PHYS 1511 Chapter Notes -Kinematics

Describe the motion of an object for which the direction of the acceleration is the same as the direction of motion of an object?

Circular Motion The position of an object in circular motion is modeled by the given parametric equations. Describe the path of the object by stating the radius of the circle, the position at time t = 0, the orientation of the motion (clockwise or counterclockwise), and the time t that it takes to complete one revolution around the circle.

The initial position, velocity, and acceleration of an object moving in simple harmonic motion are  ; the angular frequency of oscillation is   . (a) Show that the position and velocity of the object for all time can be written as

(b) Using A to represent the amplitude of the motion, show that
