Let us say a P particle is moving along some path.
We are studying this with respect to some reference frame in which we have fixed coordinate axis.
pp′=Δr =r(t+Δt)−r(t)
vp=limitΔt→0Δtr(t+Δt)−r(t)
r(t+Δt)=(t+Δx)^+(y+Δy)^
r(t)=x^+y^
Δr=Δx^+Δy^
V =ΔtΔx^ + ΔtΔy^=v2^+vt^
v=vx^+vy^
V=∣v∣=vx2+vy2 or v.
tanθ=vxvy
Acceleration a, is given as the rate of change of velocity.
Δv=v(t+Δt)−v(t)
a=limΔt→0Δtv(t+Δt)−v(t)
a=ax^+ay^
ax = x component of accelaration = ΔtΔvx
ay = y component of accelaration = ΔtΔvy
ax=dtdvx=dtd(dtdx)=dt2d2x
ay=dtdvy=dtd(dtdy)=dt2d2y
When a particle moves in a straight line, v,a are along the same direction.
When a particle is moving in a curved path,
Velocity v at any instant is tangent to the path.
What about the acceleration a ?
Acceleration =ΔtΔv.
The direction of acceleration has to be along Δv.
Accelaration on a curved path is due to two components.
a) change in speed of the particle along e^t
b) 2nd component is perpendicular to the et^, because direction of v changes due to the curved nature of path.
2nd component perpendicular to the et^, points towards the centre of circle in which the particle is moving.
an∝( speed )2
If locally, the particle is moving in a circle of radius R.
an=Rv2
R = radius of curvature
Particle following a circular path.
Uniform ⇒ constant speed =v
ap=Rv2
Δθ→ angle covered by the particle with respect to the centre of circle,
Δθ→ angular displacement
Δt→ time taken for particle to go from P→P′
Angular velocity =ΔtΔθ=ω
ω=ΔtΔθ
v=ΔtPP′
speed = ΔtΔS=ΔtPP′=ΔtRΔθ
=Rω
acceleration =Rv2=RR2ω2=Rω2
acceleration towards centre → centripetal acceleration.
Time taken for one revolution
=time period =T
Number of revolution made in 1sec = frequency =T1 =ν
ω= time angular displacement=T2π
ω=T2π=2πν
v=Rω=2πRν
a=Rω2=4π2ν2R
If circular motion is not uniform speed, the speed of the particle changes.
⇒ω is not constant.
α→ angular acceleration =dtdω
v=Rωet^
a=Rdtdωet^+Rω2e^n

r (position vector) at time t
given r0 at t=0.
Average velocity =2v0+v
displacement =r−r0= (2v0+v)t
=2v0+(v0+at)t
r−r0=v0t+21at2

Equation of the path: relate x to y.
Initial velocity v0
The speed v0 and the angle θ0.
v0x=v0cosθ0
v0y=v0sinθ0
We wish to find coordinate of projectile (p) at a later time.
a=−g^,ax=0,ay=−g
v0=(v0cosθ0)^+(v0sinθ0)^
v0=(0,0) x0=0, y0=0
x=(v0t)=(v0cosθ0)t
y=(v0sinθ0)t−21gt2
Eliminate t
vx=v0cosθ0
vy=v0sinθ0−gt

A particle which is thrown as a projectile has the path taken by that is of a parabola.

=2gv02sin2θ0
Range: Time taken for flight =Tf
time at which y=0.
0 = v0sinθ0t - 21gt2
Tf = g2v0sinθ0
R = x = (v0cosθ0)Tf
= (v0cosθ0) ⋅ g2v0sinθ0
= gv02sin(2θ0)
R= gv02sin2θ0
Maximum R for a given v0 occurs at θ0=450
