Physics Notes - Class 11 Level

Chapter 1: Laws of Motion

Newton's Laws of Motion:

1. First Law: A body continues in its state of rest or uniform motion unless acted upon by an external force.

- Also called Law of Inertia.

- Example: A book on a table stays still until pushed.

2. Second Law: F = ma (Force = mass acceleration)

- The acceleration produced is directly proportional to the net force and inversely to the mass.

- Units: Force (N), mass (kg), acceleration (m/s)

3. Third Law: Every action has an equal and opposite reaction.

- Action and reaction act on different bodies.

Inertia:

- Tendency of a body to resist change in its state.

- Types: Inertia of rest, motion, and direction.

Friction:

- Force that opposes relative motion.

- Types: Static, Kinetic, Rolling.

- Useful for walking but causes wear.

Free Body Diagrams (FBD):

- Diagrams to show all forces acting on a body.

- Useful in solving problems with tension, normal force, friction, etc.

Chapter 2: Work, Energy and Power

Work:

- Work is said to be done when a force is applied and displacement occurs.


Physics Notes - Class 11 Level

- Formula: W = F d cos(theta)

- Units: Joule (J), 1 J = 1 Nm

Positive, Negative & Zero Work:

- Positive: Force and displacement in same direction.

- Negative: Opposite direction.

- Zero: No displacement or 90 angle.

Energy:

- Capacity to do work.

- Types: Kinetic Energy (mv), Potential Energy (mgh)

- Conservation of Energy: Energy can neither be created nor destroyed.

Power:

- Rate of doing work.

- Formula: P = W/t, Unit: Watt (W)

- 1 horsepower = 746 W

Commercial Unit of Energy:

- Kilowatt-hour (kWh)

- 1 kWh = 3.6 10 J

Chapter 3: Current Electricity

Electric Current:

- Flow of electric charge.

- I = Q/t (Current = charge/time), Unit: Ampere (A)

Ohm's Law:

- V = IR (Voltage = Current Resistance)

- Graph between V and I is a straight line for ohmic conductors.


Physics Notes - Class 11 Level

Resistance:

- Opposition to flow of current.

- Unit: Ohm ()

- Depends on: length, area, material, temperature.

Resistors in Series:

- R_total = R1 + R2 + R3

Resistors in Parallel:

- 1/R_total = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3

Electrical Energy:

- W = VIt = IRt = Vt/R

Applications:

- Fuse: safety device based on heating effect.

- Rheostat: variable resistor.
