KEY CONCEPT
1. A body moving with constant speed in a circular path is continuously accelerated towards the centre of
rotation. The magnitude of this normal acceleration is given by
v2
an = = ω2 r
r
where v is the constant speed (v = ωr) and
r is the radius of the circular path
dv
Tangential acceleration : at = , a= a 2t + a 2n
dt
v2
2. Radius of curvature : r =
an
3. According to Newton’s second law, a body moving in a circular path with constant speed must be acted
upon by an unbalanced force which is always directed towards the centre. This necessary unbalanced
force is called the centripetal force.
mv 2
F= = mω2r
r
4. Centrifugal force is a pseudo force which is observed by an observer in rotating frame.
r 2 r
Fcf = mωframe r
Work (W) :
The work W done by a constant force F when its point of application
undergoes a displacement s is defined as
W = F.s = Fs cos θ
where θ is the angle between F and s.Work is a scalar quantity and its
SI units is N-m or joule (J).
Note: Only the component (F cos θ) of the force F which is along the displacement contributes to the work
done.
If F = Fx î + Fy ĵ + Fz k̂ and s = ∆x î + ∆yĵ + ∆zk̂
r r
then W = F ·s = Fx∆x + Fy∆y + Fz ∆ z
5. Work done by a Variable Force : When the magnitude and direction of a force varies with position,
The work done by such a force for an infinitesimal displacement ds is given by
r
dW = F ·d rs
In terms of rectangular components,

XB YB ZB
WAB = ∫ Fx dx + ∫ Fydy + ∫ Fzdz

6. Work Done by a Spring Force : The work done by the spring force for a displacement from xi to xf is
given by

7. Work Energy theorem :
Work done on a body can produce a change in its kinetic energy. Work is required to produce motion
and it is also required to destroy motion.
W = ∆K = Kf – Ki
8. Conservative Force : The force which does work in complete independence of the path followed the
body is called a conservative force. The gravitational force, spring force and electrostatic force are the
examples of conservative forces.
9. Non-Conservative Force : The work done by a non-conservative force not only depends on the initial
and final positions but also on the path followed. The common examples of such forces
are : frictional force and drag force of fluids.
10. Potential Energy : The potential energy is defined only for conservative forces.
