Force

General properties of force


 A force is an interaction between objects that may change the motion of an
object.
 A force is exerted on an object.
 A force has a giver and a receiver.
 A force is a vector that has both magnitude and direction.
 The unit of force is Newton or “N”.
 Coplanar forces are 2-D forces that are in same plane.

Resolving a force

 To resolving a force is to decompose the force into two components.


 It is the reverse process of adding two vectors.

 Resolving a force into its component is a reverse process of addition of


vectors.

 We resolve a force in its component by using parallelogram rule.

We can use right angle rules here.

Pythagoras theorem or trigonometric ratio or x-component

X = r cosθ

Y = r sin θ

X = r cosθ

X = 4 cosθ = √2

Y = 4 sin 4.5 = √2

 To find the resultant is to compose all forces into one.


 Equivalent to finding the vector sum of all forces.

So, vertical direction force √3 - √3 =

Now the rectangle force 𝑟 2 = (√3 − √2) 𝑠𝑞𝑢𝑎𝑟𝑒 + (3 + √3)

𝑟 2 = 5.61 + 33.971

𝑟 2 = √39.58

𝑟 2 = 629 N

Which is required resultant force and that force making angle with horizontal axis.

Θ= 𝑡𝑎𝑛−1 (𝑦)

Where:

X = sum of all x components or horizontal components

Y = sum of all y-components or vertical components

If we have 2 forces involved we can use triangle rules.

Use sin Θ rule cosine rule to find the resultant.

Kinds of force

Gravity

 Always point downwards


 G = mg ( m is mass in kg/g)
 g = 10 meter per seconds (gravitational Acceleration)

Contract force

 When 2 surfaces are contact there may be 2 contact forces.


 One is normal contact / reaction force.
 Fractional force which is parallel to the surface.

Friction

 The largest friction force is called limiting


Force = 𝐹𝑙𝑖𝑚
 𝐹𝑙𝑖𝑚 = μR , where: μ is coefficient of friction
 𝐹𝑟 ≤𝐹𝑙𝑖𝑚 , friction force is always less than the limiting friction.
 If the object remains still, friction is smaller than 𝐹𝑙𝑖𝑚
 When the object is about to more or is moving the frictional force is

Force
Definition:
Force is a kind of energy which changes or tends to change the state of
body.

 The pull or push is known as force.


 Force is a vector quantity so to represent the force we need
a. Magnitude of the force
b. The direction of the applied force
c. Applying point of force.

The unit of force is Newton denoted by “N”.

There are different kinds of force.

 Weight : W =mg
 Normal contact force: R
“According to first law of motion there is a reaction of an action.”

A book exert a force on the table which is gravitational times to the


mass of the book and due to gravity acting down word on the table

4 AZHAR AHMED KHAN (0364-1442206)


there is another force reacting from table to the book this force is
known as “National Force” and denoted by “R”

This normal Force = weight

∑Fy = R - w

Since book in the form of rest

So, ∑Fy = 0

Therefore

0=R–w

W=R

mg = R

So on the flat horizontal surface

R = mg = w

Force applying on Body

Body I sin static form

5 AZHAR AHMED KHAN (0364-1442206)


∑Fy = R – w

∑Fy = F – fr

If body moves or in moving from then you observe some acceleration in


the body. So

∑Fx = max

max = F - fr

Thus the net force is equal to the product of mass and acceleration of a
body.

Fnet=ma

Note that

Fr= μR (μ = constant of friction)

Tension Force

A body is pulling by a rope tied to the body and body is moving in


direction of force

We know

Fk = μR

∑ Fy = R + Ty – w

6 AZHAR AHMED KHAN (0364-1442206)


∑ Fy = R + Tsinϴ - w

∑ Fy = 0 (if body in state of rest )

So

0 = R + T sin ϴ - w

R = w – T sin ϴ

Now forces along x-axis on in x-direction

∑ Fx = - fk + Tx

∑ Fx = T cos ϴ - fk

Here remember

If body moving with constant speed then a = 0

So sum of all forces in x – direction is zero.

Then

∑ Fy = 0

0 = Tx - fk

T x = fk

T x = fk

If body is moving without constant speed.

Then

a=0

7 AZHAR AHMED KHAN (0364-1442206)


So the net force along x – axis is ma

∑ Fx = ma

Thus

Ma = T1 cos ϴ - fk

Ma = T1 cos ϴ - μk R
 f k   R 

Thus

ma = T cos ϴ - μk R

Example:

Force on lifting body

A body of 10kg is lifting by 40N Force

Find its Normal Force = ? (T = 40 N and w = 100N)

R T

∑ Fy = R + R – w

0 = R + 40 – 1w

= R + + 40 – 1w

R = 60N

8 AZHAR AHMED KHAN (0364-1442206)


In pressing a body Normal Force = ?

m = 10 kg

F = 200 N R

W = 100 N

We know that

∑ Fy = R – w – F

0 = R – 100 – 200

R = 300 N

Note: by lifting a body the normal force decreases and by pressing a


body normal increases.

Example:

A horizontal force of 150 N is applied on a body of 20kg. which causes


to move to right.

Question:
21 AZHAR AHMED KHAN (0364-1442206)
The ring has a mass of 2kg. The horizontal rod is rough and the coefficient of
friction between ring and rod is 0.24. Find the two values of T for which the ring is
in limiting equilibrium.

The ring is in limiting equilibrium in two different scenarios; we have to find T in


both:

Scenario 1: ring is about to move upwards

Resultant = T sin 30 – friction –Weight of Ring

Since the system is in equilibrium, resultant = 0 :

Contact Force = T cos 30

Friction = 0.24 * T cos 30 PN

Substitute relevant information in to initial equation 30

0 = T sin 30 – 0.24 T cos 30 - 20

T = 68.5N

Scenario 2: ring is about to move downwards

This time friction acts in the opposite direction since friction opposes the
direction of motion, thus:

Resultant = T sin30 + 0.24 T cos 30-20

T = 28.3N

Friction = 0.36 * 6 cos 25

Scenario 1: part5icle is about to move upwards

P = 6 sin 25 – Friction

P = 4.49 N

The forward force of the engine is F = 2500 N, find the acceleration and tension in

Solution:

To find acceleration, regard the system as a single object. The internal Ts cancel
out and give;

2500-(200+150+90) = 1900a

A= 1.08 m/s

To find T1 , look at C

F - T1 - 200 = 1000a

2500 - T1 - 200 = 1000 * 1.08

T1 = 1220 N

To find T2 , look at A

i. Find tension in string. Find acceleration of particles while both are

Part (i)

Effect of weight caused by P in direction of slope:

Body P has greater mass that body Q so when released P moves down q moves

Kinds of force
Gravity

 Always point downwards


 G = mg ( m is mass in kg/g)
 g = 10 meter per seconds (gravitational Acceleration)

Contract force
 When 2 surfaces are contact there may be 2 contact forces.
 One is normal contact / reaction force.
 Fractional force which is parallel to the surface.

Friction
 The largest friction force is called limiting Force = 𝐹𝑙𝑖𝑚
 𝐹𝑙𝑖𝑚 = μR , where: μ is coefficient of friction
 𝐹𝑟 ≤𝐹𝑙𝑖𝑚 , friction force is always less than the limiting friction.
 If the object remains still, friction is smaller than 𝐹𝑙𝑖𝑚
 When the object is about to more or is moving the frictional force is 𝐹𝑙𝑖𝑚 and it is never greater

Work, Power and Energy


Work:

Work is defined as a body covers some distance in direction of force.


Then we say work is done.

Energy
Ability to do work is known as energy.

The capacity of a body to do a work is known as energy.

The capacity of a body to do a work.

Types:

There are different kinds of energy

 Kinetic Energy
 Potential Energy
 Thermal Energy
 Chemical Energy
 Nuclear Energy.

Here we discuss kinetic and potential energy mathematically.

Kinetic Energy:

39 AZHAR AHMED KHAN (0364-1442206)


Energy due to motion K.E form of energy that an object or a
partical has by reason of its motion. If work which transfers energy is
done on an object by applying net force the object speeds up and there
by gains kinetic energy.

Kinetic energy is a property of a moving object or particle and depends


not only on the motion but also on its mass.

The kind of motion may be translation Rotation, vibrations etc.

 Translational kinetic energy of a body is equal to one- half of the


product of the mass and square of velocity of body.
m  K .E
K.E = ½ mv 2 where
v  K .E
Unit of Energy:
The unit of the energy (K.E) is in the
Meter - kilogram – per second
Which is in the unit international system known as Joule and
denoted by J.

Potential Energy:

P.E is stored energy that depends upon the relative position of various
parts of a system. A spring has more potential energy when it is
compressed or stretched.

Gravitational Potential Energy:

Near the Earth it is computed by multiplying the weight of an object by


its distance above the refrence point. Potential Energy may be
converted into energy of motion, called Kinetic Energy and it turn to
the other forms such as electric energy.

by the lawof energy

 Work done by external Force = ∆K.E


 ∆K.E = final K.E – Initial K.E
 Work done against the resistance = loss in K.E

Law of conservation of Energy:

Energy exists in many forms. “Energy may be transformed from one


form to another form but it cannot be created or destroyed. I.e. in any
mechanical process “total energy remains same.

Thus

K.E + P.E = constant

The work done by an external force = ∆ PE + ∆work done against


friction

 The law of conversation of Energy states that the total energy of


an object remains constant if no external force other than gravity
have done any work on it
 Normal contact force has done no work.
 The shape of the surface doesn’t matter.
 Work done by the forces (friction) = loss of K.E
43 AZHAR AHMED KHAN (0364-1442206)
 Work done by forces that help to move = gain of K.E

Note:

∆ KE + ∆PE = 0  ∆ KE = -∆ PE (info external force )

∆KE + ∆ PE = (w) – (w-)

∆ PE + (w+)-(w-)

∆PE + ∆ KE = (w+) – (w-)
