What is a uniform circular movement?
The uniform circular movement is when the object moves at a constant speed around the perfect circle. Perfect examples are very rare in the physical world, but approximation includes a carousel or pendulum moving in a circle parallel to the ground. While planets and months are often cited as examples of uniform circular movement, most of the planetary orbits are elliptical and meets the requirement that speed always remains the same or that the movement must be circular. In physical terminology, the speed at which the object moves through space is known as "speed", while the term "speed" describes both the speed of movement and the direction of movement simultaneously. Thus, for a uniform circular movement, speed changes, while the speed is constant. For example, a car that slows down moves into a rotation and then accelerates from it, moves in a part of the circular path, but because the speed of the car changes, it is not a uniform circular movement.
The uniform circular movement is caused by something called centripetal force. Force is pressure or tensile; The centripetal force is a specific force that causes the object to continue to move in a circle. This prevents the object from going in a straight line by pulling it towards the center of the circle, changing the direction of the object, and therefore its speed. The centripetal force is not pushing or pushing in the direction that moves the object, so the speed remains unchanged. In a uniform circular movement, this centripetal force always has the same size, which is what keeps the object moving in the circle unlike another shape.
To explore the sample is a carnival ride in which the riders are strapped inside the big roller. When the cylinder moves at the set speed, these riders are in a uniform circular movement. The centripetal force that pushes them inside can be felt in the pressure of the cylinder walls against them. If the roller ofLe disappeared, the riders would fly in direct lines. Fortunately, the cylinder pressure forces their movement to be circular.
