Title: Motion in a Circle
Url: http://www.phy6.org/stargaze/Scircul.htm
Creator: Stern, David P. (David Peter), 1931-
Publisher: David P. Stern
Description: This web page, authored and curated by David P. Stern, describes motion of an object traveling in a circle. The need for centripetal force to maintain the object's acceleration is derived using algebra and the Pythagoras theorem. A related lesson plan is available. This is part of "From Stargazers to Starships," and extensive web site presenting physics concepts to understand astronomy and space science.
