1 The law of Conservation of Energy
2 Force as the derivative of potential energy We often encounter situations where we know the potential energy as a function of position and we need to find the corresponding force. We recall that for a conservative force: W = ΔU So if we now apply this to a small displacement Δx, the work done by the force Fx(x) during this displacement approaches Fx(x) Δx as Δx approaches zero. F x (x)δx = ΔU F x (x) = ΔU Δx So in the limit as Δx 0 F x (x) = du(x) dx
3 Force as the derivative of potential energy F x (x)δx = ΔU F x (x) = ΔU Δx So in the limit as Δx 0 F x (x) = du(x) dx
4 Energy diagrams give us insight Energy diagrams plot energy as a function of position. These diagrams give useful information about limits and zeros for the physical properties involved.

33 Momentum, Impulse and Angular Momentum
34 Introduction If you watch a football game, you ll see collisions, tackles, many men colliding at once, maybe just two in an open area. Are these situations different? Newton told us the forces result in acceleration of a mass. We will now study two new points of view momentum and impulse. F = ma = m d v dt = d dt (m v) = d p dt
35 How does momentum relate to mass and velocity? Understanding momentum begins with the simple relationship that momentum is equal to mass multiplied by velocity.
36 Impulse F = ma = d p dt = p p 2 1 t 2 t 1 F(t t ) 2 1 = p 2 p 1 = J
37 Impulse
38 The meaning of the area of a F versus t graph The impulse is the area under the F versus t graph
39 Impulse Although impulse and momentum are both vector quantities, it is often easier to deal with the components.
40 Compare momentum and kinetic energy The work-energy theorem tells us that a change in a particle s kinetic energy is due to work done on the particle W tot = K 2 K 1 The impulse-momentum theorem tells us that a change in a particle s momentum is due to an impulse J = p 2 p 1
41 Compare momentum and kinetic energy The work-energy theorem focuses on the distance of force application. The impulse momentum relationship depends on duration of an impact. Both rest on the foundation of Newton s laws and are integral principles, relating the motion at two different times separated by a finite interval. Newton s second law is a differential principle, relating forces to the rate of change of either velocity or momentum.

43 A ball hits a wall (a) J = p p 2 1
44 A ball hits a wall (a) J = p p 2 1
45 A ball hits a wall (a) J = p p 2 1
46 A ball hits a wall (a) J = p p 2 1
47 A ball hits a wall
48 A ball hits a wall (b) F(t t ) 2 1 = p 2 p 1 = J
49 A ball hits a wall (b) F(t t ) 2 1 = p 2 p 1 = J
50 A ball hits a wall (b) F(t t ) 2 1 = p 2 p 1 = J
51 A ball hits a wall (b) F(t t ) 2 1 = p 2 p 1 = J
52 F av = J Δt Duration of an impact F(t t ) 2 1 = p 2 p 1 = J
53 F av = J Δt Duration of an impact The impulse momentum relationship depends on the duration of an impact. Golf ball hitting a steel plate at 150 mph shot at 70,000 fps F(t t ) 2 1 = p 2 p 1 = J

64 Recoil of a rifle Conservation of momentum in the x-direction gives:
65 Recoil of a rifle
66 Recoil of a rifle W tot = K 2 K 1 The Kinetic Energy gained is: F s, where s is the displacement. During the period of interaction between the bullet and the rifle, t, the bullet travelled much farther than the rifle, so the bullet acquires much greater kinetic energy than the rifle. Work is F s, so the bullet does more work than the rifle. The ratio of the two kinetic energies is 600:1, this is equal to the inverse ratio of their masses (get this from conservation of momentum). This always happens, if the rifle was powered by a stiff spring instead of an explosion we would have got the same result.

87 The ballistic pendulum A ballistic pendulum is a system for measuring the speed of a bullet. This can be demonstrated with a 4 4 block and a.22 caliber rifle. The bullet of mass mb, is fired into a wood block of mass mw, suspended like a pendulum and makes a completely inelastic collision with it. After the bullet s impact the block swings up to a maximum height, y. If we know the values of y, mb, and mw, what is the initial speed of the bullet vi?
