12.4 GENERAL CURVILINEAR MOTION
Curvilinear
Curved path s
Curvilinear motion can cause changes in both in magnitude and direction of position, velocity, and
acceleration

Displacement
Distance along the curve
Velocity
Speed is the magnitude of v
v is tangent to the path

12.10 RELATIVE-MOTION OF TWO PARTICLES USING TRANSLATING AXES
Position
Absolute position of each particle, r
A
and r
B
, is measured
from the common fixed origin O
Particle B moves with particle A with each having their own axis
The axes of B and A are permitted to translate (move) relative
to the fixed axis of O
The position of B is measured relative to A
is denoted by the relative-position vector
r
B/A
