Vector Fields
Study Guide Overview
This study guide covers circular motion and vector fields, focusing on Uniform Circular Motion (UCM). Key concepts include defining and visualizing vector fields, understanding forces in UCM (centripetal force, tension, friction, gravity, normal force), and differentiating between centripetal and centrifugal forces. It also covers the centripetal force equation and briefly touches on gravitational vector fields. Practice questions and exam tips are included.
