If a body starts from a point with position vector r0 , then at time t, the position
of the body is given by: r = r0 + tv

CIRCULAR MOTION
When a particle moves in a horizontal circle, the angular speed is normally constant,
and is denoted by . In this case the only acceleration is towards the centre of the
circle and has magnitude :
