| Centripetal | Centrifugal forces |
| It is a real force which is exerted on the body by the external agencies like gravitational force, tension in the string, normal force etc |
It is a pseudo force or fictitious force which cannot arise from gravitational force, tension. force, normal force etc |
| Acts in both inertial and non-inertial frames | Acts only in rotating frames (non-inertial frame) |
| It acts towards the axis of rotation or center of the circle in Circular motion |
It acts outwards from the axis of rotation or radially outwards from the center of the circular motion |
| \(\left| { F }_{ cp } \right| =m{ \omega }^{ 2 }r=\frac { { mv }^{ 2 } }{ r } \) | \(\left| { F }_{ cf } \right| =m{ \omega }^{ 2 }r=\frac { { mv }^{ 2 } }{ r } \) |
| Real force and has real effects | Pseudo force but has real effects |
| Origin of centripetal force is interaction between two objects |
Origin of centrifugal force is inertia. It does not arise from interaction. |
| In inertial frames centripetal force has to be included when free body diagrams are drawn |
In inertial frames there is no centrifugal force. In rotating frames, both centripetal and centrifugal force have to be included when free body diagrams are drawn. |
6.
Static friction: The opposing force that comes into play when one body tends to move over the surface of another, but the actual motion has yet not started is called static friction.
Limiting friction: If the applied force is increased the force of static friction also increases. If the applied force exceeds a certain (maximum) value, the body starts moving. This maximum value of static friction up to which body does not move is called limiting friction.
Kinetic or dynamic friction: If the applied force is increased further and sets the body in motion, the friction opposing the motion is called kinetic friction.
We can reduce friction
(1) By polishing.
(2) By lubrication.
(3) By proper selection of material.
(4) By streamlining the shape of the body.
(5) By using ball bearing.
7.
\(F_{cp}=\frac{mv^2}{r}\)
\(F_{cp}=\frac{\frac{1}{4} \times(2)^2}{3}=0.333 \ N\)
8.
v =\(\sqrt { (rg\quad tan\theta ) } =\sqrt { 20\times 9.8\times tan{ 15 }^{ 0 } } =\sqrt { 20\times 9.8\times 0.26 } \) = 7.1 ms-1
The safe speed for the car on this road is 7.1 ms-1
9.
In a leveled circular road, skidding mainly depends on the coefficient of static friction \({ \mu }_{ s }\). The coefficient of static friction depends on the nature of the surface which has a maximum limiting value. If the speed of car exceeds this safe speed, then it starts to skid outward but frictional force comes into effect and provides an additional centripetal force to prevent the outward skidding.
\(tan \ \theta> { \mu }_{ s }\)
When the tangent of the angle of banking is greater than the coefficient of friction, skidding occurs.
10.
(a) A frame of reference which is at rest or which is moving with a uniform velocity along a straight line is called an inertial frame of reference.
(b) In the inertial frame of reference Newton's laws of motion holds good.
Example: The lift at rest, lift moving (up or down) with constant velocity, car moving with constant velocity on a straight road.
11.
Limiting static/kinetic friction between any pair of dry unlubricated surfaces is independent of apparent area in contact.
Limiting static/kinetic friction between any pair of unlubricated surfaces depends on nature of material of the surfaces in contact.
Limiting static/kinetic friction between any pair of dry unlubricated surfaces is directly proportional to the normal reaction.
Static Friction: If Fs is static friction and R (N) is a normal reaction
Then
Fs ∝ R
∴ Fs = μsR
μs = coefficient of static friction.
∴ μs = \(\frac{F_s}{R}\)
The coefficient of static friction is defined as the ratio of the static friction to normal reaction
Kinetic friction: If Fs is static friction and R (N) is a normal reaction
Then
Fk ∝ R
∴ Fk = μsR
μk = coefficient of static friction.
∴ μk = \(\frac{F_k}{R}\)
The coefficient of kinetic friction is defined as the ratio of the kinetic friction to normal reaction
12.
Consider an inclined plane on which an object is placed as shown in the figure, Let the angle which this plane makes with the horizontal be ፀ. For small angle of ፀ, the object may not slide down. As ፀ is increased, for a particular value of ፀ, the object begins to slide down. This value is called angle of repose. Hence, the angle of repose is the angle of the inclined plane with the horizontal such that an object placed on it begins to slide.
