Chapter 9, Problem 30PQ, A particle moves in the xy plane (Fig. P9.30) from the origin to a point having coordinates x = 7.00 , example  1

FIGURE P9.30

In each case, the work is found using the integral of F · d r along the path (Equation 9.21).

W = r t r f F · d r = r t r f ( F x d x + F y d y + F z d z )

(a) The work done along path 1, we first need to integrate along d r = d x i ^ from (0,0) to (7,0) and then along d r = d y j ^ from (7,0) to (7,4):

W 1 = x = 0 ; y = 0 x = 7 ; y = 0 ( 3 y 2 i ^ + x j ^ ) · ( d x i ^ ) + x = 7 ; y = 0 x = 7 ; y = 4 ( 3 y 2 i ^ + x j ^ ) · ( d y j ^ )

Performing the dot products, we get

W 1 = x = 0 ; y = 0 x = 7 ; y = 0 3 y 2 d x + x = 7 ; y = 0 x = 7 ; y = 4 x d y

Along the first part of this path, y = 0 therefore the first integral equals zero. For the second integral, x is constant and can be pulled out of the integral, and we can evaluate dy.

W 1 = 0 + x = 7 ; y = 0 x = 7 ; y = 4 x d y = x y | x = 7 ; y = 0 x = 7 ; y = 4 = 28  J

(b) The work done along path 2 is along d r = d y j ^ from (0,0) to (0,4) and then along d r = d x i ^ from (0,4) to (7,4):

W 2 = x = 0 ; y = 0 x = 0 ; y = 4 ( 3 y 2 i ^ + x j ^ ) · ( d y j ^ ) + x = 0 ; y = 4 x = 7 ; y = 4 ( 3 y 2 i ^ + x j ^ ) · ( d y i ^ )

Performing the dot product, we get:

W 2 = x = 0 ; y = 0 x = 0 ; y = 4 x d y + x = 0 ; y = 4 x = 7 ; y = 4 3 y 2 d x

Along the first part of this path, x = 0. Therefore, the first integral equals zero. For the second integral, y is constant and can be pulled out of the integral, and we can evaluate dx.

W 2 = 0 + 3 y 2 x | x = 0 ; y = 4 x = 7 ; y = 4 = 336  J

(c) To find the work along the third path, we first write the expression for the work integral.

W = r t r f F · d r = r t r f ( F x d x + F y d y + F z d z ) W = r t r f ( 3 y 2 d x + x d y )     (1)

At first glance, this appears quite simple, but we can’t integrate x d y = x y like we might have above because the value of x changes as we vary y (i.e., x is a function of y.) [In parts (a) and (b), on a straight horizontal or vertical line, only x or y changes]. One approach is to parameterize both x and y as a function of another variable, say t, and write each integral in terms of only x or y. Constraining dr to be along the desired line, we can relate dx and dy:

tan θ = d y d x d y = tan θ d x    and    d x = d y tan θ     (2)

Now, use equation (2) in (1) to express each integral in terms of only one variable.

W = x = 0 ; y = 0 x = 7 ; y = 4 3 y 2 d x + x = 0 ; y = 0 x = 7 ; y = 4 x d y W = y = 0 y = 4 3 y 2 d y tan θ + x = 0 x = 7 x tan θ d x

We can determine the tangent of the angle, which is constant (the angle is the angle of the line with respect to the horizontal).

tan θ = 4.00 7.00 = 0.570

Insert the value of the tangent and solve the integrals.

W = 3 0.570 y 3 3 | y = 0 y = 4 + 0.570 x 2 2 | x = 0 x = 7 W = 112 + 14 = 126  J

(d) Since the work done is not “path-independent”, this is non-conservative force.

The work done on the particle by the force F if it moves along the path 1.

Answer to Problem 30PQ

The work done on the particle by the force F if it moves along the path 1 is 28J_.

Explanation of Solution

The path 1 followed by the particle is given in Figure P9.30. Given that the coordinate of the final position of the particle is (7.00,4.00) and the force is F=3y2i^+xj^.

Write the expression for the work done by a force.

  W=rirfFdr                                                                                                   (I)

Here, W is the work done, rf is the final position, ri is the initial position, and dr is the elemental path.

The path 1 of the particle consist of two parts. Motion from (0,0) to (7,0) and (7,0) to (7,4). Thus, the integration has to be performed along dr=dxi^ from (0,0) to (7,0) and then along dr=dyj^ from (7,0) to (7,4).

Use the force vector along with the limits of integration and perform the integration (represent the work done along path 1 as W1).

  W1=x=0;y=0x=7;y=0(3y2i^+xj^)·(dxi^)+x=7;y=0x=7;y=4(3y2i^+xj^)·(dyj^)                                        (II)

Perform the dot product to reduce the integral (II).

  W1=x=0;y=0x=7;y=03y2dx+x=7;y=0x=7;y=4xdy                                                                        (III)

Along the first part of the path 1, y=0, and hence the first integral equals zero. For the second integral, x is constant and can be pulled out of the integral, and dy can be evaluated.

  W1=0+x=7;y=0x=7;y=4xdy=xy|x=7;y=0x=7;y=4=280=28J

Conclusion:

Therefore, the work done on the particle by the force F if it moves along the path 1 is 28J_.

To determine

The work done on the particle by the force F if it moves along the path 2.

Answer to Problem 30PQ

The work done on the particle by the force F if it moves along the path 2 is 336J_.

Explanation of Solution

The path 2 followed by the particle is given in Figure P9.30. Given that the coordinate of the final position of the particle is (7.00,4.00) and the force is F=3y2i^+xj^.

Equation (I) gives the expression for the work done by a force.

  W=rirfFdr

The path 2 of the particle consist of two parts. Motion from (0,0) to (0,4) and (0,4) to (7,4). Thus, the integration has to be performed along dr=dyj^ from (0,0) to (0,4) and then along dr=dxi^ from (0,4) to (7,4).

Use the force vector along with the limits of integration and perform the integration (represent the work done along path 2 as W2).

  W2=x=0;y=0x=0;y=4(3y2i^+xj^)·(dyj^)+x=0;y=4x=7;y=4(3y2i^+xj^)·(dxi^)                                     (IV)

Perform the dot product to reduce the integral (IV).

  W2=x=0;y=0x=0;y=4xdy+x=0;y=4x=7;y=43y2dx                                                                         (V)

Along the first part of the path 2, x=0, and hence the first integral equals zero. For the second integral, y is constant and can be pulled out of the integral, and dx can be evaluated.

  W2=0+x=0;y=4x=7;y=43y2dx=3y2x|x=0;y=4x=7;y=4=3360=336J

Conclusion:

Therefore, the work done on the particle by the force F if it moves along the path 2 is 336J_.

To determine

The work done on the particle by the force F if it moves along the path 3.

Answer to Problem 30PQ

The work done on the particle by the force F if it moves along the path 3 is 126J_.

Explanation of Solution

The path 3 followed by the particle is given in Figure P9.30. Given that the coordinate of the final position of the particle is (7.00,4.00) and the force is F=3y2i^+xj^.

Equation (I) gives the expression for the work done by a force.

  W=rirfFdr

Write equation (I) in terms of x, y, and z components.

  W=rirf(Fxdx+Fydy+Fzdz)                                                                               (VI)

Use the x and y components of the given force in the integral (VI). Since the motion is confined in xy plane, there is no z component in the integral.

  W=rirf(3y2dx+xdy)                                                                                        (VII)

The path 3 of the particle starts from (0,0) and ends at (7,4). Thus, the integral (VII) can be written as (represent the work done along path 3 as W3),

  W3=x=0;y=0x=7;y=43y2dx+x=0;y=0x=7;y=4xdy                                                                         (VIII)

Here, both x and y coordinates change and hence direct integration cannot be performed. Let us consider the angle θ that the vector of path 3 make with the x axis as shown in Figure 1.

  W3=x=0;y=0x=7;y=43y2dytanθ+x=0;y=0x=7;y=4xtanθdx                                                          (XII)

Compute tanθ from the paths shown in Figure P9.30.

  tanθ=4.007.00=0.570                                                                                             (XIII)

Use equation (XIII) in (XII) and perform the integral.

  W3=y=0y=430.570y2dy+x=0x=70.570xdx=30.570y33|y=0y=4+0.570x22|x=0x=7=112+14=126J

Conclusion:

Therefore, the work done on the particle by the force F if it moves along the path 3 is 126J_.

Expert Solution

To determine

Whether the force F is conservative or non-conservative.

Answer to Problem 30PQ

The force F is non-conservative in nature.

Explanation of Solution

From part (a), (b) and (c) it is found that the work done by the force F on moving the particle from (0,0) to (7,4) along different path is different. By the definition of conservative forces, the work done by a conservative force is path independent. However, here the work done by the force F is path dependent and hence it is a non-conservative force.

Conclusion:

Therefore, the force F is non-conservative in nature.
