Explore the second part of the appendix one series, covering energy and work, momentum, and simple harmonic motion.
Explore energy and work basics, including kinetic energy, gravitational and spring potential energy, and mechanical energy, plus work, power, and energy conversion concepts.
Explore the conservation of energy, linking the work-energy theorem to kinetic and gravitational potential energy, and distinguish conservative from non-conservative forces like friction.
Explore momentum as mass times velocity, the impulse–momentum relation, and how force and time create impulses, with elastic and inelastic collisions, kinetic energy may vary, and momentum conserved.
Practice problems on impulse and momentum explore impulse-momentum, momentum conservation, and collision types, including elastic and perfectly inelastic collisions, with force-time analysis.
Explore simple harmonic motion in springs and pendulums, covering frequency, period, equilibrium, and key unit six concepts.
Analyze a 1.8 kg, 2.3 m simple pendulum at 30 degrees. Derive horizontal tension from force balance and use energy conservation to find bottom speed.
Practice mcqs on simple harmonic motion, applying energy conservation to relate spring potential energy and kinetic energy and determine velocity at equilibrium.
