ANGULAR MOTION
Relationship between linear and angular motion
- If point P move around a circle of radius, r with
constant linear speed,
speed v then the angular speed,

ANGULAR MOTION
• Arc length QP is the distance from Q to P.
The symbol of arc length is s.
• It is measured in radians (rad).
s = length of arc QP
s =r
r = radius (m)
= Angle between P and Q

be zero when the
centrifuge reaches its
maximum speed.
• The centripetal
acceleration ( ac )
increases as the tangential
