Chapter 17:
Circular motion
Learning outcomes
You should be able to:
■■ express angular displacement in radians
■■ solve problems using the concept of angular velocity
■■ describe motion along a circular path as due to
a perpendicular force which causes a centripetal
acceleration
■■ recall and use equations for centripetal acceleration
and for centripetal force
