    Study Notes

    Work and Energy

    • Work is defined as the product of force and displacement in the direction of the force.
    • Formula for work: W = F ⋅ s or W = F s cos θ.
    • Work is a scalar quantity.
    • Positive work occurs when the angle (θ) is between 0 and π/2; negative work when θ is between π/2 and 3π/2.
    • The SI unit of work is joule (J); CGS unit is erg (1 joule = 10^7 erg).
    • Internal work, where no useful energy is transferred (e.g., carrying a load while standing), results in zero work done.

    Power

    • Power is the rate at which work is done over time.
    • Formula for power: P = W / t or P = F ⋅ v, where v is velocity and θ is the angle between force and velocity.
    • SI unit of power is watt (W), equivalent to 1 joule per second (1 W = 1 J/s).
    • Dimensions of power: [ML²T⁻³].
    • Power is also a scalar quantity.

    Kinetic Energy

    • Kinetic energy (KE) is given by the formula KE = 1/2 mv², where m is mass and v is velocity.
    • SI unit of kinetic energy is joule (J) with dimensions [ML²T⁻²].
    • Kinetic energy is a scalar quantity.
    • The relationship between momentum (p) and kinetic energy: p = √(2mKE).

    Collision Types

    • Elastic collision:
      • Total momentum and total mechanical energy are conserved.
      • Conditions for elastic collision include conservation of both momentum and energy.

    Potential Energy

    • Potential energy can be defined in a conservative field where it depends on position.
    • Example of stable equilibrium: A marble in the bottom of a bowl, where potential energy is minimized.
    • Example of unstable equilibrium: A marble balanced on top of a bowl, where potential energy is maximized.

    Work-Energy Theorem

    • The work-energy theorem states that the work done on an object by net force equals the change in its kinetic energy: W = KE(f) - KE(i).
    • Represents the relationship between work done and kinetic energy changes.

    Additional Concepts

    • A block breaking into two parts affects the velocity of each part in proportion to their masses.
    • The relationship between work done, force, and displacement is integral to understanding energy transformations in mechanics.
