- Circular Motion
- Express angular displacement in radians and in degrees and convert between those units
- Explain the concept of angular velocity
- Use the relationships v = w r and T = 2 / w
- Derive & use the expressions for centripetal acceleration a = v / r & a = r w
- Explain that a resultant force (centripetal force) is required to produce and maintain circular motion.
- Use the expression for centripetal force F = ma = m v / r
