Winning on corrected time? You like seconds?

Yes that's true. Now what is the linear velocity of an object moving in
a circle?


Not familar with the term "linear velocity". Do you mean speed, or a particular
component of velocity, or what?

Don't matter who gets there first... it's who gets to walk to the poduim

I have a better question MC, how is it that I can't see your response to me
directly, but only by reading CMs response. Note the sequence below, I never
knew you wrote back to me until he responded to you. Strange.
In another post, I was the OP and asked if anyone is going to the Sailboat
show in Annapolis. I see responses to my question, but I've never been able
to see my own post.
See ya in a few days.
Scout.

Correct. Can you iumagine the amount of energy released if Booby takes
his off?

I was trying to emphasize the difference between angular velocity and
the linear one... The force is that whaich keeps it moving in a
circle... gravity in the case of a 10lb rock on the ground

I didn't say the rock wasn't at the North or South pole.

Still waiting for you to tell me about the energy change the rock is undergoing.

Yes, but it's still applying force to the ground after it stopped moving right?
How is it changing energy?

But it's not accelerating -or is it?
