Period: the time required for one complete cycle of a repeated event <= measured in units of seconds, variable T
Frequency: the number of complete cycles of a repeated event PER second <=measured in units of Hertz (Hz), variable f
A cathead in a pool bobs up and down 17 times in 68 seconds, find its period and frequency.
Types of Circular Motion
Uniform circular motion: motion in a circle at a constant speedWhenever an object undergoes circular motion there must be a net force directed toward the centre of the circle. Fnet in circular motion is called Fc (centripetal force).
Notice that the velocity v is tangent to the circle at all pointsNotice that ac and Fc are directed toward the center (radially).Notice the angle between v and Fc must be 90o.

Conic Circles: these are horizontal circles caused when an object is swung in a CONE on a string
A cat of mass 5.0 kg is swung in a circle off a rope. If the length of rope is 0.50 m and radius of circular motion is 0.30 m find the Force of tension, Fc, ac, and tangential velocity of the cat.
The relationship between period (T) and velocity (v):

velocity of the cat.
Circular motion and free body diagrams:
Horizontal circles on either a rotating disk or object travelling through a curve.
A nickel of mass 1.0 g is placed on a record of radius 12 cm, if the record rotates at 30 rpm (revolutions per minute) what minimum coefficient of friction is necessary to prevent the coin from sliding off?
A lamborghini of mass 1000 kg travels through a corner of radius 50 m, at what maximum speed can it travel if the coefficient of friction is 0.85 between the tires and road?

Disks/ objects travelling around curves: typical example car on a cornerForce of friction which allows for the turning of corners
The safe posted speed for the hairpin at Heartland Ranch is 20 km/hDetermine the approximate coefficient of friction for winter tires on snowy roads, if the radius is 50 m.
Vertical Circles:When you choose NOT to draw a FBD you choose to get it wrong.
Object swung on ropes/cables:
The net force must be toward the center

Ferris Wheel Type rides:
A cat of mass 3.0 kg travels at constant speed of
4.0 m/s around a ferris wheel of Radius 6.0 m determine the normal Force at the top and bottom of the ride.
A cat of mass 4.0 kg is swung in a vertical circle at 5.0 m/s at radius 1.5 m. Determine the force of tension in the top and bottom of the swing.
