    Chapter 1: Overview of Classical Mechanics (CM)

    CM is the study of the motion of bodies in accordance with the generalprincipals rst enunciated by Issac Newton (1687)

    CM has many applications in different areas of science such asastronomy , Chemistry , Geology , and Engineering

    Types of motion studied in CM:

    Translational motion : a body shifts from one point in space toanother

    Rotational motion : an extended body changes orientation, withrespect to other bodies in space, without changing position

    Oscillatory motion : continually repeats in time with a xed periodCircular motion : a body executes a circular orbit about anotherxed body.

    Chapter 1: Measurements in physics (1)

    Units of measurements

    Three fundamental quantities which are subject to measurement used inCM:Interval in space lengthQuantities of inertia , or mass , processed by various bodiesInterval in time

    SI system (Systemme International) mks units SI system is a standard units for basis quantities. It was establishedin 1960 by an international committeemks system is for length (meter), mass (kilogram) and time (second)

    Length : the meter (m) is redened as the distance traveled by light invacuum during a time of 1/299 792 458 second.

    Mass : the kilogram (kg), is dened as the mass of a specic platinumiridium alloy cylinder kept at the International Bureau of Weights andMeasures at Sevres, France.Time : the second (s), is dened as 9 192631 770 times the period of vibration of radiation from the cesium-133 atom.

    Chapter 1: Units of measurements

    Units of derived quantities

    Velocity: [v ] = ms 1

    Acceleration: [a ] = ms 2

    Angular momentum: [ p ] = kgms 1

    Standard prexesA set of standard prexes is a modication of the mks units of length, mass

    and time which is devised to deal more easily with very small and very largequantities (the motion of molecules and the motion of stars in the Galaxy).

    Chapter 1: Dimensional analysis

    Dimension denotes a physical nature of a quantityDimensions of three fundamental quantities length, mass and time are L,

    M, T, respectively.We use brackets [ ] to denote the dimension of a quantity.Dimension of speed: [v ] = L/ T Dimension of volume: [V ] = L3

    Acceleration: [a ] = L/ T 2

    Dimensions can be treated as algebraic quantities.All laws of physics are dimensionally consistent:

    A = B [A] = [B ]

    Application of dimensional analysis is to check the forms of simple lawsof physics.Exercise:

    Find dimensions of density = m / V , momentum p = mv ; x = at 2 / 2Show that the expression v = at is dimensionally correct.

    Chapter 1: Uncertainty and signicant gures (1)

    Uncertainties of measurementsWhen physical quantities are measured, the measured values are knownonly to within the limits of the experimental uncertainty.The value of uncertainty depends on:

    quality of apparatusthe skill of the experimenterthe number of measurements performed

    Signicant guresExample:

    5.5 2 signicant gures0.1 1 signicant gures

    Multiplicity rule: when multiplying several quantities, the number of signicant gures in the nal answer is the same as the number of signicant gures in the least accurate (having the lowest number of signicant gures) of the quantities being multiplied. The same ruleapplies to division.

    Chapter 1: Uncertainty and signicant gures (2)

    Signicant guresZero may NOT be signicant gures: those used to position the decimalpoint such as: 0.03 (1 signicant gure) and 0.0075 (2 signicant gures).Zero may be signicant gures: when zeros come after other digits.However there is the possibility of mis-interpretation should usescientic notation to indicate the number of signicant gures:

    1500 1.5 103 if there are 2 SFs1500 1.50 103 if there are 3 SFs1500 1.500 103 if there are 4 SFs0.00023 2.30 10 4 if there are 3 SFs.

    When numbers are added or subtracted, the number of decimal places in

    the result should equal the smallest number of decimal places of any termin the sum:123 + 5.35 = 1281.002 - 0.998 = 0.004

    Average speed: the ratio of the total distance it travels to the total time ittakes to travel that distance.Instantaneous speed = |v |

    Motion with constant velocityProblem: given v = const , nd displacement x with time t ?Answer:

    v = dx / dt dx = v .dt x = v .t + C C =? : t = 0 x = x 0 (displacement of the object at t = 0 or initialdisplacement). x (t ) = x 0 + v .t

    Problem: Plot the graph of displacement versus time for a body movingwith constant velocity?Conclusion with motion with constant velocity:

    The graph of x versus t is a straight line.v = x / t gradient of the graph/straight line.a = d 2 x / dt 2 = 0 v = const : consistent with the denition!x increases v > 0 OR object moving to the right,x decreases v < 0 OR object moving to the left,x = const v = 0 OR object remains at rest.

    Chapter 1: Motion in three dimensions (1)

    To deal with 3-dimensional motion, it is necessary to set up a suitablecoordinate system.

    Vectors

    Cartesian coordinates

    Cartesian coordinate system consistsof three mutually perpendicular axes.

    Vector and scalar quantities

    Scalar quantity is specied by a single value with an appropriate unitand has no direction such as temperature, volume, mass, timeA vector quantity has both magnitude and direction. Examples:displacement,velocity, accelerator, force .

    Vector additionSum of two vectors is the vector down from the tail of the rstvector to the tip of the last vector.Parallelogram rule of addition A + B = B + AAssociative law of addition: A + ( B + C ) = ( A + B ) + C

    Negative of a vector: A + ( A) = 0 have the same magnitude butpoint in opposite direction.Subtracting vector: A B = A + ( B )

    Components of a vector and unit vectorsComponents of a vector are the projections of that vector alongcoordinate axes: A = ( Ax , Ay , Az ).?? Can the components of a vector ever be greater than the magnitude of the vector?hint: Ax = | A| .sin.cos ; Ay = | A| .sin sin ; Az = | A| .cos

    Gravitational force: f g = m. g The normal force/normal reaction and weight:

    Weight: the weight W of a body is the magnitude of the downwardforce it exerts on any object which supports it.Normal force: under the inuence of the weight of the object,obeying the Newtons third law, the surface of the supporting objectwill act back on the surface of the object this called normalreaction or normal force

    Normal force is a force exerted by one surface on another i adirection perpendicular to the surface of contact.The magnitude of the weight = the normal force .Exercise:

    Find weight of an object resting on a table?

    Find weight of an object of mass m resting on the oor of anelevator moving with acceleration a?Relation between mass and weight : W = m.g in case of accelerator of the frame = 0 and f g = m g is perpendicular to the surface.Friction: f = .R n , where : coefficient of friction and R n is normalreaction of the surface.

    Possible to associate a potential energy with any conservativeforce-eld.

    Any force-eld for which we can dene a potential energy mustnecessary be conservative.

    The concept of potential energy is meaning-less in anon-conservative force-eld.

    Potential energy dene to within an arbitrary additive constant sowe can choose an arbitrary point at which U = 0.

    Potential energy is not a property of the body BUT a property of the force-eld within which the body moves.The potential energy function U can be dened such that the work

    done by a conservative force equals the decrease in the potentialenergy of the system:

    The total mechanical energy of a system remains constant in anyisolated system of objects that interact only through conservativeforces.

    K i + U i = K f + U f

    If there are more than one conservative force acting on an objectwithin a system (sum over all conservative forces present):

    K i + U i = K f + U f

    If there are some of the forces acting on objects within the systemare not conservative , the total mechanical energy of the systemdoes not remain constant. The change in mechanical energy is equalthe total work done by non-conservative forces present.

    Work done by an applied forceWork-kinetic energy theorem: W app + W g = K Gravitational force is conservative W g = U W app = K + U an applied force can transfer energy into or out of the system.

    Work done by kinetic friction

    Kinetic friction makes total mechanical energy of the systemdissipated (as heat, e.g):

    E = K + U = F f . S

    We have: v f = v f 1 = v f 2 m1 v i 1 + m2 v i 2 = m1 v f 1 + m2 v f 2 = ( m1 + m2 )v f

    v f = m1 v i 1 + m2 v i 2m1 + m2

    two objects remain stationary in the center of mass velocity frame.Suppose that v i 2 = 0
