Tension = a pulling force.
It exists in the Key properties of uniform Verticle circular motion:
connection between 2 objects. circular motion:
At the highest point outside verticle circle:
- An object travelling in
-gravity acts downwards but normal force acts
circular path is at
upwards
constant speed
- The objects velocity -max speed occurs when object in motion is just about
Tension force is
equal on both vector is always to leave the surface.

Connected bodies in tension: path at any point
- The direction of velocity
-include all external forces on the system
is always changing
or part of the system
- Since the velocity is At the higher point inside vertical circle:
-use the total mass of the system of part of changing, the object is
-gravity and normal/tension force add together
it accelerating.
- -minimum speed occurs when cart is about to fall off
-the connection means the acceleration of
the track/string is about to go slack
each mass is the same Acceleration in circular
motion:
Acceleration acts towards the
centre of a circular path
At the lowest point of a vertical circle:
-the gravitational and normal force/tension are
opposite
Connected bodies in two dimensions T is period of one revolution -to maintain circular motion, the normal force/tension
(pulleys: (s) force must be larger in order that the net force still
accelerates the object towards centre of the circle
-the action force comes from the force of Centripetal force in uniform
gravity circular motion:
-we assume pulley is deal - Net force is always
-objects are connected and still accelerate inwards
at
same rate
Banking – changing the

perpendicular to the direction V= u + at
of motion to create a force
towards centre of a curve S= 0.5(u+v)t
as velocity increases, so does S = ut+0.5at2
centripetal force for a vehicle S = Vt – 0.5at2
Connected bodies in contact: moving around a banked
-still consider the external forces on that track V2=u2 + 2as
system or part of the system
trigonometric relationship:
-Still consider the total mass of that system
or part of that system
-still remember the masses are connected
so they must move together with same
velocity.
-if there is no friction, the applied force is Conical pendulum:
shared between the 2 objects in proportion -centripetal force can also
to their relative weights. If one object come from spinning a
weighs twice the other, it will be subject to tethered object like a ball on
twice the force. a string
Newton’s third law, every action has equal and
opposite reaction
