Example 13.7
A particle rotates counterclockwise in a circle of radius 3.00m with a constant angular
speed of 8.00 rad/s. At t=0, the particle has an x coordinate of 2.00m and is moving to
the right. A) Determine the x coordinate as a function of time.
Since the radius is 3.00m, the amplitude of oscillation in x direction is 3.00m. And the
angular frequency is 8.00rad/s. Therefore the equation of motion in x direction is

Damped Oscillation
More realistic oscillation where an oscillating object loses its mechanical
energy in time by a retarding force such as friction or air resistance.
F
Let’s consider a system whose retarding force
is air resistance R=-bv (b is called damping
coefficient) and restoration force is -kx

differential equation is

This equation of motion tells us that when the retarding force is much smaller than restoration
force, the system oscillates but the amplitude decreases, and ultimately, the oscillation stops.

More on Damped Oscillation
The motion is called Underdamped when the magnitude of
the maximum retarding force Rmax = bvmax <kA
How do you think the damping motion would change as
retarding force changes?
 bvmax  kA
As the retarding force becomes larger, the amplitude reduces
more rapidly, eventually stopping at its equilibrium position
Under what condition this system
does not oscillate?
The system is Critically damped

Once released from non-equilibrium position, the object

Newton’s Law of Universal Gravitation
People have been very curious about the stars in the sky, making
observations for a long time. But the data people collected have not been
explained until Newton has discovered the law of gravitation.
Every particle in the Universe attracts every other particle with a
force that is directly proportional to the product of their masses and
inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
How would you write this
principle mathematically?
G is the universal gravitational
constant, and its value is
Fg 

r122
With G
G  6.673 10
11
Fg  G
Unit?
m1m2
r122
N  m 2 / kg 2
This constant is not given by the theory but must be measured by experiment.
This form of forces is known as an inverse-square law, because the magnitude of the
force is inversely proportional to the square of the distances between the objects.

Two objects exert gravitational force on each other

write the force m2 experiences as
What do you think the
negative sign mean?
F 12
m1m2
 G 2 r̂12
r
It means that the force exerted on the particle 2 by
particle 1 is attractive force, pulling #2 toward #1.
Gravitational force is a field force: Forces act on object without physical contact
between the objects at all times, independent of medium between them.
How do you think the
The gravitational force exerted by a finite size,
gravitational force on the
spherically symmetric mass distribution on a particle
outside the distribution is the same as if the entire mass surface of the earth look?

particle of mass m on the surface of

What do these tell us about the gravitational acceleration?
•The gravitational acceleration is independent of the mass of the object
•The gravitational acceleration decreases as the altitude increases
•If the distance from the surface of the Earth gets infinitely large, the weight of the
object approaches 0.

The international space station is designed to operate at an altitude of 350km. When
completed, it will have a weight (measured on the surface of the Earth) of 4.22x106N.

Kepler’s Laws & Ellipse
a

c
F2
Ellipses have two different axis, major (long) and
minor (short) axis, and two focal points, F1 & F2
a is the length of a semi-major axis
b is the length of a semi-minor axis
Kepler lived in Germany and discovered the law’s governing planets’
movement some 70 years before Newton, by analyzing data.
•All planets move in elliptical orbits with the Sun at one focal point.
•The radius vector drawn from the Sun to a planet sweeps out equal
area in equal time intervals. (Angular momentum conservation)
•The square of the orbital period of any planet is proportional to the
cube of the semi-major axis of the elliptical orbit.
Newton’s laws explain the cause of the above laws. Kepler’s third law is
the direct consequence of law of gravitation being inverse square law.

Kepler’s Second Law and Angular Momentum Conservation
Consider a planet of mass Mp moving around the Sun in an elliptical orbit.

Since the gravitational force acting on the planet is
A always toward radial direction, it is a central force
dr
B Therefore the torque acting on the planet by this
force is always 0.
  r  F  r  Frˆ  0
Since torque is the time rate change of angular
momentum L, the angular momentum is constant.

L  const
Because the gravitational force exerted on a

planet by the Sun results in no torque, the
angular momentum L of the planet is constant.
Since the area swept by the

This is Keper’s second law which states that the radius vector from the Sun
to a planet sweeps our equal areas in equal time intervals.
