Circular Motion
Circular Motion
When a net force acts on a body its velocity changes and acquires
acceleration
In the case of circular motion the direction of acting force is
perpendicular to the direction of motion
So the velocity doesn’t change but the direction of
motion changes
As you can see for an object to undergo a uniform
circular motion (move in a
Circular path with a constant speed), it must be affected continuously by a
constant net force that is perpendicular to its direction of motion towards
.the circle's center which is called the Centripetal force
Activity: The reaction of Magnesium with both Dil HCl and Conc HCl
Mg + 2HCl dil Mg Cl
→ 2 + H 2↑
iron + Hydrochloric acid magnesium chloride
The speed (rate) of this reaction is measured by the amount of the evolved
gas through a certain period of time
Observation: The evolved bubbles (the amount of the gas formed) in case
of using conc. hydrochloric acid is more than that in case of dil HCl acid.
Conclusion: The speed of chemical reaction increases by increasing the
concentration of the reactants
4-The temperature of the reaction
On increasing the temperature of the reactants, the speed of the reactants
molecules increases, so the number of probable collision between them
increases so the speed of the chemical reaction increases
4-Catalysts
To change the speed of the reactions, it is necessary to add certain chemical
substances to them that don't affect the nature of the products, these
chemical substances are known as catalysts.

Enzymes
* The human body contains thousands types of chemical substances which
act as Catalyst known as Enzymes.
Enzymes: They are chemical substances produced by the body
of living organism act as catalyst that increase the speed of
biological reactions
The biological reactions occur in the presence of enzymes are more rapid
than that with the enzymes-thousands or even millions times
• Each enzyme has a specific function, a molecule of one enzyme can do its
function million times per minute
• Without enzymes, man can never breathe, move or even digest food
Activity: The effect of enzymes on the speed of the chemical
reaction
1. Put an amount of hydrogen peroxide in a glass beaker, then add the piece
of sweet potato to it
2. Compare between the number of the evolved bubbles before and after
adding a piece of sweet potato.
