Physics 4: Linear Momentum and Energy Name __________________________

A. Momentum and Energy (6-1 to 6-4, 6-10, 7-1 to 7-2)

1. an objects momentum (quantity of motion) is unchanged unless acted upon by a force for a period of time (impulse): FΔt = mΔv = Δp

2. an objects mechanical energy is unchanged unless acted upon by a force for a distance (work): W = F||d

a. mechanical energy is energy of motion (thrown rock) or the potential of moving (rock on a hill)

b. measured in joules (1 J = 1 N•m)

c. Only component of F parallel to d does work

F

θ

d

F|| = Fcosθ ∴ W = (Fcosθ)d

|W > 0 |W = 0 |W < 0 |

|F → d → |F Ε d Δ |F → d ← |

d. variable force—stretching a spring

1. graph spring force (Fs) vs. position (x)

| Fs = kx | |

| | slope = k |x |

| | | |

| |Area = W | |

2. Fs = kx ∴ slope = ΔFs/Δx = k

3. W = Fsx ∴ area = ½x(kx) = ½kx2 = W

e. power is the rate work is done: P = W/t (W)

1. measured in watts (1 W = 1 J/s)

2. P = W/t = F(d/t) = Fvav (v is average)

3. graphing

a. P = W/t ∴ slope of W vs. t graph

b. P = Fvav ∴ area under F vs. v graph

4. kilowatt-hour, 1KWh = 3.6 x 106 J

3. kinetic and potential energy

a. something an object has regardless of direction

c. kinetic energy—energy of motion

1. positive only

2. K = ½mv2 = p2/2m

|Steps |Algebra |

|start with |v2 = v02 + 2ad |

|assume Ko = 0 ∴ vo = 0 |v2 = 2ad |

|solve for ad |ad = ½v2 |

|start with |K = W = Fd |

|substitute ma for F |K = (ma)d = m(ad) |

|substitute ½v2 for ad |K = m(½v2) |

|rearrange |K = ½mv2 |

|start with |mv = p |

|square both sides |m2v2 = p2 |

|divide both sides by 2m |m2v2/2m = p2/2m |

|substitute K for ½mv2 |K = p2/2m |

d. potential energy—energy of relative position

1. gravitational potential energy

a. based on arbitrary zero

(usually closest or farthest apart)

b. ΔUg = Ug = mgh (near the Earth's surface)

|Steps |Algebra |

|start with |Ug = W = Fd |

|substitute mg for F |Ug = (mg)d |

|substitute h for d |Ug = mgh |

c. Ug = -GMm/r (orbiting system)

1. G = 6.67 x 10-11 N•m2/kg2

2. r = distance from center to center

3. Ug = 0 when r is ∞ ∴ Ug < 0 for all values of r because positive work is needed reach Ug = 0

2. spring (elastic) potential energy, Us = ½kx2

a. Us = W to stretch the spring

b. see work by a variable force above

B. Solving Work-Energy Problems (6-5 to 6-9)

1. work done on object A by a "nonconservative" force (push or pull, friction) results in the change in amount of mechanical energy

2. work done on object A by a "conservative" force (gravity, spring) results in the change in form of mechanical energy (U Δ K) for object A, but no loss in energy

a. conservative forces (Fg and Fs)

1. Fg ↓ d ↓: Ug → K, Fg ↓ d ↑: K → Ug

2. Fs ↓ d ↓: Us → K, Fs ↓ d ↑: K → Us

b. process isn't 100 % efficient

1. friction (W = Ffd) reduces mechanical energy

2. mechanical energy is converted into random kinetic energy of the object's atoms and the temperature increases = heat energy—Q

3. total energy is still conserved

3. examples

| | |Process |Energy |

|1 |Work done to |pull a pendulum bob off center |W → Ug |

| |Transformation |release pendulum |Ug → K |

| |Work done by |hit a stationary object |K → W |

|2 |Work done to |throw a ball into the air |W → K |

| |Transformation |ball rises and falls |K Δ Ug |

| |Work done by |falling ball dents ground |K → W |

|3 |Work done to |load a projectile in spring-gun |W → Us |

| |Transformation |release projectile |Us → K |

| |Work done by |projectile penetrates target |K → W |

4. general solution for work-energy problems

|determine initial energy of the object, Eo |

|if elevated h distance: Ug = mgh |

|if accelerated to v velocity: K = ½mv2 |

|if spring compressed x distance: Us = ½kx2 |

|determine energy added/subtracted due to an external push or pull: Wp = |

|±F||d |

|determine energy removed from the object by friction: Wf = Ffd = (μFn)d |

|= (μmgcosθ)d |

|d is the distance traveled |

|θ is the angle of incline (0o for horizontal) |

|determine resulting energy, E' = Eo ± Wp – Wf |

|determine d, h, x or v |

|if slides a distance d: 0 = Eo ± Wp – μmgcosθd' |

|if elevates a height h: E' = mgh' |

|If compresses a spring x: Us: E' = ½kx'2 |

|if accelerated to velocity v: E' = ½mv'2 |

|general equation (not all terms apply for each problem) |

|K + Ug + Us ± Wp – Wf = K' + Ug'+ Us' |

|½mv2 + mgh + ½kx2 ± Fpd – Ffd = ½mv'2 + mgh' + ½kx'2 |

C. Solving Collision Problems (7-3 to 7-7)

1. collision between particles doesn't change the total amount of momentum because the impulse on A equals the impulse on B, but in the opposite directions

a. mAvA + mBvB = mAvA’ + mBvB’

|Steps |Algebra |

|start with Newton's Law |FA = -FB |

|multiply both side by Δt |FAΔt = -FBΔt |

|substitute mΔv for FΔt |mAΔvA = -mBΔvB |

|substitute v' – v for Δv |mA(vA’ – vA) = -mB(vB’ – vB) |

|collect like v terms |-mAvA – mBvB = -mAvA’ – mBvB’ |

|multiply by -1 |mAvA + mBvB = mAvA’ + mBvB’ |

b. two particles collide and stick together

1. inelastic collisions (vA' = vB')

2. mAvA + mBvB = (mA + mB)v’

|substitute v' for vA' and vB' |mAvA + mBvB = mAv’ + mBv’ |

|simplify |mAvA + mBvB = (mA + mB)v’ |

c. two particles collide and bounce off

1. elastic collisions (vA' ≠ vB')

2. both energy and momentum are conserved

a. two unknowns ∴ need two equations

b. mAvA + mBvB = mAvA’ + mBvB’

c. ½mAvA2 + ½mBvB2 = ½mAvA’2 + ½mBvB’2

d. simpler equation: vA + vA' = vB + vB’

|mAvA + mBvB = |½mAvA2 + ½mBvB2 = |

|mAvA’ + mBvB’ |½mAvA’2 + ½mBvB’2 |

|mA(vA – vA') = mB(vB' – vB) |mA(vA2 – vA'2) = mB(vB'2 – vB2) |

|mA(vA2 – vA'2) = mB(vB'2 – vB2) |

|mA(vA – vA') = mB(vB' – vB) |

|(vA – vA')(vA + vA') = (vB – vB')(vB + vB') |

|(vA – vA') = (vB' – vB) |

3. solving two equations and two unknowns

|fill in vA and vB into vA + vA' = vB + vB' |

|write expression for vA’ in terms of vB' |

|substitute vA' expression in equation: |

|mAvA + mBvB = mAvA’ + mBvB’ |

|solve for vB’ |

|m vm |

|bullet collides inelastically with block: mvm = (M + m)v' |

|block swings or slides (conservation of energy) |

|block swings like a pendulum to height h |

|K = Ug ∴ ½(M + m)v'2 = (M + m)gh ∴ h = v'2/2g |

|block slides a distance d along a rough surface |

|K = Wf ∴ ½(M + m)v'2 = μ(M + m)gd ∴ d = v'2/2μg |
