Distance travelled along the arc is ds.

In the same time interval,the radiusvector rotates through an angle d.

Relation Between Linear Velocity and Angular Velocity

Centripetal ForceUCM is an accelerated motion. Why?UCM is accelerated motion because the velocity of the body changes at every instant (i.e. every moment)But, according to Newtons Second Law, there must be a force to produce this acceleration. This force is called the centripetal force.Therefore, Centripetal force is required for circular motion. No centripetal force +> no circular motion.

Velocity and Speed in UCM

Is speed changing?No, speed is constantIs velocity changing?

Yes, velocity is changing because velocity is a vector and direction is changing at every point 7Prof. Mukesh N Tekwani

Examples of Centripetal forceA body tied to a string and whirled in a horizontal circle CPF is provided by the tension in the string.9Prof. Mukesh N Tekwani

9

Examples of Centripetal forceFor a car travelling around a circular road with uniform speed, the CPF is provided by the force of static friction between tyres of the car and the road.10Prof. Mukesh N Tekwani

10

Examples of Centripetal forceIn case of electrons revolving around the nucleus, the centripetal force is provided by the electrostatic force of attraction between the nucleus and the electrons

In case of the motion of moon around the earth, the CPF is provided by the ______ force between Earth and Moon11Prof. Mukesh N Tekwani

11

Centripetal ForceCentripetal forceIt is the force acting on a particle performing UCM and this force is along the radius of the circle and directed towards the centre of the circle.

REMEMBER!Centripetal force- acting on a particle performing UCM- along the radius- acting towards the centre of the circle.


12

Properties of Centripetal ForceCentripetal force is a real force CPF is necessary for maintaining UCM.CPF acts along the radius of the circleCPF is directed towards center of the circle.CPF does not do any workF = mv2/ r

Radial Acceleration

P(x, y)vOXYMNr

xyLet P be the position of the particle performing UCM

r is the radius vector

= t . This is the angular displacement of the particle in time t secs

V is the tangential velocity of the particle at point P.

Draw PM OX

The angular displacement of the particle in time t secs is

LMOP = = t 14Prof. Mukesh N Tekwani

14

Radial Acceleration

P(x, y)vOXYMNr

xyThe position vector of the particle at any time is given by:

r = ix + jy

From POM

sin = PM/OP

sin = y / r

y = r sin

But = t

y = r sin t 15Prof. Mukesh N Tekwani

15

Radial Acceleration

P(x, y)vOXYMNr

xySimilarly,

From POM

cos = OM/OP

cos = x / r

x = r cos

But = t

x = r cos t 16Prof. Mukesh N Tekwani

16

Radial Acceleration17Prof. Mukesh N TekwaniThe velocity of particle at any instant (any time) is called its instantaneous velocity.

The instantaneous velocity is given by

v = dr / dt

v = d/dt [ ir cos wt + jr sin wt]

v = - i r w sin wt + j r w cos wt

17

Radial Acceleration18Prof. Mukesh N TekwaniThe linear acceleration of the particle at any instant (any time) is called its instantaneous linear acceleration.

18

Radial Acceleration19Prof. Mukesh N TekwaniTherefore, the instantaneous linear acceleration is given by

a = - w2 r

Importance of the negative sign: The negative sign in the above equation indicates that the linear acceleration of the particle and the radius vector are in opposite directions.

Relation Between Angular Acceleration and Linear Acceleration20Prof. Mukesh N TekwaniThe acceleration of a particle is given by

But v = r w

a = .... (2)

r is a constant radius,

But

is the angular acceleration

a = r (3)

20

Relation Between Angular Acceleration and Linear Acceleration21Prof. Mukesh N Tekwani

v = w x r

Differentiating w.r.t. time t,

But

and

linear acceleration

a = aT + aR

aT is called the tangential component of linear acceleration

aR is called the radial component of linear acceleration

For UCM, w = constant, so

a = aR in UCM, linear accln is centripetal accln

21

Centrifugal Force22Prof. Mukesh N Tekwani

Centrifugal force is an imaginary force (pseudo force) experienced only in non-inertial frames of reference.

This force is necessary in order to explain Newtons laws of motion in an accelerated frame of reference.

Centrifugal force is acts along the radius but is directed away from the centre of the circle.

Direction of centrifugal force is always opposite to that of the centripetal force.

Centrifugal force

Centrifugal force is always present in rotating bodies

22

Examples of Centrifugal Force23Prof. Mukesh N Tekwani

When a car in motion takes a sudden turn towards left, passengers in the car experience an outward push to the right. This is due to the centrifugal force acting on the passengers.

The children sitting in a merry-go-round experience an outward force as the merry-go-round rotates about the vertical axis.

Centripetal and Centrifugal forces DONOT constitute an action-reaction pair. Centrifugal force is not a real force. For action-reaction pair, both forces must be real.

23

Banking of Roads24Prof. Mukesh N Tekwani

When a car is moving along a curved road, it is performing circular motion. For circular motion it is not necessary that the car should complete a full circle; an arc of a circle is also treated as a circular path.

We know that centripetal force (CPF) is necessary for circular motion. If CPF is not present, the car cannot travel along a circular path and will instead travel along a tangential path.

24


The centripetal force for circular motion of the car can be provided in two ways:Frictional force between the tyres of the car and the road.Banking of Roads

25

Friction between Tyres and Road26Prof. Mukesh N Tekwani

The centripetal force for circular motion of the car is provided by the frictional force between the tyres of the car and the road.

Let m = mass of the carV = speed of the car, andR = radius of the curved road.

Since centripetal force is provided by the frictional force, CPF = frictional force (provide by means equal to )

( is coefficient of friction between tyres & road)

So and

26


Thus, the maximum velocity with which a car can safely travel along a curved road is given by

If the speed of the car increases beyond this value, the car will be thrown off (skid).

If the car has to move at a higher speed, the frictional force should be increased. But this cause wear and tear of tyres.

The frictional force is not reliable as it can decrease on wet roads

So we cannot rely on frictional force to provide the centripetal force for circular motion.

27


R1 and R2 are reaction forces due to the tyres

mg is the weight of the car, acting vertically downwards

F1 and F2 are the frictional forces between the tyres and the road.

These frictional forces act towards the centre of the circular path and provide the necessary centripetal force.

Banked Roads31Prof. Mukesh N Tekwani

What is banking of roads?

The process of raising the outer edge of a road over the inner edge through a certain angle is known as banking of road.

31


Purpose of Banking of Roads:Banking of roads is done:To provide the necessary centripetal force for circular motionTo reduce wear and tear of tyres due to frictionTo avoid skiddingTo avoid overturning of vehicles

32


33


What is angle of banking?

R

R cos W = mgR sin The angle made by the surface of the road with the horizontal surface is called as angle of banking.Horizontal Surface of road

34


Consider a car moving along a banked road.

Letm = mass of the carV = speed of the car isangleof banking

R

R cos W = mgR sin

35


The forces acting on the car are:

(i) Its weightmgacting vertically downwards.

(ii) The normal reactionRacting perpendicular to the surface of the road.

R

R cos W = mgR sin

36


The normal reaction can be resolved (broken up) into two components:

R cos is the vertical component

R sin is the horizontal component

R

R cos W = mgR sin

37


Since the vehicle has no vertical motion, the weight is balanced by the vertical component

R cos = mg (1)

(weight is balanced by vertical component means weight is equal to vertical component)

R

R cos W = mgR sin

38


The horizontal component is the unbalanced component . This horizontal component acts towards the centre of the circular path.

This component provides the centripetal force for circular motion

R sin = (2)

R

R cos W = mgR sin

39


Dividing (2) by (1), we get

R sin =

mgR cos = tan-1 ( )

So,

tan =

Therefore, the angle of banking is independent of the mass of the vehicle.

The maximum speed with which the vehicle can safely travel along the curved road is

40


Smaller radius: larger centripetal force is required to keep it in uniform circular motion.A car travels at a constant speed around two curves. Where is the car most likely to skid? Why?

A conical pendulum is a simple pendulum which is given a motion so that the bob describes a horizontal circle and the string describes a cone.

A conical pendulum is a simple pendulum which is given such a motion that the bob describes a horizontal circle and the string describes a cone.

43


Consider a bob of mass m revolving in a horizontal circle of radius r.

Letv = linear velocity of the bobh = heightT = tension in the string = semi vertical angle of the coneg = acceleration due to gravityl = length of the stringT cos

44


The forces acting on the bob at position A are:

Weight of the bob acting vertically downward

Tension T acting along the string.

T cos

T sin

45


The tension T in the string can be resolved (broken up) into 2 components as follows:

Tcos acting vertically upwards. This force is balanced by the weight of the bobT cos = mg ..(1)

T cos

T sin

46


(ii) T sin acting along the radius of the circle and directed towards the centre of the circle

T sin provides the necessary centripetal force for circular motion.

T sin = .(2)

Dividing (2) by (1) we get,

.(3)T cos

T sin

47


T cos

T sin

This equation gives the speed of the bob.

But v = rw

rw =

Squaring both sides, we get

Factors affecting time period of conical pendulum: The period of the conical pendulum depends on the following factors:

Length of the pendulumAngle of inclination to the verticalAcceleration due to gravity at the given place

Time period is independent of the mass of the bob

Vertical Circular Motion Due to Earths Gravitation52Prof. Mukesh N Tekwani

Consider an object of mass m tied to the end of an inextensible string and whirled in a vertical circle of radius r.

mgT1Orv1AT2Bv2v3CHighest Point A:Let the velocity be v1

The forces acting on the object at A (highest point) are:Tension T1 acting in downward directionWeight mg acting in downward direction

53


mgT1Orv1AT2Bv2v3CAt the highest point A:

The centripetal force acting on the object at A is provided partly by weight and partly by tension in the string:

The forces acting on the object at B (lowest point) are:Tension T2 acting in upward directionWeight mg acting in downward direction

55

(2)

56


mgT1Orv1AT2Bv2v3CLinear velocity of object at highest point A:

The object must have a certain minimum velocity at point A so as to continue in circular path.

This velocity is called the critical velocity. Below the critical velocity, the string becomes slack and the tension T1 disappears (T1 = 0)

57



58



This is the minimum velocity that the object must have at the highest point A so that the string does not become slack.

If the velocity at the highest point is less than this, the object can not continue in circular orbit and the string will become slack.

59


mgT1Orv1AT2Bv2v3CLinear velocity of object at lowest point B:

When the object moves from the lowest position to the highest position, the increase in potential energy is mg x 2r

By the law of conservation of energy,KEA + PEA = KEB + PEB

60



At the highest point A, the minimum velocity must be

Using this in

we get,

61



Therefore, the velocity of the particle is highest at the lowest point.If the velocity of the particle is less than this it will not complete the circular path.
