 Kinetics of System of Particles
Generalized Newton’s second law of motion
▪ n mass particles bounded by a closed surface in space
▪ F1, F2, F3, … acting on mi from sources
external to the envelope.
:: e.g, contact with external bodies,
gravitational, electric, magnetic etc.)
▪ f1, f2, f3, … acting on mi from
sources internal to the system boundary Non-accelerating
reference axes
:: e.g, reaction forces from other mass
particles within the boundary

Generalized Newton’s second law of motion

• This equation is called Generalized Newton’s second law of
motion for a mass system and is called the equation of motion
of m

• For a non rigid mechanical system which includes elastic members

capable of storing energy a part of the work done by the external
forces goes into changing the internal elastic P.E

Linear Momentum (for single particle: G = mv)

▪ Linear Momentum of the system is

defined as the vector sum of the LM
of all its particles.
▪ Now
 Kinetics of System of Particles
Impulse momentum

Linear momentum of any system of constant mass is the

product of the mass and the velocity of its center of mass

Time derivative of G: = ΣF

The equation has the same form as that for

a single particle.
Resultant of the external forces on any
mass system = time rate of change of
Linear Momentum of the system
