... outer edge of a rotating object than it is closer to the axis. • Tangential speed: speed of something moving along a circular path, since the direction of motion is always tangent to the circle. It depends on rotational speed and the distance from the axis of rotation. • Rotational speed: the number ...

Newton`s Second Law of Motion
... Only motion in a straight line is motion that is not changing its direction. Movement in a circle is actually a continuous changing of directions. Therefore, it must be undergoing an acceleration. Ask what force is acting on the yo-yo to change its direction. In an open discussion, explain to stude ...
