Formula Sheet — Motion in a Plane

Important formulas and equations from Motion in a Plane for CUSAT CAT Physics.

Formulas — Motion in a Plane

Scalars and Vectors

|A⃗| = √(Ax² + Ay²)
tan θ = Ay/Ax

Motion in a Plane

v⃗ = dr⃗/dt
a⃗ = dv⃗/dt
v⃗ = v₀⃗ + a⃗t
r⃗ = r₀⃗ + v₀⃗t + ½a⃗t²

Projectile Motion

x = u cos θ × t
y = u sin θ × t - ½gt²
T = 2u sin θ/g
H = u² sin² θ/(2g)
R = u² sin 2θ/g

Uniform Circular Motion

ω = θ/t = 2π/T = 2πf
v = rω = 2πr/T
ac = v²/r = rω² = vω
Fc = mv²/r = mrω² = mvω
