Motion in Two Dimension, , 125, , Chapter, , 3, , Motion In Two Dimension, The motion of an object is called two dimensional, if two of the, three co-ordinates required to specify the position of the object in space,, change w.r.t time., , (i) A bomb released from an aeroplane in level flight, , In such a motion, the object moves in a plane. For example, a, billiard ball moving over the billiard table, an insect crawling over the, floor of a room, earth revolving around the sun etc., , (iv) A Javelin thrown by an athlete, , (ii) A bullet fired from a gun, (iii) An arrow released from bow, , Assumptions of Projectile Motion, , Two special cases of motion in two dimension are, , (1) There is no resistance due to air., , 1. Projectile motion, , (2) The effect due to curvature of earth is negligible., , 2. Circular motion, , (3) The effect due to rotation of earth is negligible., , Introduction of Projectile Motion, A hunter aims his gun and fires a bullet directly towards a, monkey sitting on a distant tree. If the monkey remains in his position,, he will be safe but at the instant the bullet leaves the barrel of gun, if, the monkey drops from the tree, the bullet will hit the monkey because, the bullet will not follow the linear path., , (4) For all points of the trajectory, the acceleration due to gravity ‘ g’, is constant in magnitude and direction., , Principle of Physical Independence of Motions, (1) The motion of a projectile is a two-dimensional motion. So, it can, be discussed in two parts. Horizontal motion and vertical motion. These two, motions take place independent of each other. This is called the principle of, physical independence of motions., (2) The velocity of the particle can be resolved into two mutually, perpendicular components. Horizontal component and vertical component., (3) The horizontal component remains unchanged throughout the, flight. The force of gravity continuously affects the vertical component., (4) The horizontal motion is a uniform motion and the vertical motion is, a uniformly accelerated or retarded motion., , Types of Projectile Motion, The path of motion of a bullet will be parabolic and this motion of, bullet is defined as projectile motion., Fig : 3.1, , (1) Oblique projectile motion, (2) Horizontal projectile motion, (3) Projectile motion on an inclined plane, , If the force acting on a particle is oblique with initial velocity then the, motion of particle is called projectile motion., , Projectile, , X, , Y, , A body which is in flight through the atmosphere under the effect of, gravity alone and is not being propelled by any fuel is called projectile., , Example:, , , , X, Y, Y, X, ,

Velocity, and KE are maximum at the point, of projection while minimum (but not zero) at highest point., (1) Equation of trajectory : A projectile is thrown with velocity u at, an angle with the horizontal.

Hence, angular velocity , t, T, = 1/n), 2, 2n, T, , If two particles are moving on same circle or different coplanar, concentric circles in same direction with different uniform angular speeds, and respectively, the angular velocity of B relative to A will be, A, , Lt, , t 0, , d 2, d , 2, , t, dt, dt, , (ii) Units : rad. s, , –2, , (iii) Dimension : [M L T ], 0, , 0, , –2, , (iv) Relation between linear acceleration and angular acceleration, a r, , (v) For uniform circular motion since is constant so, d, , 0, dt, , (vi) For non-uniform circular motion 0, , –1, , Relation between time period and frequency, : If n is the frequency of revolution of an object in circular motion, then the, object completes n revolutions in 1 second.

When t decreases, also decreases. Due to which , becomes more and more perpendicular to . When t 0, , becomes perpendicular to the velocity vector. As the velocity vector of the, particle at an instant acts along the tangent to the circular path, therefore, , and hence the centripetal acceleration vector acts along the radius of, the circular path at that point and is directed towards the centre of the, circular path., , Centripetal force, According to Newton's first law of motion, whenever a body moves, in a straight line with uniform velocity, no force is required to maintain this, velocity. But when a body moves along a circular path with uniform speed,, its direction changes continuously i.e. velocity keeps on changing on account
Page 9 :
Motion in Two Dimension, of a change in direction. According to Newton's second law of motion, a, change in the direction of motion of the body can take place only if some, external force acts on the body., Due to inertia, at every point of the circular path; the body tends to, move along the tangent to the circular path, v, at that point (in figure). Since every body has, v, directional inertia, a velocity cannot change, by itself and as such we have to apply a force., But this force should be such that it changes, F, F, F, the direction of velocity and not its, F, magnitude. This is possible only if the force, acts perpendicular to the direction of velocity., Because the velocity is along the tangent, this v, v, force must be along the radius (because the, Fig : 3.30, radius of a circle at any point is perpendicular, to the tangent at that point). Further, as this force is to move the body in a, circular path, it must acts towards the centre. This centre-seeking force is, called the centripetal force., Hence, centripetal force is that force which is required to move a, body in a circular path with uniform speed. The force acts on the body, along the radius and towards centre., , line motion but to observer B it appears that a real force has actually acted, on the body and is responsible for throwing the body radially out-wards., This imaginary force is given a name to explain the effects of inertia to the, observer who is sharing the circular motion of the body. This inertial force, is called centrifugal force. Thus centrifugal force is a fictitious force which, has significance only in a rotating frame of reference., , Work Done by Centripetal Force, The work done by centripetal force is, always zero as it is perpendicular to velocity and, hence instantaneous displacement., , mv 2, m 4 2 r, m 2 r m 4 2 n 2 r , r, T2, , 90o, , Work done = Increment in kinetic energy, of revolving body, , F, , Work done = 0, Also W = F.

When, a body is rotating in a circular path and the centripetal force vanishes, the, body would leave the circular path. To an observer A who is not sharing the, motion along the circular path, the body appears to fly off tangentially at, the point of release. To another observer B, who is sharing the motion along, the circular path (i.e., the observer B is also rotating with the body with the, same velocity), the body appears to be stationary before it is released. When, the body is released, it appears to B, as if it has been thrown off along the, radius away from the centre by some force. In reality no force is actually, seen to act on the body. In absence of any real force the body tends to, continue its motion in a straight line due to its inertia. The observer A, easily relates this events to be due to inertia but since the inertia of both, the observer B and the body is same, the observer B can not relate the, above happening to inertia. When the centripetal force ceases to act on the, body, the body leaves its circular path and continues to move in its straight-, , This is the maximum speed by which vehicle can take a turn on a, circular path of radius r, where coefficient of friction between the road and, tyre is ., , Skidding of Object on A Rotating Platform, On a rotating platform, to avoid the skidding of an object (mass m), placed at a distance r from axis of rotation, the centripetal force should be, provided by force of friction., Centripetal force Force of friction, , m r mg, 2, , max (g / r) ,, Hence maximum angular velocity of rotation of the platform is, (g / r) , so that object will not skid on it., , Bending of A Cyclist
