REFERENCE FRAME An axis is a number line. Origin is the point where zeros of the axes coincide. Position of an object at a time is described by drawing one axis for motion along a straighline, two intersecting axes for motion in a plane and three perppendicular axes for motion in space. More than one axis is a ‘system of axes’. At any instant of time, the position of a particle is described by noting co-ordinates on axes. To describe motion, we need an axis system (frame) that is fixed on some body, called reference body. This axis system is called ‘reference frame’. If we sit in an aeroplane and look at a car moving on road, the aeroplane in the reference body and the car is the object in motion. To locate the car, we set up xyz-axes in the aeroplane. This frame is here the reference frame. A reference frame is also attached with a clock to measure time. Example : A car is moving on road. Mile stones give us the positions of the car. We can describe it by choosing a point as origin and laying down number line along the road. (Observer is on the road.) This number line is called an axis and is a reference frame. mile stones

PHYSICS : SHEET LAWS OF MOTION LAWS OF MOTION CONCEPT OF FORCE Force is familiar word in science. From your own experience, you know that forces can produce changes in motion. If a force is applied to a stationary body, the body comes in motion. It can speed up and slow down a moving body or change the direction of its motion. In nut shell, the force is cause of change in velocity of the body. In other words, force is the cause of acceleration of the body. Force is a vector quantity and if more than one forces act on a particle, we can find the resultant force using the laws of vector addition. When a heavy block is suspended by a rope, the rope exerts a force on the block to hold it and the block exerts a force on the rope to make it tight and stretched. This is according to Newton’s third law of motion which may be stated as followed : “If a body A exerts a force F on another body B, then B exerts a force – F on A, the two forces acting along the same line.” Some Particular Forces (i) Gravitational force : The force of attraction between bodies by virtue of their masses is known as gravitational force. Let two blocks of mass m1 and m2 are separated by a distance ‘r’. The force on block 1 by block 2 is F12 acting towards m2 along line joining m1 and m2. Similarly, the force on block 2 by block 1 is F21 acting towards m1 along line joining m2 and m1 (as shown in figure) From the concept of Newton’s third law, F12 F21 m1 m2 F12 F21 r In the sense of magnitude, Gm1m 2 F12 F21 F r2 Here, G = gravitational constant = 6.7 × 10–11 Nm2/kg2. (ii) Weight of body (mg) : It is defined as the force by which earth attracts a body m towards its centre. If body is situated either on the surface of earth or near the surface of earth, then gravitational acceleration is nearly constant and is equal to mg g = 9.8 m/s2. The force of gravity (weight) on a block of mass m is w = mg acting centre of earth (shown in figure). Caution : The weight of a body is not the mass of the body. Weight is the magnitude of force and is related to the mass by w = mg. (iii) The normal reaction force : When a body presses against a surface, the surface (even a seemingly rigid surface) deforms and pushes on the body with a normal reaction force N that is perpendiuclar to the surface. For a simple introduction to the normal reaction force, consider a situation in which you put a book on your head and continue your stationary position. In this case, the pain you feel is due to the force that the book exerts on your head. In the language of physics, the book exerts a force on your head normal to the surface of contact in downward direction. According to Newton’s third law of motion, the head exerts a force of same magnitude on the book normal to the surface of contact in upward direction. These forces are known as normal reaction forces. Normal reaction forces in difference situations are shown below : N N

(iv) Friction : If we slide or attempt to slide over a surface, the moton is resisted by a bonding between the body and the surface. The resistance Direction of attempted slide is considered to be single force f , called the frictional force or simply f friction. This force is directed along the surface, opposite the direction of the intended motion. Some times to simplify a situation, friction is assumed to be negligible (the surface is frictionless). (v) Tension : When a string or cord is attached to a body and pulled taut, the cord pulls on the body with a force T directed away from the body and T T along the cord Fig. The force is often called a tension force because the cord Force is said to be in a state of tension (or to be under tension), which means that it is being pulled taut. The tension in the cord is the magnitude T of the force on the body.

If the cord (string) is massless, the tension in cord everywhere remains the same. The cord then exists only as a connection between two bodies. If the cord (string) is massive, the tension in it varies point to point.

(vi) Spring force : Coiled metallic wire is known as spring. The distance between two successive collisions in a spring remains the same. If a spring is placed on L a smooth surface, the length between ends of spring is known as natural length (shown in figure). As you may have discovered itself, springs resist attempts to change their length. If the length of spring is greater than its natural length, the spring is in the condition of elongation (shown in figure ahead). If the length of spring is lesser than its natural length, the spring is in the condition of compression (shown in figure ahead). In fact, the more you alter a spring’s length, the harder it resists. From this point of view, spring force increases, when elongation or compression increases. For small elongation or compression of spring, spring force is proportional to its elongation or compression. i.e., Fx F = kx where ‘k’ is proportionality constant known as spring constant or stiffness constant. Its unit is N/m. The direction of spring force is always towards the natural length of spring.

FREE BODY DIAGRAM A free body diagram is helpful in solving problems like several bodies connected by string, springs, surfaces of contact, with the Newton’s second law. It is a striped-down diagram in which one body is considered. That body is represented by a sketch or simply a dot. The external forces on the body are drawn, and a co-ordinate system is superimposed, oriented so as to simplify the solution. While sketching a free body diagram, the following points should be kept in mind. 1. Normal reaction (N) always acts normal to the surface on which body is kept [Fig.]. N Vertical surface

NOTE : Always remember that while drawing a FBD, tension in each branch must form an action-reaction pair. 3. 4. 5.
If the pulley is light and frictionless and a string passes over it without any links, then tension on either side of the string is the same. While drawing FBD of a body, always take into account the forces which are acting on the body not those which the body exerts on others. The friction is a tangential force acting tangentially to the surfaces in contact.

NEWTON’S LAWS OF MOTION First Law “If no force acts on a body, then the body’s velocity cannot change; that is the body cannot accelerate.” In other words, if the body is at rest it stays at rest and if it is moving, it will continue to move with the same velocity (same magnitude and same direction) unless it experiences a net external force. In simpler terms, we can say that the net force on Q body is zero, its acceleration is zero. That is, where F = 0, then a = 0. From the first law. We conclude that an isolated body (a body that does not interact with its environment) is either at rest or moving with constant velocity. Second Law The change of motion is proportional to the magnitude of force applied and is made in the direction of the straight line in which that force is applied. According to this law, the net force on a body is equal to the product of the body’s mass and the acceleration of the body. In equation form Fnet Fnet m a or a m Third Law To every action there is always an equal and opposite reaction or the mutual actions of two bodies upon each other are always directed to contrary parts. According to this law, when two bodies interact, the forces on the bodies from each other are always equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. 2 F12 = – F21 This is, F12 F21 This law, which is illustrated in fig., is equivalent to stating that forces always F12 F21 occurs in pairs, or that a single isolated force cannot exist. 1
Problems Solving Steps : Normally problem based on Newton’s law can be solved in following steps : 1. Concentrate your mind on the system (body) which is considered by you. The considered body may be a single particle, a block or a combination of two or more blocks, two blocks connected by a string. etc.

Show all forces acting on the system but it is restricted that the forces that the system exerts onother should not be shown here. Thus, we draw, a free body diagram of the system and indicate the magnitude and directions of all the forces as discussed in step 2. Choose a co-ordinate system including mutually perpendicular ‘x’ and ‘y’ axes in the plane of the forces. Write the components of all the forcs acting along the acceleration (assumed as x-axis) and perpendicular to acceleration (assumed as y-axis). That is Fx = ma ...(i) and for y-axis, Fy = 0 ...(ii) NOTE : Above Eqs (i) and (ii) hold in case of coplanar forces. If the forces are collinear, the Eq. (ii) is not needed.

Comprehension Type — [18 to 20] A paticle of mass ‘m’ is constrained to move on x-axis. A force ‘F’ acts on the particle. ‘F’ always points toward the position labeled ‘E’. For example, A +ve when the particle is to the left of E’, ‘F’ points to the right. The magnitude of x m E ‘F’ is a constant ‘F’ except at point ‘E’ where it is zero. The system is horizontal. ‘F’ is the net force acting on the particle. The particle is displaced a distance ‘A’ towards left from the equilibrium position ‘E’ and released from rest at t = 0.

IMPORTANT FEATURES 1. Newton’s first law is not true in all reference frames, but we can always find reference frames in which it is true. such frames are called inertial reference frames, or simply inertial frames. Thus, an inertial reference frame is one in which Newton’s laws hold. 2. Newton’s laws are not valid in the non-inertial frames. They are to be modified by introducing the concept of pseudo force. 3. The pseudo force is always directed in a direction opposite to the direction of the acceleration of the noninertial frame. 4. While drawing free body diagrams (FBD) in which pseudo force is involved, we must first see the acceleration of the non-inertial frame and then in the FBD, plot the pseudo force with a value ma in a direction opposite to the acceleration of non-inertial frame. 5. If a pulley is massless, net force on it is zero even if it is accelerated. For example, in the following figure : T1 T1 T1 P T2 T2

T1 = 2T2 whether the pulley is accelerated or not provided the pulley is massless. This because Fnet mass acceleration and Fnet will be zero if pulley is massless. FRICTION When a force f tends to slide a body along a surface, a frictional force from the surface acts on the body. The frictional force is parallel to the surface and directed so as to oppose the sliding. It is due to bonding between the body and the surface. If the body does not slide the frictional force is a Static Frictional Force f s . If there is sliding the frictional force is kinetic frictional force f k . Three Properties of Friction 1. If the body does not move, then the static frictional force f s and the component of F that is parallel to the surface are equal in magnitude, and f s is directed opposite that component. If that parallel component increases,

magnitude fs also increases. If the applied parallel component exceeds a certain (maximum) value, the body slides on the surface. The magnitude of f s has a maximum value called limiting value fs,max or fL that is given by fL = µsN where µs is the coefficient of static friction and N is the magnitude of the normal force. If the body begins to slide on the surface, the magnitude of the frictional force rapidly decreases to a constant value fk given by fk = µkN where µk is coefficient of kinetic friction. The value of µs is greater or equal to µk. NOTE : In problems if µs and µk are separately not given. But only µ is given. Then µ = µs = µk
Example 24. A baseball player with mass m = 79 kg, sliding into second base, is retarded by a frictional force of magnitude 470 N. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction µk between the player and the ground ? Sol. The free body diagram from the player is shown in the right. The force of friction is related to the normal force N by f = µkN. The vertical component of acceleration is zero, so the vertical component of Newton’s second law is f N – mg = 0 N = mg f 470 mg µk 0.61 Thus, N (79) (9.8) Angle of Friction As shown in fig, a body A is in contact with surface B.

IMPORTANT FEATURES 1. The direction of friction force on each of the blocks in Fig.(a) is such as it either stops the relative motion or attempts to do so.

f1 = force of friction between A and B f2 = force of friction between B and ground Force of friction f = 0, if no driving force is applied. f fL (= µsN) If driving force is applied but no relative motion is there. and f = µkN if relative motion is there. A common mistake which the students do in hurry is that they always write fL = µmg (in case of horizontal ground) or fL = µmg cos (in inclined surface). The actual formula is fL = µN. Here, N is equal to mg or mg cos upto when no force is acting at some angle ( 0º) with the plane. F F N = mg fL = µmg

LAWS OF MOTION SOLUTION OF THINKING PROBLEMS
1. A man runs for a certain distance after alighting from a moving train to maintain the same velocity of all parts of his body relative to the train so that he may not fall forward due to the inertia of rest of the lower part of his body and inertia of motion of the upper of his body. 2. Because of greater distance and hence greater time over which him motion is stopped, he experiences less force : áFñ = change in momentum = D p / D t. For a given D p, D t µ 1/áFñ 3. An athlete runs over a certain distance before taking a long jump to gain inertia of motion so that he may take a longer jump. 4. Due to inertia of rest ripe mangoes get detached from their weak stem. 5. Suppose 2l is the length of the string and 2a is the distance between the points on the upper edge of the frame where the ends of the string are attached. Then the inclination of each part of the string to the - 1 a . If T is the tension of the string, then for the equilibrium of the picture, horizontal is cos l W = 2T sin q = 2T 1- a 2 / l 2
Thus it is seen that a shorter length means a greater tension. So the picture is likely to fall if the length is too short. 6. True 10.
7. True
8. False
9. True
False, momentum is conserved only when the external force on the system is zero.
11.(a) The bob will fall vertically downward as the velocity of the bob is zero. 12.
The motion of a particle between two parallel walls; 2s; 8 kg ms–1.
13.The right block will move first. To justify the answer let us suppose that F is the force applied at the end of the rod. Let F1 be the magnitude of the action and reaction between the rod and the light block and F2 that of the rod and and left block. Considering translational equilibrium of the rod. F1 – F2 = F Therefore, F1 > F2 Therefore, the right block will tend to move first. 14. No, the speed of the cart will not depend on the point of impact. The momentum of the revolving cylinder is zero because one half has as much negative linear momentum as the other half has positive linear momentum. For this reason the bullet will impart to the ‘car + cylinder’ system the same momentum as it would be a cylinder rigidly fixed to the cart. 15.Tru. In a car the driving force and the frictional force are in the same direction. This is not in violation of the law of friction. The application of brakes means the application of force on the axle in the opposite direction. Consequently the frictional force is also reversed.

Aeroplanes always fly at low altitudes. According to Newton’s third law of motion. The slope of momentum versus time curve give us the acceleration. Acceleration is given by the rate of change of momentum. The apparent weight of a body in an elevator moving with some downward acceleration is less than the actual weight of body. The part of the weight is spent in producing downward acceleration, when body is in elevator. When the lift moves with uniform velocity the man in the lift will feel weightlessness. In downward accelerated motion of lift, apparent weight of a body decreases. A player lowers his hands while catching a cricket ball and suffers less reaction force. The time of catch increases when cricketer lowers its hand while catching a ball. A reference frame attached to earth is an inertial frame of reference. The reference frame which has zero acceleration is called a non inertial frame of reference. A table cloth can be pulled from a table without dislodging the dishes. To every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. A body subjected to three concurrent forces cannot be in equilibrium. If large number of concurrent forces acting on the same point, then the point will be in equilibrium, if sum of all the forces is equal to zero. Impulse and momentum have different dimensions. From Newton’s second law of motion, impulse is equal to change in momentum. On a rainy day, it is difficult to drive a car or bus at high speed. The value of coefficient of friction is lowered due to wetting of the surface. When a bicycle is in motion, the force of friction exerted by the ground on the two wheels is always in forward direction. The frictional force acts only when the bodies are in contact. Pulling a lawn roller is easier than pushing it. Pushing increases the apparent weight and hence the force of friction. Two bodies of masses M and m (M > m) are allowed to fall from the same height if the air resistance for each be the same then both the bodies will reach the earth simultaneously. For same air resistance, acceleration of both the bodies will be same. The acceleration of a body down a rough inclined plane is greater than the acceleration due to gravity. The body is able to slide on a inclined plane only when its acceleration is greater than acceleration due to gravity. A cloth covers a table. Some dishes are kept on it. The cloth can be pulled out without dislodging the dishes from the table. For every there is an equal and opposite reaction.

PASSAGE # 2 A safety engineering firm is producing a film for high school driver education classes. The firm uses skilled test drivers driving both small cars and larger vans. The vans weigh three times as much as the cars and have larger tires with twice the tread width. In a demonstration that tests reaction times and skid-to-stop distances and shows them on the film, three guns that fire a yellow paint onto the road are mounted on the bumpers and fired electrically. When the driver hears the report of the first gun, he locks the breaks, and the touch of his foot on the brake pedal fires a second yellow pellet. The third pellet is fired when the car stops. The safety engineers also design several remote controlled cars and vans in order to film crash results. 6.
Drivers of a car and a van brake hard and skid to a stop from 50 mph. The skid marks are measured to be the same length for both. Why are the stopping distances the same length? (A) The mechanical work done by friction to stop both is the same (B) The frictional force between tires and road is three times greater for the heavier van so it slides the same distance as the car (C) The frictional force for the car and van are the same (D) The wider tires on the van require less friction force than the narrow tires on the car.
7.
Two drivers in identical cars skid to a stop from speeds of 20 mph and 40 mph. How do the lengths of the skid marks compare? (A) They are the same length (B) The 40 mph mark is twice as long (C) The 40 mph mark is four times as long (D) The 40 mph mark is eight times as long.
8.
A remote controlled car and van are crashed head on at the same speed. Why does the car suffer more damage in the collision? (A) The car and van had the same momentum (B) The forces during collision are equal and opposite, so the smaller and weaker car suffers more damage. (C) The van exerts a larger force on the car (D) The mechanical work down in stopping the car is greater.
9.
The van going at a speed of 15 mph collides head on with a car going at a speed of 45 mph. Because the van weighs three times as much, their vector momenta are equal and opposite. However, examination shows that the car suffers more damage than the van. Why? (A) The massive van exerts a larger force on the car. (B) The lighter car exerts a smaller force on the van (C) the forces exerted during the collision are equal and opposite, so the weaker car suffers more damage. (D) The mechanical work required to stop the van is smaller.
10. A driver in a van skids to a stop from 20 mph and a driver in a car skids to a stop from 60 mph. How do the length of the skid marks compare? (A) The van skids three times further than the car, because it is three times heavier. (B) The car skids three times further because it is lighter an si going three times faster. (C) The car will skid nine times as fast as the van (D) They skid the same length because the speed ratio is 1:3, whereas the weight ratio is 3:1. 11. For the reaction time test, one driver is tested at 20 mph and 60 mph. It is noted that the distance between the first two paint marks is three times farther for the 60 mph test than the 20 mph test. How do his reaction times compare at 20 mph and 60 mph? (A) His reaction time at 60 mph is three times faster. (B) His reaction times remain the same (C) His reaction time at 20 mph is three times faster. (D) His reaction time at 20 mph is one-third as long as at 60 mph.
