleration. Radial acceleration is towards the radius whereas tangential acceleration is the acceleration along the direction of the tangent to the path of the motion. So, I would say yes, they are accelerated towards the outer edge of the circle.
What provides the centripetal force for a basket being whirled in a vertical circle?
Whatever is holding the basket - for example, your arm.
What does a cone net look like?
A circle with a radius equal to the base of the cone. This circle will be tangential to a segment of a circle whose arc is the same length as the circle, and whose radius is the slant height of the cone.
