Review Problem: : Your car’s wheels are 65 cm in diameter and are spinning at ω = 101 rads/sec. How fast in km/hour is the car traveling, assuming no slipping?

Given:

d = 65 cm = 0.65 m

ω = 101 rads/sec

Find:

v = ?

Idea: since the car is moving with constant velocity, divide total path to total time!

The time it takes to go one time around a closed path is called the period (T).

Circular Orbits

Consider an object of mass m in a circular orbit about the Earth.

The only force on the satellite is the force of gravity:

This orbit is called geosynchronous and is used for TV satellites!

Kepler’s Laws

 All planets move in elliptical orbits with the Sun at one of the focal points.

 A line drawn from the Sun to any planet sweeps out equal areas in equal time intervals.

 The square of the orbital period of any planet is proportional to cube of the average distance from the Sun to the planet.

Kepler’s First Law

  All planets move in elliptical orbits with the Sun at one focus. • Any object bound to

another by an inverse square law will move in an elliptical path

• Second focus is empty

Kepler’s Second Law

 A line drawn from the Sun to any planet will sweep out equal areas in equal times • Area from A to B and C to

D are the same

Kepler’s Third Law  The square of the orbital period of any planet is proportional

to cube of the average distance from the Sun to the planet.

•  For orbit around the Sun, KS = 2.97x10-19 s2/m3 •  K is independent of the mass of the planet

Example: The Hubble Space Telescope orbits Earth 613 km above Earth’s surface. What is the period of the telescope’s orbit?

Need v! To find it, write 2nd Newton’s law:

T = 2πrv

Idea: period T is the time needed to

complete one revolution, i.e. a path of

length s = 2πr! So,

⇒ T = 2π r3

Total Acceleration

  What happens if linear velocity also changes?

  Two-component acceleration: •  the centripetal component of the

acceleration is due to changing direction

•  the tangential component of the acceleration is due to changing speed

 Total acceleration can be found from these components:

Example: A disk rotates with constant angular acceleration. The initial angular speed of the disk is 2 π rad/s. After the disk rotates through 10π radians, the angular speed is 7π rad/s. (a) What is the magnitude of the angular acceleration? (b) How much time did it take for the disk to rotate through 10π radians? (c) What is the tangential acceleration of a point located at a distance of 5.0 cm from the center of the disk?
