The central force problem is a classical mechanics issue where a particle is subject to a force that is directed towards a fixed point (the center) and whose magnitude depends only on the distance from the center. This problem is elegantly addressed using the concept of effective potential, which combines both the actual potential energy […]
Central Forces and Effective Potential Central forces are pivotal in understanding the dynamics of systems where the force between two bodies depends solely on the distance between them and acts along the line connecting their centers. One powerful tool in analyzing such systems is the concept of effective potential, which combines the central potential and […]
Newton’s Laws in One Dimension: Problems on Pseudo Forces Newton’s laws of motion are fundamental to understanding the dynamics of objects. In non-inertial reference frames, pseudo forces (also known as fictitious forces) must be introduced to account for the observed motion. This article explores problems involving pseudo forces in one-dimensional motion, providing practical examples and […]
