Abstract

Centripetal acceleration, linear and angular speeds are three mathematical quantities that are of primary interest to analyze the uniform motion of objects in circles. The formula of centripetal acceleration is usually derived from the difference ΔV of two tangential velocity vectors. The formulas for the relation between linear and angular speeds are mostly supplied without derivation. In this paper, a novel approach to the derivation of fundamental equations of circular motion using a simple sketch is presented.
