Momentum and Center of Mass

Linear Momentum is defined as
p=mv

where v is the velocity of the particle

-Momentum is a velocity vector
-Momentum of system of particles is the vector sum of individaul momentum of the particle
ptotal=∑viMi



Center Of Mass: Rcm=∑riMi/∑Mi

In co -ordinates system
xcm=∑xiMi/∑Mi

ycm=∑yiMi/∑Mi
zcm=∑ziMi/∑Mi

Velocity of CM=∑viMi/∑Mi

Acceleration of CM=∑Fext/∑Mi


Law Of conservation of Momentum:
if ∑Fext=0

then ∑viMi=constant

Work And Energy

Work:- Work done by the force is defined as dot product of force and displacement vector
- For constant Force
W=F.s

where F is the force vector and s is displacement Vector
-For variable Force

dW=F.ds

or W=∫F.ds

-It is a scalar quantity

Conservative And Non Conservative Forces
-If the workdone by the force in a closed path is zero,Then it is called conservative Force
-If the workdone by the force in a closed path is not zero,Then it is called non conservative Force
-Conservative Forces are gravtitional ,electrical force
-Non Conservative Forces are friction

Kinetic Energy:-It is the energy possesed by the body in motion
-it is defined as
K.E=(1/2)mv2
- Networkdone by the external force is equal to the change in the kinetic energy of the system
W=Kf-Ki


Potential Energy:
-It is the kind of energy possesed due to configuration of the system
-It is due to conservative force
-it is defined as

dU=-F.dr
Uf-Ui=-∫F.dr
Where F is the conservative force

F=-(∂U/∂x)i-(∂U/∂y)j-(∂U/∂z)k

For gravtitional Force
Change in Potential Energy =mgh

where h is the height between the two points


Mechanical Energy is defined as
=K.E+P.E

Law Of conservation of Energy

In absence of external forces,intenal forces being conservative ,total energy of the system remains constant.
K.E1+P.E1=K.E2+P.E2

Uniform Circular Motion,Friction And Frame Of refrence

Uniform Circular Motion
-A body moving with constant speed on the circle
-Acceleration is Directed towards centre
a=v2/r

Where v is the speed and r is the radius of the circle

-Centrepetal force is required to move the body in the circle
F=mv2/r




Friction:

Frictional force acts between the bodies whenever there is a relative motion between them.
When bodies do the slip ,frictional force is called static frictional force and when the bodies does not slip ,it is called kinetic frictional force.

Kinetic Frictional force:-When bodies slip over each other

f=μkN


Where N is the normal contact force between the surface
And μk is the coefficent of kinetic Friction

Direction of frictional force is such that relative slipping is opposed by the friction

Static Frictional force:

-Frictional force can also act even if there is no relative motion.Such force is called static Frictional force
-Maximum Statix friction that a body can exert on other body in contact with it is called limiting Friction.
fmaxsN

Where
N is the normal contact force between the surface
And μs is the coefficent of static Friction
fmax is the maximum possible force of static Friction


Some Imp points
1. μs > μk
2 Angle of friction tanλ=μs


Frame Of refrence:

Inertial Frame Of refrence:

-Inertial frame of refrences are objects which are at rest or moving at constant Velocity
-Exmaple:A person standing in a train moving at constant velocity
-Newtons law are valid


Non Inertial Frame Of refrence:-Inertial frame of refrences are objects which are accelerated
-Exmaple: A person standing in a train moving with increasing speed.
-Newtons law are not valid.

To apply newtons law ,pseudo force has to be introduced in the equation whose value will be
F=-ma

where a is the accelration of the non inertial frame of refrence
