6.1 ROTATION ANGLE AND ANGULAR VELOCITY
Figure 6.1
This Australian Grand Prix Formula 1 race car moves in a circular path as it makes the
turn. Its wheels also spin rapidly—the latter completing many revolutions, the former
only part of one (a circular arc). The same physical principles are involved in each.

EXAMPLE 6.2 HOW DOES THE CENTRIPETAL ACCELERATION OF A CAR
AROUND A CURVE COMPARE WITH THAT DUE TO GRAVITY?
A particle of mass in a
centrifuge is rotating at
constant angular velocity .
It must be accelerated
perpendicular to its velocity
or it would continue in a
straight line
6.3 CENTRIPETAL FORCE
(a) Calculate the centripetal force exerted on This car on level ground is moving
a 900 kg car that negotiates a 500 m radius away and turning to the left. The
curve at 25.0 m/s. centripetal force causing the car to
turn in a circular path is due to
friction between the tires and the
road. A minimum coefficient of
friction is needed, or the car will
move in a larger-radius curve and
leave the roadway.
Figure 6.12
(b) Assuming an unbanked curve, find the minimum static coefficient of friction,
between the tires and the road, static friction being the reason that keeps the car
from slipping
EXAMPLE 6.5 WHAT IS THE IDEAL SPEED TO TAKE A STEEPLY
BANKED TIGHT CURVE?
calculate the speed at which a 100 m radius curve
banked at 65.0° should be driven if the road is
frictionless.
