A curved surface is shown in figure. The portion BCD is free of friction. There are three spherical balls of identical radii and masses. Balls are released from rest one by one from A which is at a slightly greater height than C.
With the surface AB, ball 1 has large enough friction to cause rolling down without slipping; ball 2 has a small friction and ball 3 has a negligible friction.
- For which balls is total mechanical energy conserved?
- Which ball (s) can reach D?
- For balls which do not reach D, which of the balls can reach back A?
उत्तर
- A ball 1 is rolling down without slipping there is no dissipation of energy hence, total mechanical energy is conserved. Bail 3 is having negligible friction hence, there is no loss of energy.
- Ball 1 acquires rotational energy, ball 2 loses energy by friction. They cannot cross at C. Ball 3 can cross over.
- Ball 1 and 2 turn back before reaching C. Because of loss of energy, ball 2 cannot reach back to A. Ball 1 has a rotational motion in the “wrong” sense when it reaches B. It cannot roll back to A, because of kinetic friction.

The potential energy function for a particle executing linear simple harmonic motion is given by V(x) =`(kx^2)/2`, where k is the force constant of the oscillator. For k = 0.5 N m–1, the graph of V(x) versus x is shown in the figure. Show that a particle of total energy 1 J moving under this potential must ‘turn back’ when it reaches x = ± 2 m.
When a conservative force does positive work on a body, the potential energy of the body ______.
