1 Circular Motion

2

3 Satellites NASA tracking
What would happen if the gravitational force suddenly disappeared?

4 Large Hadron Collider

5 … the superconducting magnets
7000 of them Cooled to just above absolute zero Produce magnetic fields of around 8 tesla

6 Mass Spectrometer

7 Centrifugal Separator

8 Centripetal Acceleration & Force
Objects in circular motion are accelerating towards the centre of the circle. How is this possible if they are going at constant speed? If the objects are being accelerated, then they are being acted upon by an unbalanced force (the Centripetal Force) which acts towards the centre of the circle. How would this force vary with the 1) mass of the object, 2) radius of the circle, 3) speed?

9 What provides the centripetal force?

10 Car cornering?

11 Fairground ride?

12 International Space Station

13 London Eye

14 Ice skater
