  2. v = r/ω
  3. v = ω²r
  4. v = r²ω

Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the relationship between the angular velocity (ω) and the linear velocity (v) in circular motion?
  • Step 1: Understand that angular velocity (ω) measures how fast something is rotating around a circle.
  • Step 2: Know that linear velocity (v) measures how fast something is moving along the edge of the circle.
  • Step 3: Identify the radius (r) of the circular path, which is the distance from the center of the circle to the edge.
  • Step 4: Use the formula v = ωr to find the relationship between linear velocity and angular velocity.
  • Step 5: Remember that if you increase the radius (r), the linear velocity (v) will also increase for the same angular velocity (ω).
  • Step 6: Conversely, if you increase the angular velocity (ω), the linear velocity (v) will increase as well, assuming the radius remains constant.
