Circular Motion
• This week we will:
• Study the response of a system subjected to
uniform circular motion
Problem A: Theoretical analysis of motion of a body in uniform circular motion
Problem B: Experimental analysis of uniform circular motion
• Use a video capture system to acquire data and Matlab to
simulate system

EXECUTE: Calculate the Acceleration Components
By taking the first derivative of the Velocity components with
respect to time we determine the acceleration components.

Which of the following statements is CORRECT with
respect to the centripetal acceleration?
• Select your Answer:
A.
B.
C.
D.
It is directly related to the distance R
It is inversely related to the distance R
It is directly related to the velocity v
It is inversely related to the velocity v

A.
B.
C.
D.
It is directly related to the distance R
It is inversely related to the distance R
It is directly related to the velocity v
It is inversely related to the velocity v
EXECUTE: Calculate the “Centripetal” Acceleration
Note that the acceleration is constant with respect to time
since x2(t) + y2(t) = R2 !
This acceleration is a result of the changing direction of
motion, and is referenced as the “Centripetal Acceleration”.
FORMULATE: Problem B: State the Known and Desired Information
FORMULATE: Identify Assumptions
B.
Also neglect all Frictional effects associated with the bearing
in the armature and pendulum.

We need to make sure we account for “perceived” side view
distances of the Armature length and the pendulum rod length!

CHART: Free Body Diagram of the Bob
The Bob mass has 2 Forces acting on it - The Weight and the
Tension force in the pendulum rod.
The system achieves a form of Equilibrium when subjected to a
uniform circular motion.
Execute: Derive Equations
Using Newton’s 2nd Law we sum forces in both the “radial” and “z”
directions:
We observe that the angular displacement q is a constant when the
armature is revolved at a constant angular speed. This implies that there
is no acceleration in the z direction.
Execute: Derive Equations
Substituting the relationship for “T” from our analysis in the z-direction
gives:
Equation 12.45 provides us with a convenient experimental means to
measure the centripetal acceleration of our system.
Test: Comparing Theoretical to Experimental Acceleration Values
Equations 12.24 and 12.45 provide us with relationships to determine the
theoretical and experimental centripetal acceleration values.
Recall that the distance from the orign to the center of the mass of the
Bob is given by:
