Circular Velocity Calculator
Put the values of the radius and time into the circular velocity calculator to find the value of the velocity of an object moving in a circular motion.
This online circular velocity calculator can calculate the value of the velocity of an object moving in an orbit of a circle, given that the values of time and radius of the orbit are known.
This calculator can also be used to calculate
- Radius
- Time
What is circular velocity?
Definition of circular velocity is:
“The velocity attained by an object while moving along the circumference of a circle.”
It is represented by v and its SI unit is ms-1.
Circular velocity formula
The equation for the calculation of the circular velocity is:
v = 2πr/t
Where r is radius and t is time to complete one circle.
How to calculate circular velocity?
Example:
What is the circular velocity of a car completing a rotation about a circle of radius 7 meters in 16 seconds?
Solution:
Step 1: Identify the values.
r = 7 m
t = 16 seconds
Step 2: Use the values in the formula.
v = 2πr/t
v = 2π (7)/16
v = 2.75 ms-1
