CHAPTER 1 : CIRCULAR MOTION ( 6 MARKS)
PART 1: UNIFORM CIRCULAR MOTION
Definition: The motion of a body moving in circular path with a constant speed iscalled Uniform Circular Motion.
Characteristics (Features) of Uniform Circular Motion: The speed of the body is constant The magnitude of acceleration of the body is constant. The angular velocity of the body always remains constant. The kinetic energy of the body remains constant. The direction of the acceleration is towards the center of the circle. The linear velocity of body is along the tangent to the path.
TERMS AND DEFINITIONS RELATED TO UCM
Time taken by a body in uniform circular motion to complete one revolution iscalled the Period of Revolution.
Number of revolutions completed in unit time by a body in uniform circularmotion is called the Frequency of Revolution. The SI unit of frequency is Hz
Angle traced by radius vector in a given time is called Angular Displacement.For angular displacement the SI unit is radian and dimension formula is[M0L0T0] i.e. it is dimensionless
Angular Velocity: The rate of change of angular displacement with time iscalled angular velocity.The SI unit of angular velocity is rad/sec and dimension formula is [M0L0T-1]
Angular Acceleration: Rate of change of angular velocity with time is calledangular acceleration. The SI unit of angular acceleration is rad/sec2 andthe dimension formula is [M0L0T-2]
The directions of angular displacement, angular velocity and angular accelerationare given by the right hand rule:

Right Hand Rule: Consider the axis of rotation in the right hand with fingers curledround the axis and thumb stretched along the axis , then curled fingers show senseof rotation, and the thumb shows direction of angular displacement, angular velocityand angular acceleration
KINEMATICAL EQUATIONS FOR CIRCULAR MOTION For Linear Motion: Let u = initial linear velocity, v = final linear velocity, a =
linear acceleration, s = linear displacement. The kinematic equations for linearmotion are :
v = u + a t ; v2 = u2 + 2 a s ; s = u t + ½ a t2
For circular motion: Let = initial angular velocity, = final angularvelocity,= angular acceleration, = angular displacement. By analogy, the kinematicequations for angular motion are :
= 0 + t ; 2 = 2 + 2 = t + ½ t2
Questions:
1. Define Uniform Circular Motion and give its characteristics2. In Uniform Circular Motion define the following : (a) Frequency of revolution
(b) Period of revolution3. Define: Angular displacement, Angular velocity and Angular acceleration. Also,
give their directions and S.I. units.4. State kinematical equations for circular motion in analogy with linear motion.5. Give the vector representation of angular velocity.
DERIVATION: Relation between linear speed and angular speed in UCM.
The distance covered in unit time by a particle in uniform circular motion iscalled the Linear Speed. The angle traced in unit time by a particle in uniformcircular motion is called Angular Speed.
Consider a particle performing uniform circular motion asshown. Let : r = radius of the orbit ; = angular velocity ;v = linear velocity. Suppose that the particle moves distanceAB = s in time t.Using : arc AB = radius angle, we have
s = r. t

Hence we get : v = r i.e. linear speed = radius angular speed. This equationgives magnitude of linear velocity.
` 1-3
Direction of Linear Velocity: If t then points A and B are very close to each
other. In this case displacement vector AB
is tangent to circle i.e. v
is tangent to
the circle. Thus v
and r
are in plane of circle and perpendicular to each other.
Also is perpendicular to plane of circle. Thus v
, and r
are related to
each other by right hand rule. In vector form we can write: v
=
r
DERIVATION : Linear Acceleration of particle in UCM (Vector Method)
Consider a particle performing uniform circularmotion as shown. Suppose in time t the particlemoves from point A to point B.
Let : = angular velocity of the particler = radius of the circular path
v1
= velocity vector of particle at A
v2
= velocity vector of particle at B
The speed is constant, hence |v1
| = |v2
| = v . However v1
and v2
havedifferent directions. To find the change in velocity v we use the method of
vectors. Suppose PR
represent the velocity vector at A and PQ
represent thevelocity vector at B. Then by triangle law of vectors we have:
PR
+ RQ
= PQ
RQ
= PQ
– PR
RQ
= Velocity at B – Velocity at A
Thus RQ
represents the change in velocity v
RQ = v (in magnitude) . . . (1)
Also when the angle is small i.e. we have
RQ = v. . . . (2)
Hence, from (1) and (2) we get : v = v

This gives magnitude of linear acceleration. Also using v = r , we can write :
Linear acceleration: a = v= r2
Direction of Linear acceleration: If t then points B A are very close toeach other. This means v is along radius and towards center of circle. Alsoacceleration a and v have same direction.
Hence in uniform circular motion, the acceleration of particle is along radius andtowards center of circle. This acceleration is called centripetal acceleration. Also
in vector form we write:
ra 2 where negative sign shows thata and r
have opposite directions.
DERIVATION: Linear Acceleration of particle in UCM (Calculus Method)
Consider a particle performing uniform circular motionas shown. Suppose that the particle moves from pointA to point P in time t.The angular displacement of particle is = t , wherer = radius and = angular velocity. From the figure:
OM = r.cos= r.costON = r.sin= r.sint
Let i

This equation gives both the magnitude and direction of linear acceleration. The
magnitude of linear acceleration is a = r 2 and negative sigh shows thata and
r
have opposite directions. This acceleration is called centripetal acceleration
Questions:
1. For a body in uniform circular motion, obtain the relation between linearspeed (velocity) and angular speed (velocity) in uniform circular motion.
2. Derive the expression for (linear) acceleration of a particle performing UniformCircular Motion.
3. Using calculus method, derive the expression for linear acceleration of aparticle performing uniform circular motion.
CENTRIPETAL AND CENTRIFUGAL FORCES
A body performs circular motion with help of centripetal force. This force isdirected towards the centre of the circular path. Definition: The radial force towards the centre of circle when a particle
performs uniform circular motion is called centripetal force. Example: When a satellite moves in a circular orbit round earth the
centripetal force is provided by gravitational force of attraction between earthand satellite.
Formula: Centripetal force = mv2/r = m2r , where m = mass of body, v =linear velocity, r = radius of orbit , and = angular velocity
A body in circular motion, experiences a force in outward direction. This force isaway from the center of circle and is called centrifugal force.
Definition: The radial force away from the centre of the circle when a particleperforms uniform circular motion is called centrifugal force.
Example: Passengers inside a bus, which is taking a turn, will experience acentrifugal force. This force tries to push them in outward direction.
Formula: Centrifugal force = mv2/r = m2r , where m = mass of body, v =linear velocity, r = radius of orbit , and = angular velocity
Centrifugal force and centripetal force are equal but they have oppositedirection. The centrifugal force is not due to any interaction between bodies. Itis due to acceleration of frame of reference. Centrifugal force is an example ofpseudo force i.e. it is not a real force.
Questions:
1. What do you understand by centrifugal force?2. What do you understand by centripetal force?3. Distinguish between centripetal force and centrifugal force

BANKING OF ROADS
Banking of roads: This is an arrangement in which the outer side of a curvedroad is raised to higher level than the inner side. The angle between thehorizontal and the inclined road surface is called the angle of banking.
Need for banking: Consider a vehicle to move along a circular path Centripetal force is required to move along a curved path. This is provided by
the friction between the road and the tyres. For a fast moving vehicle, this friction force is very small and there is danger
of being thrown off the road. In addition, friction causes wear and tear oftyres.
These problems can be solved by banking of roads. The vehicle is not thrownoff the road and it can round the curve safely.
When a road is banked at a proper angle, the required centripetal force isprovided by the horizontal component of the normal reaction.
DERIVATION: Expression for Maximum Speed on banked road.Expression for Angle of Banking for a banked road.
Consider a car rounding a curve. Let : m = mass of the vehicle ; v = maximumvelocity of the car ; = angle of banking ; r = radius of the curve
As shown in figure, the two forces acting on the car are:Normal reaction (N) and the Weight (mg) of the carThe normal reaction is perpendicular to the road surface.It can be resolved in two components as:
Vertical component is N.cos: This componentbalances weight mg of car
N cos = mg . . . . . (1) Horizontal component is N.sin: This component
provides centripetal forceN sin= mv2/ r . . . . . (2)

tan = v2 / rg tanrgv .
This expression gives the maximum speed. We also have : = tan-1
rgv 2
This expression gives the Angle of Banking. We find that the angle of bankingdepends on: The maximum speed (v) the vehicle The radius (r) of curve The acceleration due to gravity (g).Also the expression for angle of banking does not involve mass (m) of the vehicle.It means that angle of banking does not depend on mass of vehicle.
Questions:1. What is banking of roads? Why is it necessary?2. Derive an expression for the maximum speed on a banked road.3. Derive an expression for the angle of banking for a banked road.4. Write the expression for angle of banking. State the factors on which the
angle of banking depends.5. Show that the angle of banking does not depend on mass of a vehicle.
CONICAL PENDULUM; MOTION IN HORIZONTAL CIRCLE
Conical Pendulum: A conical pendulum consists of a body (bob) attached to oneend of a light inextensible string. The bob moves in horizontal circle with uniformspeed and the string describes a cone of semivertical angle .
DERIVATION: Expression for Speed of bob in case of conical pendulum
Consider a conical pendulum as shown. Let : m =mass of bob ; l = length of the string ; v = speed ofcircular motion of bob ; r = radius of path.
At point P, the forces acting on bob are : TensionForce (T) in string and the Weight (mg) of bob. Thetension force can be resolved in two components as :
Vertical component – T.cos: This componentbalances weight mg of bob
T cos = mg . . . (1) Horizontal component – T.sin: This component
provides centripetal force required for circularmotion.

MOTION IN VERTICAL CIRCLE
DERIVATION: Expression For Minimum Velocity at highest and lowest points foruniform circular motion in a vertical circle.
` 1-9
Consider a body tied to the end of a string and whirled round in a vertical path sothat it just completes the vertical circle. As shown A is the lowest point and B isthe highest point.
Let m = mass of body ( weight of body = mg )r = radius of the circular pathVA = velocity of body at point AVB = velocity of body at point BTA = tension in string at point ATB = tension in string at point B
At point A, a part of tension balances the weight ofbody. The remaining part provides the centripetalforce.

Minimum Velocity at Top: For minimum velocity at top, the tension at highestpoint will be, zero. In this case, equation (2) becomes
mvB2
r = 0 + mg vB = gr
This is the minimum velocity at point B for which the body will just completethe circle. If velocity at B is less than gr , the body will not complete the circleand the string will slack.
Minimum Velocity at Bottom: To find the minimum velocity at the bottom, weuse the principle of conservation of energy.We have: P.E. at A = 0
P.E. at B = mgh (where h = 2r )K.E. at A = ½ mvA2
K.E. at B = ½ mvB2 (where vB = gr )
The total energy at A is: EA = P.E. at A + K.E. at A EA = 0 + ½ mvA2
EA = ½ mvA2
The total energy at B is: EA = P.E. at B + K.E. at B EB = mgh + ½ mvB2
EB = mg(2r) + ½ m(gr)
EB =52 mgr
The total energy is conserved, hence: EB = EB

Related Notes: Total Energy of Body at various points on Circle
As shown in figure, consider the position of a body atpoints A, B and C on the circle. We have to find totalenergy at these points.
At Point A : The body is at lowest point i.e. h = 0 .Hence body has only K.E.
Total energy at A = ½ mVA2 + mgh= ½ m( gr5 )2 + mg(0)
=25
mgr + 0 =25
mgr
At Point B: The body is raised through height = 2r.Hence the body has both K.E. and P.E.
Total Energy at B = ½ mVB2 + mgh = ½ m( gr )2 + mg(2r)
= ½ mgr + 2 mgr =25 mgr
At Point C : The body is raised through height = r. Hence the body has bothK.E. and P.E.
Total Energy at C = ½ mVC2 + mgh = ½ m( gr3 )2 + mg(r)
=23
mgr + mgr =25
mgr
We find that: Kinetic energy and potential energy of the body in vertical circularmotion changes but total energy at every point is same. Thus, energy is conservedin vertical circular motion.
The energy i.e.25
mgr is also the minimum energy that a body must have to be
able to perform vertical circular motion.
SHOW THAT: In vertical motion for a body tied atthe end of a string, the difference in string tension athighest and lowest points is 6 times the weight ofbody
Consider a body tied to end of a string and whirledround in a vertical path so that it is just completesthe vertical circle. As shown A is lowest point and Bis the highest point.
