  2. Tangential speed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tangential_speed

    Tangential speed and rotational speed are related: the greater the "RPMs", the larger the speed in metres per second. Tangential speed is directly proportional to rotational speed at any fixed distance from the axis of rotation. [1] However, tangential speed, unlike rotational speed, depends on radial distance (the distance from the axis). For ...

  3. Speeds and feeds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speeds_and_feeds

    Schematically, speed at the workpiece surface can be thought of as the tangential speed at the tool-cutter interface, that is, how fast the material moves past the cutting edge of the tool, although "which surface to focus on" is a topic with several valid answers. In drilling and milling, the outside diameter of the tool is the widely agreed ...

  4. Circular motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_motion

    The net acceleration may be resolved into two components: tangential acceleration and centripetal acceleration. Unlike tangential acceleration, centripetal acceleration is present in both uniform and non-uniform circular motion. This diagram shows the normal force (n) pointing in other directions rather than opposite to the weight force.

  5. File:Earth rotation tangential speed.svg - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Earth_rotation...

    English: Plot of latitude vs Earth rotation tangential speed in m/s, km/h, mph and Mach number (assuming 300 m/s speed of sound). The dashed (blue) line shows that the tangential speed of Cape Canaveral is around 408 m/s. The dot-dash (green) line denotes typical airliner cruise speeds.

  6. Rotational frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotational_frequency

    Rotational frequency is not to be confused with tangential speed, despite some relation between the two concepts. Imagine a merry-go-round with a constant rate of rotation. No matter how close to or far from the axis of rotation you stand, your rotational frequency will remain constant. However, your tangential speed does not remain constant.

  7. Speed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed

    Angular speed and tangential speed on a disc Tangential speed is the speed of an object undergoing circular motion, i.e., moving along a circular path. [6] A point on the outside edge of a merry-go-round or turntable travels a greater distance in one complete rotation than a point nearer the center. Travelling a greater distance in the same ...

  8. Yaw (rotation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yaw_(rotation)

    The yaw rate is directly related to the lateral acceleration of the vehicle turning at constant speed around a constant radius, by the relationship tangential speed*yaw velocity = lateral acceleration = tangential speed^2/radius of turn, in appropriate units. The sign convention can be established by rigorous attention to coordinate systems.

  9. Coriolis force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coriolis_force

    Any object that moves westward at a speed above 930 m/s (2,100 mph) experiences an upward force instead. In the figure, the Eötvös effect is illustrated for a 10-kilogram (22 lb) object on the train at different speeds. The parabolic shape is because the centripetal force is proportional to the square of the tangential speed. On the inertial ...
