This type of motion is seen if an object is travelling at a constant speed around a fixed axis or center point, and the object travels around a curved path and it maintains a constant radial distance from the center point at any given time and it moves in a tangent to the curved path. The resultant acceleration is the vector sum of radial acceleration and tangential acceleration. Velocity is defined by speed and direction, so although an objects speed is constant, its direction changes constantly as it moves around a circle.

The change in speed has implications for radial centripetal acceleration. We already know the acceleration, so can immediately write the force.
As an object moves in a circle, it is constantly changing its direction. Uniform circular motion is when an object is moving at a constant speed in a circular path. In our daytoday life, we come across motions where objects cover unequal distances in equal intervals of time, for example, when a car is moving on a crowded street or a person is jogging in a park.

In the figure, the velocity vector v of the particle is constant in magnitude, but it changes in direction by an amount. Pdf an observation of a circular motion using ordinary. The point a is closest to the center, and point c is farthest away. A body has non uniform circular motion when its trajectory is a circumference and its angular acceleration is constant. The velocity vector is tangent to the trajectory at each point and, in addition, its magnitude changes evenly with time. In all instances, the object is moving tangent to the circle. Centripetal acceleration is a requirement for circular motion and as such it should be non zero.
Solving applications dealing with non uniform circular motion involves force analysis. It follows then that nonuniform circular motion denotes a change in the speed of the particle moving along the circular path as shown in the figure. Assume the solid disk rotates clockwise in uniform circular motion and has three non aligned points, each at a different distance from the center. In uniform circular motion although the speed remains constant the direct. He is driving on a circular track with a radius of 600. In non uniform circular motion, the size of the velocity vector speed changes, denoting change in the magnitude of velocity. Nonuniform circular motion in all strictness, we have derived the expression for radial acceleration for uniform circular motion the derived formulae actually apply for nonuniform circular motion, as long as the radius of the trajectory is constant.
