Uniform Circular Motion

If an object is rotating at a steady rate, it has uniform circular motion. A point on the perimeter of the object will travel the distance of the circumference 2πr. Since speed is distance/time, the speed v = 2πr/T where T is the time period of one rotation.The relationship between the time period of rotation and the frequency of rotation is given by T = 1/f or conversely f = 1/T.
