Dynamics Differentiation

How do I differentiate x^2 + y^2 = constant^2 with respect to time in order to find the velocities?

You can't; at least, you can't and expect to get anything substantial.  Unless "x" or "y" don't mean classical "x" and "y" concepts, there is no time factored into that equation.

What if the constant is a frequency?

WHAT NOW?!, >>2, ....WHAT DO WE DO NOW!?...

It doesn't matter.  A constant always differentiates to 0 and frequency IS a velocity in a manner of speaking (events per time interval) besides that.

Are X and Y functions of t perhaps?

Don't change these.
