Chapter ThreeKinetics of particles
Kinetics of particles• It is the study of the relations existing between
the forces acting on body, the mass of the body,and the motion of the body.
• It is the study of the relation betweenunbalanced forces and the resulting motion.
• Newton ’s first law and third law are sufficient
for studying bodies at rest (statics) or bodies in
motion with no acceleration.
• When a body accelerates ( change in velocity
magnitude or direction) Newton ’s second law is
required to relate the motion of the body to the
forces acting on it.
Force, mass and acceleration• Newton ’s Second Law: If the resultant force
acting on a particle is not zero the particle willhave an acceleration proportional to themagnitude of resultant and in the direction of theresultant.
• The basic relation between force and
acceleration is found in Newton's second law of
motion and its verification is entirely
experimental.
• Consider a particle subjected to constant forces
• We conclude that the constant is a measure of
some property of the particle that does not
change.

• This property is the inertia of the particle which is its resistance to rate of change of velocity.
• The mass m is used as a quantitative measure of inertia, and therefore the experimental relation becomes,
F=ma
• This relation provides a complete formulation of Newton's second law; it expresses not only that the magnitude F and a areproportional but also that the vector F and a have the same direction.
Equation of motion and solution of problems• When a particle of mass m acted upon by several forces. The
Newton’s second law can be expressed by the equation
• To determine the acceleration we must use the analysis used inkinematics, i.e
• Rectilinear motion
• Curvilinear motion
∑ = maF
Rectilinear Motion• If we choose the x-direction, as the direction
of the rectilinear motion of a particle of mass m, the acceleration in the y and z direction will be zero, i.e

Examples
Example 1• Block A has a mass of 30kg and block B has a mass of
15kg. The coefficient of friction between all plane
surfaces of contact are and .
Knowing that Ѳ=300 and that the magnitude of the
force P applied to block A is 250N, determine
a) The acceleration of block A ,and
b) The tension in the cord
15.0=sµ 10.0=kµ
Example 2• A small vehicle enters the top A of the circular path with a
horizontal velocity vo and gathers speed as it moves down the path.
• Determine an expression for the angle β to the position where thevehicle leaves the path and becomes a projectile. Evaluate yourexpression for vo=0. Neglect friction and treat the vehicle as aparticle
Example 3• The slotted arm revolves in the horizontal about the fixed vertical axis
through point O. the 2 Kg slider C is drawn towards O at the constant
rate of 50mm/s by pulling the cord S. At the instant for which
r=225mm, the arm has a counterclockwise angular velocity ω=6rad/s
and is slowing down at the rate of 2rad/s2 .for this instant determine
the tension T in the cord and the magnitude N of the force exerted on
the slider by the sides of the smooth radial slot. Indicate which side, A
or B, of the slot contacts the slider. (problem 3/69)
work and kinetic energy
• The method of work and energy directly relates force, mass,
velocity, and displacement.
• We apply this method:
When intervals of motion are involved where the change in
velocity or the corresponding displacement of the particle is
required.
• Integration of the forces with respect to the displacement
of the particle leads to the equation of work and energy.

Advantages and disadvantages of work and energy method
• Advantage; 1. No need to calculate values between A1 and
A2. Only final stages are counted 2. All scalars so can be
added easily 3. Forces that do no work are ignored
• Disadvantage; can not determine accelerations, can not
determine accelerations and forces that do no work
Example 1• For the slider collar shown in the figure, if m=0.5kg,
b=0.8m, and h=1.5m, and if the velocity of the collar as itstrikes the base B is 4.70m/s after the release of thecollar from rest, calculate the work Q of friction. Whathappens to the energy that is lost?
• The 0.8kg collar slides with negligible frictionon the fixed rod in the vertical plane. If thecollar starts from rest at A under the action of8N horizontal force, calculate its velocity v asit hits the stop at B.
Example 2
• The 6kg cylindrical collar is released from restin the position shown and drops onto the spring.Calculate the velocity v of the cylinder whenthe spring has been compressed 50mm.
Example 3
• The two springs, each of stiffness k=1.2KN/m, are if equallength and un-deformed when θ=0. If the mechanism isreleased from rest in the position θ=20, determine itsangular velocity θ’ when θ=0. the mass m of each sphere is3kg. Treat the sphere as particles and neglect the massesof the light rods and springs.

Impulse and momentum
• Work and energy is obtained by integrating theequation of F=ma with respect to thedisplacement of the particle.
• Impulse and momentum can be generated byintegrating the equation of motion (F=ma) withrespect to time.
Linear impulse and momentum• Consider a particle of a mass m which
is subjected to several forces in space.
• The product of the mass & the velocityis defined as the linear momentum.

Conservation of linear momentum• If the resultant force on a particle is zero
during an interval of time, its linear momentumG remains constant. In this case the linearmomentum of a particle is said to be conserved.

Impact
Impact• Refers to the collision b/n two bodies
and is characterized by the generation
of relatively large contact forces that
act over a very short interval of time.
Direct central impact• Consider the collinear motion of two spheres of masses m1
and m2 travelling with velocities V1 & V2. If V1 is greaterthan V2, collision occurs with the contact forces directedalong the line of centers.
• In as much as the contact forces are equal& opposite during impact; the linearmomentum of the system remainsunchanged.
'' 22112211 vmvmvmvm +=+
• For given masses & initial conditions, the momentumequation contains two unknowns, v1’ & v2’, an additionalrelationship is required.
• The relationship must reflect the capacity of thecontacting bodies to recover from the impact & can beexpressed by the ratio e of the magnitude of therestoration impulse to the magnitude of the deformationimpulse. This ratio is called the coefficient of restitution.
• Fr – contact force during restoration period
• Fd – contact force during deformation period

• According to classical theory of impact, the value
e=1 means that the capacity of the two particles to
recover equal their tendency to deform.
• The value e=0, on the other hand describes
inelastic or plastic impact where the particles cling
together after collision & the loss of energy is a
maximum.
b) Oblique central impact• Here the initial and final velocities are not parallel.
• The spherical particles of mass m1 & m2 have initialvelocities v1 & v2 in the same plane & approach each otheron a collision course.
• The direction of the velocity vector are measured fromthe direction tangent to the contacting surfaces.
