Situations Involving Kinetic Friction
- A book moving on a horizontal surface with initial and final velocities
- The external force (kinetic friction) acts in the opposite direction of motion.
- Initial kinetic energy = 1/2mv₁²; Final kinetic energy = 1/2mv₂²
- Newton's second law relates forces, mass, and acceleration.
- Friction is the only force acting on the book in the x-direction.
Situations Involving Kinetic Friction- (continued)
- Kinematics equation for motion under constant acceleration: v₂² - v₁² = 2axd
- Multiplying the equation by m: maxd = 1/2m(v₂² - v₁²)
- Force due to friction * distance = change in kinetic energy
- Part of lost kinetic energy warms up book and surface.
- Work-Kinetic theorem: K₁ + ΣW₀ther - fkd = K₂
Friction Force (fk)
- The force resisting motion when two surfaces are in contact.
- fk = μn, where μ is the coefficient of friction and n is the normal force.
- N = mg
Exercise: A Block Pulled on a Rough Surface
- A 6.0-kg block pulled horizontally by 12 N force.
- Coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.15
- Find the final speed after moving 3.0 m.
- Normal force balances gravity.
- Friction force = 0.15 * (6.0 kg) * (9.8 m/s²)
- Final speed: v = 1.8 m/s by applying Newton's second law and kinematics equation
Power
- Work done in a time interval Δt is W; average power expended is P = ΔW/Δt
- Power is the time rate of energy transfer.
- Instantaneous power = lim (ΔW/Δt) as Δt approaches 0, is P = dW/dt
- P = F.v, where v is instantaneous speed
Power (continued)
- SI unit of Power = Joules/sec = Watt (W).
- In British engineering system, 1 hp = 746 W.
- 1 kWh = 3.6 x 10⁶ J
- Electrical energy = power * time.
Conservative Forces
- Work done by a conservative force between two points is independent of the path.
- Work done by conservative forces is the same for any path joining two points.
- Examples include gravitational force and spring force.
Conservative Forces (continued)
- Example of throwing a ball
- Work by gravity is independent of path.
Non-Conservative Forces
- Work done by a non-conservative force depends on the path.
- Example of friction.
Non-Conservative Forces (continued)
- Work done against friction is path-dependent.
Conservation of Mechanical Energy
- Total mechanical energy in an isolated system remains constant when only conservative forces act.
- Total mechanical energy = kinetic energy + potential energy.
- E₁ = E₂, where E₁ and E₂ are the initial and final total mechanical energies.
Change in Mechanical Energy for Non-conservative Forces
- If a non-conservative force (like friction) acts, then ΔK + ΔU = –fkd
Relationship between Conservative Forces and Potential Energy
- Change in potential energy = - work done by the force along x axis
- Conservative force = - rate of change of potential energy with respect to position (x)
- Gravitational potential energy = mgh
Relationship between Conservative Forces and Potential Energy (continued)
- Spring potential energy = 1/2kx²
Motion on a Curved Track
- Child slides down a curved track (no friction)
- Initial KE + Initial PE = Final KE + Final PE
Motion on a Curved Track (continued)
- Initial KE (zero) + Initial PE = Final KE + zero PE
Example Ball in Free Fall
- Ball dropped from height h. Calculate speed at height y (neglecting air resistance).
- Initial KE + Initial PE = Final KE + Final PE (using gravitational potential energy)
- Final velocity = √2g(h-y)

Introduction to Mechanical Properties of Materials
- All objects can be deformed.
- Internal forces resist deformation.
- Stress = external force / area
- Strain = change in dimension / initial dimension
- Stress proportional to strain (within elastic limit)
Young's Modulus: Elasticity in Length
- Stress: force / area
- Strain: change in length / initial length
- Young's Modulus = stress / strain = (F/A) / (ΔL/L₀)
Shear Modulus: Elasticity of Shape
- Shear stress: tangential force / area
- Shear strain: horizontal displacement / height
- Shear Modulus = shear stress / shear strain
Bulk Modulus: Volume Elasticity
- Bulk stress: change in pressure
- Bulk strain: change in volume / initial volume
- Bulk Modulus = bulk stress / bulk strain
