From the physics perspective, in uniform circular motion, speed and angular velocity are constant. That makes the angular acceleration and tangential acceleration are zero. Non-uniform motion, on the other hand, has varying speed and angular velocity, where angular acceleration is non-zero.
The period T is the time taken to complete one full revolution (2? radians). In uniform circular motion, it relates to angular velocity by? =2? /T and to tangential speed by v=? r=2? r/T .
The principle of circular motion follows Newtonian mechanics. It can be stated that an object will move in a circle only when there is a centripetal force that continuously acts perpendicular to its tangential velocity. That changes the direction but not its speed. The inward acceleration a_c = v squared/r obeys Newton's laws and ensures circular path motion.
Circular motion has the following characteristics.
- Fixed radius with the same and constant distance from the centre
- Constant speed, when the motion is uniform
- A changing velocity vector with continuous direction of change
- Centripetal acceleration that is directed radially inwards, while the force that causes it is the centripetal force that maintains the curved path
