Work done on a body by a constant force is defined as the product of magnitude of displacement and the
component of force in the direction of displacement.

“Work can also be defined as the dot product of force and displacement”.
Unit:
Work is scalar quantity.SI unit of work is Nm called joule.
Definition of joule:
When one newton force acts on the body and the body covers a distance of one meter in the direction of
force, the work done is said to be one joule.
Dimension of work: If θ<90, work done is positive.
The dimension of work is [ML2 T-2] If 90<θ≤180, work done is
negative.
Graphical representation of work: If θ=90, no work is done.
Graphically, the area under the force displacement curve If θ=0,work done is maximum.

Define energy? Give two types of mechanical energy.
ENERGY:
Capacity of doing work is known as energy.
There are two basic forms of energy:
Kinetic energy
Potential energy
Kinetic Energy:
The energy possessed by a body due to its motion is known as kinetic energy.
It depends upon the mass and velocity of the body in accordance with the following formula:
1
K.E mv 2
2
Potential Energy:
The energy possessed by a body due to its change in position in a field of force or the energy possessed
by a body due to its constrained state is known as its potential energy.
The potential energy of the body in the gravitational field near the surface of the earth at a height “h” is:
P.E = mgh

It depends on the mass of the body and the height.
State and prove Work-Energy principle?
Work-Energy principle:
It states work done on an object appears to be change in its energy.
OR
When a force is applied on a body then work done on the body is equal to change in its kinetic energy or
change in its P.E or change in both K.E and P.E.
Consider a body is moving on a smooth surface. Let a constant force F acts on a body over a displacement
“d” which changes its velocity. Work done on body from A to B is:

in kinetic energy which is known as work-energy principle. The
above equation can be used to determine the work done even when
the force and displacement are not known to us.
d) Explain the Interconversion of kinetic energy and potential energy in gravitational field.
Conclusion:
If a body falls at height h1, then at height h2 above the surface of earth

Where v1 and v2 are the velocities at height h1 and h2 respectively
P.E and K.E are inter-convertible but the total energy remains unchanged.
In the presence of friction,
Loss in P.E= gain in K.E + work done against friction

i.e. mgh mv 2 fh

Conservation of Energy:
Energy cannot be destroyed. It can be transformed from one form to another, but the total amount of
energy remains conserved.
Conservation of Mechanical Energy:
The K.E and P.E are the different forms of mechanical energy. The total mechanical energy of the body is
equal to the sum of K.E and P.E.

STARS ENTRY TEST SERIES MDCAT 44
P.E may change into K.E. Similarly, the K.E may also be change into P.E, but total energy remains
constant.
Mathematically, total energy=P.E + K.E = constant
This is the special case of conservation of energy.
In daily life we observe many energy changes from one form to another. At last all energy transfers result
in a heating of the environment and energy is lost in the form of heat which is useless. So, useful energy
is decreasing though total energy is conserved. That is why we need new sources of energies.

Power is a scalar quantity. SI unit of power is joule/second called watt.
Dimensions of power are [ML2T-3]
Definition of Watt:
The power is said to be one watt if one joule of work is done in one second.
Commercial unit of electrical energy:
The commercial unit of electrical energy is kilowatt-hour.
Kilowatt-hour:
Kilowatt-hour is the work done in one hour by an agency whose power is one kilowatt.
So, 1kWh = 1000W × 3600 sec =1000 J/sec × 3600 sec
= 3600000 J
1 kWh = 3.6×106 J

r
v2
= r2 and a =
r
Define centripetal force. Drive its relation:
Definition:
The force needed to bend the normally straight path of the particle into a circular path is called the
centripetal force.
When a body moves in a circle with constant speed, the force required to keep the body in the
circular path is called centripetal force. It is directed towards the center of circle.
Example:
When a stone is whirled in a horizontal circle by means of a string, the tension T provides the
necessary centripetal force.
Expression:
Consider a body of mass “m” moving with constant speed v around a circle of radius r. As the body
moves along the circumference, the velocity of the body changes its direction but not its magnitude.

What are geostationary orbits, calculate the radius measured from the centre of the earth for a
geostationary satellite.
Geostationary orbit is such an orbit in which an artificial satellite remains at rest with respect to earth, such
type of satellite is called geostationary satellite, for such satellite, the time taken by it to revolve around the
earth is same as the time taken by the earth to rotate about its own axis for one rotation. These satellite are
very useful for worldwide communication, weather observations, navigation and other military uses. Since
the speed of satellite in circular orbit is given by:
GM
