The circular velocity formula is expressed as
Where,
r denotes the radius of the circular orbit
T is the time period
In terms of angular velocity ω, the circular velocity is described
Where,
ω denotes the angular velocity
r is the radius of the circular path
Solved Examples
Example 1
Determine the circular velocity of a pebble tied to a thread of 0.75 m when swirled is rotating with the angular velocity of 45 radians /s
Solution
Given parameters are,
Angular velocity ω = 45 rad/s
radius = 0.75 m
The circular velocity formula is given by
