| The motion of objects is not limited to [[183_notes:displacement_and_velocity|straight line motion]]. As you read earlier, [[183_notes:momentum_principle|forces can change the momentum of objects]] (including the direction of that momentum). These interactions can produce [[183_notes:localg|projectile motion]], [[183_notes:ucm|circular motion]], [[183_notes:springmotion|oscillations]], or more generalized trajectories. In these notes, you will read about how to model more generalized motion using the [[183_notes:momentum_principle|momentum principle]]. | The motion of objects is not limited to [[183_notes:displacement_and_velocity|straight line motion]].

| The centripetal acceleration tells you how the direction of the object's motion changes, just as the perpendicular component of the net force is responsible for this directional change. | The centripetal acceleration tells you how the direction of the object's motion changes, just as the perpendicular component of the net force is responsible for this directional change. |
