Total work of pseudo forces in center of...

Total work of pseudo forces in center of mass frame.
Show that total work done in center of mass frame on all the particles of a system by pseudo forces due to acceleration of mass center is zero.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let acceleration of mass centre relative to an inertial is `vec(a)_(c )`. Pseudo force on `I^th` particle of mass `m_i` in center of mass frame is `(-m_(i) vec(a)_(c ))`. Let displacement of Ith particle in a time interval is `Delta vec(r )_(i)` relative to the center of mass frame.
Total work of pseudo forces on all the particles in center of mass frame can now be expressed by the expression
`Sigma(-m_(i) vec(a)_(c )).Delta vec(r )_(i) = -vec(a)_(c).Sigma(m_iDelta vec(r )_(i))=-vec(a)_(c ).vec(0) = 0`

Separation of Motion of a system of particles into motion of the centre of mass and motion about the centre of mass : (a) Show p=p_(i).+m_(i)V where p_(i) is the momentum of the ith particle (of mass m_(i) ) and p_(i).=m_(i)v_(i). . Note v_(i). is the velocity of the i^(th) particle relative to the centre of mass Also, prove using the definition of the centre of mass Sigmap_(i).=0 (b) Show K=K.+(1)/(2)MV^(2) where K is the total kinetic energy of the system of particles, K. is the total kinetic energy of the system when the particle velocities are taken with respect to the centre of mass and (1)/(2)MV^(2) is the kinetic energy of the translation of the system as a whole (i.e. of the centre of mass motion of the system). The result has been used in Sec. 7.14). (c ) Show vecL=vecL.+vecRxxvec(MV) where vecL.=Sigmavec(r_(i)).xxvec(p_(i)). is the angular momentum of the system about the centre of mass with velocities taken relative to the centre of mass. Remember vec(r._(i))=vec(r_(i))-vecR , rest of the notation is the velcities taken relative to the centre of mass. Remember vec(r._(i))=vec(r_(i))-vecR rest of the notation is the standard notation used in the chapter. Note vecL , and vec(MR)xxvecV can be said to be angular momenta, respectively, about and of the centre of mass of the system of particles.

(Hint : Use the definition of centre of mass and Newton.s Thrid Law. Assume the internal forces between any two particles act along the line joining the particles.)
