very weak

Can someone please help me in circular motion? I'm blank in this topic and every time I read it, it's as if I'm reading something totally new. Please tell me the basic concepts involved in it and the most important tricks in solving problems from this chapter. [1]

there are exactly 2 things to know

1) draw FBD and acceleration towards the center is v2/r

2) I cant think of a second thing to know when solving questions from this chapter!!! :O

You dont have to do too many things for this chapter!!! which book are u using.. try reading resnick once... (If you havent yet!)

When u are solving problems like what is the minimum velocity etc..

then u should use things like

1) Normal reaction or Tension will not be zero
2) Energy Balance

Basically just these two... Nothing beyond that :)

yups..true........it seems v touf .......but if u do the derivations n stuff step by step..it wont b touf at all.........

circular motion can be well understood if ur basics r very clear ..i mean fbds shld be crystal clear in ur mind...try as many cases a u can frm the various bukks..dont use buks fr getting new questions only..usse it for new conceptual theory...dats d most important thng n den when u thnk u hve covered ol topics accordingly..go ahead with ques n numericals

But i think best way to study physics is without any book or copy..

Just sit and think...

n who wanna write too much :P

to be true... i never used to understand this circular motion n rotation ...

read a good text...

see some solved examples... follow them fully...

and ask your doubts to some really good teacher (not the one who is already confused)

(avoid skul teachers :P 75% of them dun kno nething... am sry.. but still... this is not for those who have good skul teachers but for me like ppl who have never had quality teachers in skul.. now i will stop here or else will be go on cursing my skul as i always do... sry frenz.. koi bura mat manna.. :P)
