Hello,
We know that to calculate the orbital velocity we use the relation :
Vo=2* pi* r /time of one cycle
but if we want to calculate the orbital velocity when a body moves from the point a to the point b on a circular path we use the relation :
Vo = The line segment ab / time taken (as it is written I am my book)
so I'm confused with this.
it should be: the arc ab /time taken
so Could u help?
Thanks
