Your task will be to derive the equations describing the velocity and acceleration in a polar coordinate system and a rotating polar vector basis for an object in general 2D motion starting from a general position vector. Then use these expressions to simplify to the case of non-uniform circular motion, and finally uniform circular motion. Here's the time-dependent position vector in a Cartesian coordinate system with a Cartesian vector basis: ⃗r(t)=x (t) ̂ i+y(t) ̂ j where x(t) and y(t)...
