💡 Did You Know?
  • Collision numericals in every JEE paper since 2002
  • Spring PE — asked yearly in NEET
  • Work-energy theorem — zero skips in BITSAT
  • COR (e) definition — asked 9× in JEE
  • Chapter 6 = bridge to Chapter 7 (rotation)
Key Takeaways
🔑
Work-Energy Theorem: W_net = ΔKE
Even when multiple forces act, net work = change in KE.
Elastic collision: KE and momentum both conserved
Inelastic: only momentum conserved. COR e = relative speed after/before.
📐
Spring PE = ½kx²; KE = ½mv²
At natural length: all KE. At max compression/extension: all PE.
🌊
Conservative force: work is path-independent
Friction is non-conservative; spring and gravity are conservative.
🧮
Power = F·v (instantaneous)
For constant force: P = F × v where v is instantaneous velocity.
🎯
In elastic head-on collision, identical masses
Velocities are exchanged. Ball 1 stops, ball 2 moves with ball 1's speed.

Mock TestDay 8
30-Q timed. Energy conservation + collisions = ~50% of marks.
🗓️ 8-Day Chapter Plan
Day 1–2 Work & Energy Definitions
Day 3 Work-Energy Theorem
Day 4 Conservation of Energy
Day 5 Collisions
Day 6 Power
Day 7 Attempt All PYQs
Day 8 Mock Test
🧠 Pro Tip: In collision problems, always check: is it elastic (use both KE and momentum) or inelastic (use only momentum)?
