- The body’s velocity is directed tangentially at any instant when an object moves in a circular path at a distance from the centre is known as tangential velocity.
- Angular velocity is related to tangential velocity.
- Angular velocity is ω and tangential velocity is Vt��
- a line that touches a non-linear curve at only a single point is called a tangent. It represents the relationship with an equation between the coordinates “x” and “y” on a graph.
- Tangential formulas are of three types which are as follows –
- Vt=r×dθdt��=�×����
- In order to remember the formula remember the term and its meaning which are as follow-
- Vt�� – Tangential velocity
- r – radius of the circular path
- ω – angular velocity
- t – time
- θ- angular displacement
- Unit for Tangential velocity formula is metre per second.
- This formula will help to calculate the tangential velocity of the moving object in a circular motion.
- Tangential velocity is observed in many cases like the circular motion of a satellite.
