    Thank you so much!! you explain everything slowly and clearly and take your time to derive and make it clear to the students! which some professors forget and just derive everything in their head and skip steps constantly! Even my own text book only gives you a brief description of the math but no reason WHY they're using those numbers or derivations instead. Which made it completely confusing even while following the book! Thank you so much! you are saving my semester!!! Please keep making videos!!!

    Thank you for all of your videos. These videos make more since than what my professor teaches. The examples with real world application retains much better than my professors way of going through a variable riddled proof and ending class with everyone stumped.

    Why is it static friction instead of kinetic friction? Isn't the car in motion?

    • @yoprofmatt
      @yoprofmatt  5 лет назад +5

      Yes, but rolling tires = static friction, skidding tires = kinetic friction. You have to consider where the rubber meets the road.

    • @carultch
      @carultch 5 лет назад +1

      The bottom surface of the tires are "locally stationary" relative to the road, when the wheels are rolling. It is known in dynamics as the instantaneous center of zero velocity or ICV. The bottom point of contact is stationary, while the top point on the tires has a velocity twice the car's velocity. That is why the static friction (traction) coefficient matters for vehicles in motion, rather than the kinetic friction coefficient. The kinetic friction coefficient matters for your brake pads.
      Keeping your tires in static friction with the road is important, because otherwise skidding sideways would be no different than skidding forward. A steered tire "tells" the road to exert static friction forces that act sideways. A powered tire "tells" the road to exert a forward friction force. A braked tire "tells" the road to exert a backwards friction force. The friction force would only act directly opposite your velocity, if it were only kinetic friction. That's what happens when brakes lock up, and you loose your ability to steer. Thanks to ABS brake systems that pump the brakes for you, modern cars mitigate this risk.

    It should be also applicable to an electron revolving around a
    neutron in an atom

    • @carultch
      @carultch 5 лет назад

      At one point that was the model of the atom (the Bohr model), but it is no longer an accepted model of the atom due to not being consistent with experimental results. Other quantum mechanical effects come in to play.

    why we take friction perpendicular to the car towards left????

    • @yoprofmatt
      @yoprofmatt  6 лет назад +6

      Something has to hold the car in its circle. The only thing between the tires and the ground is friction. Since the car "wants" to go straight, you turn the wheels to make it go left. This means the rubber molecules are pushing to the right on the asphalt. The asphalt then pushes back to the left on the rubber (Newton's 3rd). This is the static friction force that keeps the car in its circle. (Obviously, if we drive the car in a circle around to the right, then the static friction force will point to the right.)

    Like around a 25m radius, we can ever get a speed of 100 kmph... and I usually do it... may you please explain the reason

    • @IppokratisPoimenidis
      @IppokratisPoimenidis 6 лет назад +1

      YOU GOT A GREATER FRICTION (TIRES ON DRY ASPHALT)

    • @hozwayy2594
      @hozwayy2594 3 года назад

      they were just taking assumptions in the video, since we have no exact clue whether 45mph would be the max speed you could go in a 25m radius road. and it would make sense that if you have a curved road with a higher radius, you could go a lot faster and vice versa

  • @gardenmenuuu
    @gardenmenuuu 3 года назад

    sir I have a question silly question but yet please reply...If a body is moving in a circle and I apply torque to it,won't it contribute to the centripetal force too?Because the velocity's magnitude is increasing ?

    • @carultch
      @carultch 3 года назад +2

      It turns out that only the existing velocity magnitude contributes to the centripetal acceleration. The torque, and correspondingly linear force that causes the torque, will contribute to its tangential acceleration instead. That is, the acceleration component that is parallel to its velocity, which results in a change in speed. After some time, when the tangential acceleration causes its speed to increase, the new speed will contribute to its centripetal acceleration. But at the first instant, all that mattered was its existing speed and the radius of curvature.

    • @carultch
      @carultch 3 года назад

      Here's how to prove it.
      Consider a body moving CCW around a circular path of a fixed radius R, centered on the origin, and starting on the x-axis. The arc length it travels is given by a generic function L(t). We will call its speed V(t), which is also a general function. We expect that the centripetal acceleration will equal V(t)^2/R, and that the tangential acceleration will equal dV(t)/dt.
      We can relate arc length L(t) to V(t) by the definition of speed:
      V(t) = L'(t) = dL(t)/dt
      The angular position in radians directly relates to the arc length it travels:
      L(t) = R*theta(t)
      Its position vector is determined by:
      r(t) = R*
      The unit radial vector is:
      ur(t) =
      And the unit tangential vector is perpendicular to this one:
      ut(t) =
      First derivative, which is velocity:
      v(t) = r'(t) = R*
      Second derivative, which is acceleration:
      a(t) = r"(t) =
      x-term:
      d/dt rx'(t) = -R*theta"(t) * sin(theta(t)) - R*theta'(t)^2*cos(theta(t))
      y-term:
      d/dt ry'(t) = R*theta"(t) * cos(theta(t)) - R*theta'(t)^2*sin(theta(t))
      Notice that the first term of the acceleration vector components has the same trig functions as the tangential vector, and likewise, the radial unit vector has the same trig functions as the second term, but negated.
      This means we can express this with the unit vectors ut(t) and ur(t):
      a(t) = R*theta"(t)*ut(t) - R*theta'(t)^2*ur(t)
      Recall theta(t) = 1/R*L(t), which means:
      theta'(t) = 1/R*L'(t) = 1/R*V(t)
      theta"(t) = 1/R*V'(t)
      Which substitutes as the following:
      a(t) = V'(t) * ut(t) - V(t)^2/R^2 * u(t)
      The component of a(t) that is in the tangential direction, as you can see, is equal to the rate of change in speed. This is the tangential acceleration.
      The radial component of a(t) is equal to -V(t)^2/R. The negative of the centripetal acceleration.

    So the mass falls out? Does this actually make sense? Under the assumption that whatever vehicle I decide to spin around in a circle is using a rubber wheel on concrete, I could get the same speed on a bicycle as I would a hummer or even an airplane, and as long as I didn't go over 32 mph I wouldn't spin out, but I would spin out on all three if I went over?
    Thats a very strange concept, I imagine its different in real life as you have an issue with air perhaps lifting any of these objects as a result of going over them, but I still feel like mass should play more of a role, no?

    • @yoprofmatt

      Well weight and center of gravity aren't included so no all three objects would be different.

    • @carultch
      @carultch 5 лет назад

      It is only for a first order understanding of friction, that this is true. I.e. that friction coefficients only depend on the identity of the surfaces interacting, and not on geometry, force or kinematics. Useful for introductory physics, and consistent with experimental results for many situations. Part of the difference among different vehicles, is not all tire rubbers are an identical recipe of rubber. The durometer (a measure of stiffness) of the rubber will play a role in different friction coefficients, although that would be explained as being a different "identity of the surfaces".
      In reality, other factors will come in to play, when they happen to an extreme enough degree. Tread pattern, contact pressure, temperature from history of frictional heating will all play a role. Contact pressure will govern what category of contact is between the two surfaces, and contact pressure is not necessarily uniform across the whole contact patch.
