Key Topics to Revise

1

Uniform Circular Motion

  • Uniform circular motion is motion with constant speed along a circular path
  • Velocity changes continuously due to change in direction, even though speed remains constant
  • Centripetal force is required to maintain circular motion, always directed toward the center
2

Universal Law of Gravitation

  • Every object in the universe attracts every other object with a gravitational force
  • Force is directly proportional to product of masses and inversely proportional to square of distance
  • Newton derived this law by comparing moon's motion with apple's fall
3

Free Fall and Acceleration due to Gravity

  • Free fall occurs when only gravitational force acts on an object
  • All objects fall with same acceleration in absence of air resistance
  • Acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s² (approximately 10 m/s²)
4

Weight and Weightlessness

  • Weight is the force of gravitational attraction on an object by Earth
  • Weight = mg, measured in Newtons (N)
  • Weight varies with location due to changes in g
