  2. Circular motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_motion

    Solving applications dealing with non-uniform circular motion involves force analysis. With a uniform circular motion, the only force acting upon an object traveling in a circle is the centripetal force. In a non-uniform circular motion, there are additional forces acting on the object due to a non-zero tangential acceleration.

  3. Tangential speed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tangential_speed

    Tangential speed is the speed of an object undergoing circular motion, i.e., moving along a circular path. [1] 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 time means a greater speed, and so linear speed ...

  4. Gyroradius - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyroradius

    It is often useful to give the gyrofrequency a sign with the definition = or express it in units of hertz with =. For electrons, this frequency can be reduced to , = (/).. In cgs-units the gyroradius = | | and the corresponding gyrofrequency = | | include a factor , that is the velocity of light, because the magnetic field is expressed in units [] = / /.

    Since the centrifugal force of the parts of the earth, arising from the earth's diurnal motion, which is to the force of gravity as 1 to 289, raises the waters under the equator to a height exceeding that under the poles by 85472 Paris feet, as above, in Prop. XIX., the force of the sun, which we have now shewed to be to the force of gravity as ...

  6. Rigidity (electromagnetism) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rigidity_(electromagnetism)

    The resulting circular motion of the particle has a radius known as the gyroradius. The rigidity is then defined as: = where is the magnetic field. In this definition, the units of rigidity R are tesla-metres (N·s/C). [1]

  7. Sarrus linkage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarrus_linkage

    The Sarrus linkage, invented in 1853 by Pierre Frédéric Sarrus, [1] is a mechanical linkage to convert a limited circular motion to a linear motion or vice versa [2] without reference guideways. It is a spatial six-bar linkage (6R) with two groups of three parallel adjacent joint-axes.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peaucellier–Lipkin_linkage

    Animation for Peaucellier–Lipkin linkage: Dimensions: Cyan Links = a Green Links = b Yellow Links = c. The Peaucellier–Lipkin linkage (or Peaucellier–Lipkin cell, or Peaucellier–Lipkin inversor), invented in 1864, was the first true planar straight line mechanism – the first planar linkage capable of transforming rotary motion into perfect straight-line motion, and vice versa.
