Class 11Physics3-2.Motion in PlaneNon-uniform Circular Motion (Centrifugal/Centripetal and tangential Accelaration)
MediumExplain the effects of the radial component and the tangential component of the linear acceleration of a particle in circular motion.
(N/A) The radial component of acceleration,also known as centripetal acceleration $(a_r = v^2/r)$,is responsible for changing the direction of the linear velocity of the particle.
The tangential component of acceleration $(a_t = dv/dt)$ is responsible for changing the magnitude (speed) of the linear velocity of the particle.
The tangential component of acceleration $(a_t = dv/dt)$ is responsible for changing the magnitude (speed) of the linear velocity of the particle.
