Inertia is the tendency of undisturbed objects to stay at
rest or to keep moving with the same velocity.
When a motor car makes a sharp turn at a high speed,
we tend to get thrown to one side. We tend to continue in
straight line motion. When an unbalanced force is applied by
the engine to change the direction of motion of the motor car,
we move to one side of the seat due to the inertia of our
body.
06. a. State second law of motion.
b. Explain the second law of motion with suitable
example.
c. Derive the value of force using the above law.
Ans. : a. Newton’s second law of motion:
“The rate of change of momentum of an object is
proportional to the applied unbalanced force in the
direction of force”.
b. Illustration of second law of motion:
Let us consider a car with a dead battery is to be pushed
along a straight road to give a speed of 1ms-1 which is
sufficient to start its engine. If one or two persons give a
sudden push (unbalance force) to it, it hardly starts. But
sometime it requires continuous push is required to
accelerate the speed of the car. It means that the change of
momentum of the car is not only determined by the
magnitude of the force but also by the time during which the
force is exerted. So the force necessary to change the
momentum of the objects depends on the time rate at which
the momentum is changed.
c. Derivation of the Force:
Mass of the object = m (moving in straight line)
Initial velocity = u ; time = t ; Final velocity = v
F = Force throughout the time t
Initial momentum of the object = mu
Final momentum of the object = mv
The change in momentum = mv – mu ; = m(v – u) ………(1)

b. Electric Motor
An electric motor is a rotating
tating device that
converts electrical energy
into mechanical energy.
An electric motor
consists of a rectangular coil
ABCD of insulated copper
wire. The coil is placed
between two poles of a
magnetic field such that the
arm AB and CD are
perpendicular to the
direction of magnetic field.
The ends of the coil are
connected to the two halves
S1 and S2 of the splitting.
The inner side of those
halves insulated and
attached to an axle. The
external conducting edges
of S1 and S2 touch two
conducting stationary
brushes B1 and B2
respectively.
