Work done=F cos s
= angle of inclination of force with the
direction of motion
s=displacement of force from A to B

F s = ( W/g ) v /2 ]
u
F s = (W/2g) [v2-u2]
Therefore work done by a system of forces acting on a body
while causing a displacement is equal to the change in
kinetic energy of the body during the displacement.

Work done by a spring
s
F=k(s)
The force required to cause unit deformation of the spring is called
the spring modulus denoted by the symbol k. The force required to
deform
a spring is given by F= ks. Work done by the force on a
spring is the product of the average force and the deformation s.
W= -ks2/2. [ The negative sign indicates that whenever spring is
deformed the force of spring is in the opposite direction of deformation.]

IMPULSE MOMENTUM
Impulse-momentum relationship
Law of Conservation of
momentum
The law of conservation of momentum may be
stated as , momentum is conserved in a system in
which resultant force is zero. In other words, in a
system if the resultant is zero, Initial momentum is equal
to Final momentum
m1u1+m2u2 = m1v1+m2v2

7. A locomotive of weight 500kN pulls a train of weight of 2500kN.
The tractive resistance, due to friction is 10N/kN. The train can go with
a maximum speed of 27kmph on a grade of 1in100. Determine (a)
Power of the locomotive. (b) Maximum speed it can attain on a straight
level track with the tractive resistance remaining same. [Answer (a)
Power= 450kN (b) v=15m/s]
8.A wagon weighing 400kN starts from rest, runs 30m down a 1%
grade & strikes a post. If the rolling resistance of the track is 5N/kN,
find the velocity of the wagon when it strikes the post.
If the impact is to be cushioned by means of one bumper string, which
compresses 1mm per 20 kN weight, determine how much the bumper
spring will be compressed. [Answer v=1.4m/s, x=63.21mm]
