[edit] My Edits

In this section, I'll be keeping track of all major physics related edits I've made and will also try to outline the reasons why did the edit.


[edit] In Uniform Circular Motion

[edit] Original:

Image:uni_circular.jpg

The above picture shows a point of mass that is moving with a constant angular speed around a center. When the change in angle is Δθ , the change in displacement is Δs. Using the relationship of trigonometric functions, we find that,
\Delta s=\frac{r \sin \Delta \theta}{\cos (\Delta \theta /2)}

This equation is only valid when Δθ does not equal (2n + 1)π where n is integer.
Similarly, the magnitude of tangential speed is always the same. Let Δv be the change in velocity, v be the initial velocity or instantaneous velocity, and Δt be the change in time,
\Delta v=\frac{v \sin \Delta \theta}{\cos (\Delta \theta/2)}
\frac{\Delta s}{\Delta t}=\frac{r \sin \Delta \theta}{\Delta t \cos(\Delta \theta/2)}

When \Delta t \to 0, \Delta \theta \to 0,


\lim_{{\Delta t} \to 0}\frac{\Delta s}{\Delta t}=\lim_{{\Delta t \to 0}}\frac{r \sin \Delta \theta}{\Delta t \cos(\Delta \theta/2)}


v=\lim_{\Delta t \to 0}\frac{r \Delta \theta}{\Delta t}
v=r \frac{d \theta}{dt}=r \omega (ω is angular speed)
\frac{r}{\Delta s}=\frac{\cos (\Delta \theta/2)}{\sin \Delta \theta}=\frac{v}{\Delta v}
\Delta v=\frac{v \Delta s}{r}
\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}=\frac{v \Delta s}{r \Delta t}
\lim_{\Delta t \to 0}\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}=
\lim_{\Delta t \to 0}\frac{v \Delta s}{r \Delta t}
a=\frac{v^2}{r}


Because v=r\omega \!
We can substitute into a=\frac{v^2}{r}
to get: a=\frac{(r\omega)^2}{r}=r\omega^2

[edit] Magnitude

Assume \omega \! is the angle in radians the body covers in unit time - in other words, the angular velocity of the body. Note that the rotational motion being uniform here we may choose any arbitrary unit for time with no change to the value of \omega \! - so, without loss of generality, we assume that our unit of time is infinitesimally small.

The velocity vector, being always tangential to the circle, also turns by an angle \omega \! in unit time.

The magnitude of instantaneous acceleration, by definition ,is the magnitude of vector change in velocity in an infinitesimally small period of time. The vector representing this is represented in blue in the above diagram. Since our unit of time is infinitesimally small, for all finite velocities, so will be \omega \!. Hence, the magnitude of the acceleration vector is v\omega \!.

Thus, we can conclude that the instantaneous acceleration experienced by a body in uniform circular motion is  v\omega \!.

We may substitute v=r\omega \! in a=v\omega \! to get:
a=\frac{v^2}{r}

[edit] Direction

Since the magnitude of velocity never changes, the direction of the acceleration vector can only be perpendicular to the velocity vector. It can be seen from the diagram that this acceleration vector must point to the center of the circle.

[edit] Reason for Edit:

The original derivation was unnecessarily complex and leaves the reader with no feel for the underlying physics. I believe this derivation is direct and elegant - and the same time lets the reader see directly why the magnitude is v*v/r.

[edit] Image:Sunrise profile dilip.jpg missing description details

Dear uploader: The media file you uploaded as Image:Sunrise profile dilip.jpg is missing a description and/or other details on its image description page. If possible, please add this information. This will help other editors to make better use of the image, and it will be more informative for readers. If you have any questions please see Help:Image page. Thank you.

[edit] Move of Falun Gong and live organ harvesting

I have reverted your "move" because you did it the wrong way, per copy and paste. To move a page, you must use the "move" function at the top of the page, or else the history of the old page won't be carried over. See WP:MOVE. Also, before moving such a page, please make sure that you have consensus for it, and use correct capitalisation: "Reports of organ harvesting from live Falun Gong practitioners in China" instead of "Reports of Organ Harvesting from Live Falun Gong Practitioners in China".

And please use edit summaries with your edits. Thanks, Sandstein (talk) 06:40, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free media (Image:Analysis Tianenmen False Fire GIF.gif)

Thanks for uploading Image:Analysis Tianenmen False Fire GIF.gif. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 12:16, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Archiving

Hi there I've taken the liberty to be bold and archived your talk page from the history. It is bad practice to blank your talk page when you want to start anew, please see Help:Archiving a talk page for more details on how to archive the next time you want to start anew. --antilivedT | C | G 01:04, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Thankyou :)

[edit] Tiannamen Sq incident

Kindly do not revert when consensus is overwhelmingly against you, per WP:DE WP:EW and so forth. Blnguyen (bananabucket) 06:58, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Hello back

You greeted me at my user page,[1] and I want to say hello back. However, I am presently being considered for a one-year ban from wikipedia, and because this could happen any day, I want you to know that I received your greeting and greet you back. You may be interested in the discussion for the Arb committee on the subject of homeopathy that is presently taking place but may finish very shortly at: [2] You may also want to see the Workshop page and the Proposed decision pages too, as well as the Discussion pages for each of these items. I do not mean to "canvass" you. I would send a similar message to anyone who contacted me directly through my user page and who does not seem to be aware of the Arb case at this moment.

[edit] CIPFG

If you get some free time, please have a look here, I would appreciate your comments on the CIPFG and Epoch Times, as they relay to the FG series of articles as a whole. MrPrada (talk) 18:15, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
