1. Vectors in Mechanics | 力学中的向量
In mechanics, displacement, velocity, acceleration and force are all vector quantities. You must be comfortable using i-j notation or column vectors. The magnitude of a vector v = a i + b j is √(a² + b²), and its direction is given by the angle θ = arctan(b/a). When solving problems, always treat horizontal and vertical components separately – they obey the same suvat equations independently.
在力学中,位移、速度、加速度和力都是向量。你需要熟练使用 i-j 符号或列向量。向量 v = a i + b j 的模为 √(a² + b²),方向角 θ = arctan(b/a)。解题时始终将水平和竖直分量分开处理——它们各自独立满足 suvat 方程。
For example, a particle with initial velocity (3i + 4j) m s⁻¹ and constant acceleration (0.5i + 0.2j) m s⁻² has a velocity after 10 seconds of (3+5)i + (4+2)j = 8i + 6j m s⁻¹. The speed is then √(8²+6²) = 10 m s⁻¹.
例如,一质点初速度为 (3i + 4j) m s⁻¹,加速度恒为 (0.5i + 0.2j) m s⁻²,则 10 秒后的速度为 (3+5)i + (4+2)j = 8i + 6j m s⁻¹,速率为 √(8²+6²) = 10 m s⁻¹。
2. Kinematics with Constant Acceleration (suvat) | 匀加速运动学(suvat)
The five standard suvat equations apply only when acceleration is constant. Memorise them: v = u + at; s = ½(u+v)t; s = ut + ½at²; v² = u² + 2as; s = vt – ½at². Choose the equation that includes the three known quantities and the unknown you need, ignoring the rest. Always define a positive direction first, especially in vertical motion under gravity where a = ±g (usually 9.8 m s⁻²).
五个标准 suvat 方程仅适用于匀加速运动。牢记:v = u + at;s = ½(u+v)t;s = ut + ½at²;v² = u² + 2as;s = vt – ½at²。选择包含三个已知量和所求未知量的方程,忽略其余。务必先规定正方向,特别是在重力作用下的竖直运动中,a = ±g(通常取 9.8 m s⁻²)。
A stone thrown vertically upwards with speed 14.7 m s⁻¹ takes 3 s to return to the launch point. Using s = 0, u = 14.7, a = -9.8, t = ? solves directly with s = ut + ½at²: 0 = 14.7t – 4.9t² → t = 0 or t = 3 s.
一块石头以 14.7 m s⁻¹ 的初速度竖直上抛,3 s 后落回起点。取 s = 0, u = 14.7, a = -9.8, 用 s = ut + ½at²:0 = 14.7t – 4.9t² → t = 0 或 t = 3 s。
3. Variable Acceleration and Calculus | 变加速运动与微积分
When acceleration varies with time, use differentiation and integration. Given displacement x(t), velocity v = dx/dt, acceleration a = dv/dt = d²x/dt². Conversely, given a(t), v = ∫a dt + C, and x = ∫v dt + D. The constants are found using initial conditions. In Further Mathematics, you may also use vectors: if a = f(t) i + g(t) j, integrate each component separately.
当加速度随时间变化时,要使用微分和积分。已知位移 x(t),则速度 v = dx/dt,加速度 a = dv/dt = d²x/dt²。反之,已知 a(t),有 v = ∫a dt + C,x = ∫v dt + D。常数由初始条件确定。在进阶数学中,也可能使用向量:若 a = f(t) i + g(t) j,则对各分量分别积分。
Example: a particle moves with a = (6t) i + 4 j. At t=0, v=2i, r=0. Integrating: v = (3t²+2)i + (4t)j; r = (t³+2t)i + (2t²)j. Remember to include constants of integration for each component.
示例:质点加速度 a = (6t) i + 4 j。t=0 时 v=2i, r=0。积分得 v = (3t²+2)i + (4t)j;r = (t³+2t)i + (2t²)j。务必为每个分量加上积分常数。
4. Newton’s Laws and Connected Particles | 牛顿定律与连接体
Newton’s second law F = ma is the cornerstone. Resultant force causes acceleration in the same direction. For connected particles, treat each particle separately or the system as a whole. Draw clear force diagrams showing weight, normal reaction, tension, and friction. When using the system approach, internal forces like tension cancel. But for individual objects, write separate equations and solve simultaneously.
牛顿第二定律 F = ma 是核心。合力产生同向的加速度。对于连接体,可分别处理各物体,或整体处理。画出清晰的受力图,标出重力、法向反力、张力和摩擦力。用整体法时,内力如张力会抵消。但对单个物体,要列出独立方程并联立求解。
| Method | Advantage |
| Particle-by-particle | Gives tension/internal forces |
| Whole system | Quicker for acceleration, avoids dealing with internal forces |
| 方法 | 优点 |
| 逐个物体列式 | 可求出张力/内力 |
| 整体法 | 快速求加速度,避免内力 |
5. Friction and Inclined Planes | 摩擦与斜面
Friction F opposes motion and satisfies F ≤ μR, where μ is the coefficient of friction and R is the normal reaction. At the point of slipping, limiting friction F_max = μR is used. On an inclined plane, resolve weight into components parallel (mg sin θ) and perpendicular (mg cos θ) to the slope. The normal reaction equals mg cos θ, and the net force downhill is mg sin θ – F.
摩擦力 F 阻碍相对运动,满足 F ≤ μR,其中 μ 为摩擦系数,R 为法向反力。在即将滑动时,使用极限摩擦 F_max = μR。在斜面上,将重力分解为沿斜面分量 (mg sin θ) 和垂直斜面分量 (mg cos θ)。法向反力等于 mg cos θ,沿斜面合力为 mg sin θ – F。
A block of mass 5 kg rests on a rough plane inclined at 30°. μ = 0.4. Find acceleration when released. R = 5g cos30° = 42.44 N, F_max = 0.4×42.44 = 16.98 N, downhill force = 5g sin30° = 24.5 N. Net force = 24.5 – 16.98 = 7.52 N, a = 7.52/5 = 1.50 m s⁻².
一质量 5 kg 的木块静止在倾角 30° 的粗糙斜面上,μ = 0.4。求释放时的加速度。R = 5g cos30° = 42.44 N,F_max = 0.4×42.44 = 16.98 N,下滑力 = 5g sin30° = 24.5 N。合力 = 24.5 – 16.98 = 7.52 N,a = 7.52/5 = 1.50 m s⁻²。
6. Momentum and Impulse | 动量与冲量
Momentum is p = mv. Impulse = FΔt = Δp = mv – mu. For a constant force, Impulse = Ft; for a variable force, Impulse is the area under the force-time graph. Momentum is a vector: in collisions or explosions, apply conservation of momentum along the line of impact. In two dimensions, treat components independently. Remember that impulse has the same units as momentum (kg m s⁻¹ or N s).
动量 p = mv。冲量 = FΔt = Δp = mv – mu。恒力下冲量 = Ft;变力时冲量为力-时间图下的面积。动量是向量:在碰撞或爆炸中,沿作用线方向动量守恒。二维情况需分解分量。注意冲量与动量单位相同(kg m s⁻¹ 或 N s)。
- Perfectly inelastic collision: particles stick together, velocity after = (m₁u₁ + m₂u₂)/(m₁+m₂).
- 完全非弹性碰撞:两物体合为一体,碰后速度 = (m₁u₁ + m₂u₂)/(m₁+m₂)。
- Elastic collision: both momentum and kinetic energy are conserved.
- 弹性碰撞:动量和动能均守恒。
7. Work, Energy and Power | 功、能与功率
Work done by a constant force = Fd cos θ, where θ is the angle between force and displacement. Kinetic energy = ½mv², gravitational potential energy = mgh. The work-energy principle: net work done = change in kinetic energy. In problems with smooth inclines, energy methods often provide a simpler route than Newton’s law. Power = work/time or = Fv for constant force parallel to velocity.
恒力做功 = Fd cos θ,θ 为力与位移的夹角。动能 = ½mv²,重力势能 = mgh。功能原理:合外力做功 = 动能变化量。在光滑斜面上,用能量法通常比牛顿定律更简单。功率 = 功/时间,或对于与速度同向的恒力,功率 = Fv。
Example: a car of mass 1200 kg moving at 20 m s⁻¹ experiences a constant resistance of 800 N. The engine power needed to maintain steady speed is F_resistance × v = 800 × 20 = 16000 W = 16 kW. If the car accelerates from 20 to 30 m s⁻¹ in 10 s, use energy: work by engine – work against resistance = ΔKE.
示例:质量 1200 kg 的汽车以 20 m s⁻¹ 行驶,阻力恒为 800 N。维持匀速所需的发动机功率为 F_阻 × v = 800 × 20 = 16000 W = 16 kW。若汽车在 10 s 内由 20 加速到 30 m s⁻¹,用能量法:发动机做功 – 克服阻力做功 = 动能增量。
8. Moments and Equilibrium | 力矩与平衡
The moment of a force about a point = force × perpendicular distance. For a rigid body in equilibrium, resultant force = 0 in all directions and sum of moments about any point = 0. Always take moments about a point that eliminates an unknown force. For non-uniform rods, the weight acts through the centre of mass. When a rod is on the point of tilting, the reaction at one support becomes zero.
力对一点的力矩 = 力 × 垂直距离。刚体平衡时,所有方向的合力为零,且对任一点的合力矩为零。力矩中心常选在能消去未知力的位置。对于非匀质杆,重力作用在质心上。当杆即将翻倒时,某一支点的反力为零。
A uniform beam of length 5 m and weight 200 N rests on supports at A and B, 1 m from each end. A load of 300 N is placed 0.5 m from the right end. Taking moments about A: (200 × 1.5) + (300 × 3.5) = R_B × 3. Solve to find R_B = 450 N, then R_A = 500 – 450 = 50 N.
一根均质梁长 5 m、重 200 N,支承在离两端各 1 m 的 A、B 处。一 300 N 负载放在离右端 0.5 m 处。对 A 取矩:(200 × 1.5) + (300 × 3.5) = R_B × 3。解得 R_B = 450 N,则 R_A = 500 – 450 = 50 N。
9. Centre of Mass | 质心
The centre of mass of a system of particles is the point r = (Σ m_i r_i) / Σ m_i. For uniform laminae, use symmetry where possible. Standard results: uniform triangular lamina – centre of mass at the intersection of medians (2/3 from vertex to midpoint of opposite side). Composite bodies: treat as several simple shapes, calculate total mass and sum of moments.
质点系的质心位置 r = (Σ m_i r_i) / Σ m_i。均匀薄板尽可能利用对称性。标准结论:均匀三角形薄板质心在中线交点(距顶点 2/3、距对边中点 1/3 处)。组合体可分解为几个简单形状,求出总质量和合力矩。
For a uniform wire bent into a triangle, the centre of mass lies at the same geometric centre as the lamina. When objects are suspended, they will rest with the centre of mass vertically below the point of suspension.
由均质金属丝弯成的三角形,其质心与相同形状薄板的几何中心重合。悬挂物体时,质心一定在悬挂点正下方。
10. Problem-Solving Strategy for Topic Tests | 专题测试解题策略
Read the question carefully – identify given quantities, which are vectors or scalars, and the direction conventions. For mechanics, always start with a clear, labelled diagram. List suvat quantities or forces component-wise. If a system is in equilibrium, resolve forces and take moments. For motion, choose the most efficient method: suvat, energy, or momentum. Check units and whether the answer is plausible (e.g., tensions should be positive; time cannot be negative). Finally, re-read the question to ensure you have answered exactly what was asked.
仔细读题——识别已知量,区分向量与标量,明确正方向约定。解力学题一定要从清晰标注的示意图开始。列出 suvat 量或力的分项。若系统平衡,则分解力并取力矩。对于运动问题,选择最有效的方法:suvat、能量或动量。检查单位,验证答案合理性(如张力应为正,时间不能为负)。最后,再次读题确保答即所问。
| Common Mistake | How to Avoid |
| Forgetting direction of g | State positive direction at top of page |
| Sign errors in suvat | Always keep acceleration consistent with chosen positive direction |
| Missing the normal reaction on a slope | Resolve perpendicular to slope: R = mg cos θ |
| Assuming friction = μR when not limiting | Only use F = μR when given “on the point of sliding” |
| 常见错误 | 避免方法 |
| 遗忘 g 的方向 | 在页面顶部标明正方向 |
| suvat 符号错误 | 始终保持加速度与所选正方向一致 |
| 遗漏斜面上的法向反力 | 垂直于斜面分解:R = mg cos θ |
| 非极限状态下使用了 F = μR | 仅当有“即将滑动”条件时使用 F = μR |
