Mathematical formulation of second law of motion. Explain. |
|
Answer» It states that rate of change in momentum is equals to the applied force ..................as we know that force is equals to F=M×a.........(1)(here accelaratiin is defined as a=v-u/t) so putting the value of a in the equ. 1 we have .........F=M(v-u)/t or (Mv-Mu)/t here Mv and Mu are the final and initial momentum of the body so now we have F=(Pf-Pi)/t ....wow this is the newtons second law in mathematical form derived by the definition of force Let mass of an moving object = mLet the velocity of the object changes from \'u\' ; to \'v\' in the interval of time \'t\'This means, Initial velocity of the object = u.Final velocity of the object = vWe know that momentum (p) = Mass x velocityTherefore,Momentum (p) of the object at its initial velocity u = m × u = muMomentum (p) of the object at its final velocity v = m × v = mvThe change in momentum = mv − muRate of change of momentum = (mv−mu)/ t |
