so should i post my AS questions there from now ?

Yes, that'll be better. ;)

The linear speed ( v in m/s) of a particle moving in a circular path depends on some or all of the following properties: r is the radius of the circle , w is an angular velocity in s^-1 with which the particle orbits about the circle , and m is the mass of the particle.There are no dimensionless constants in the equation.

What does 'There are no dimensionless constants in the equation.' mean?

(a) Find formula for v
 is it just r/w?

(b) Find a formula for F , the force on a particle moving in a circle , which also depends on some or all of the above properties and also has no dimensionless constants.


Thanks in advanced

ps: If anyone can tell me what topic is this? Homogeneity?

a)v=rw
b) F= mv2/r

can you explain the answers?

yeah :P



angular velocity w= /t

s= r

s=vt

v=s/t

v= r/ t

/ t=w

v=rw



nid404:
a= dv/dt

if theta is small, the dv/v=ds/r

ds=vdt=rd  & dv=vd

dv/v= vdt/r

dv=v2dt/r

dv/dt= v2/r

a=v2/r

F=ma
F=mv2/r
