What is Non-uniform circular motion[edit]

When a fan is switched ON or OFF, the speed of a particals of a fan go on increasing or decreasing for some time, however their directions are tangential to their circular trajectories. During this time, it is non-uniform circular motion. Rohan Gajbhiye (talk) 02:04, 15 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete the Physics Textbook link[edit]

It seems that this thing was a dream. There is a | wikiversity.org School:Physics_and_Astronomy. Maybe that should be linked instead? Or not, but the dead link does no one good. Johnjbarton (talk) 00:58, 12 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
