Broken Symmetries
The origin of mass
Higgs Mechanism:
A field fills all of space because of a
mechanism called spontaneous symmetry
breaking. It ‘sticks’ to particles, making it
‘harder for them to move’. This is what
gives quarks and leptons their mass.
Spontaneous symmetry breaking

As a consequence, there
should also be a spin-0
boson,2 the Higgs boson.
It has not been found yet.

All forces are
CONSERVATIVE
or
NON-CONSERVATIVE
A force is conservative if:
The work
done
by the force in going


from r1 to r2 is independent of the path
the particle follows
or
The work done by the
 force when the
particle goes from r1 around a closed
path, back to r1 , is zero.
Non-conservative:
doesn’t
satisfy
above conditions
the
Theorem: if a force can be written as the gradient (slope)
of some scalar function, that force is conservative.
1D case:

Fx  
dx
U(x) is called the  potential energy
function for the force F
If such a function exists, then the force is

initial and final positions of a particle;
Then use

A block of mass m is attached to a vertical spring,
spring constant k.
A
If the spring is compressed an amount A and the block
released from rest, how high will it go from its initial
position?
A particle is moving in one direction x and its potential
energy is given by U(x) = ax2 – bx4 .
Determine the force acting on a particle.
Find the equilibrium points where a particle can be at rest.
Determine whether these points correspond to a stable or
unstable equilibrium.
Potential Energy Diagrams
• For Conservative
forces can draw
energy diagrams
• Equilibrium
points
– If placed in the
equilibrium point
with no velocity, will
just stay (no force)

The force is zero at both maxima and minima
but…
– If I put a ball with no velocity there would it stay?
– What if it had a little bit of velocity?
Block of mass m has a massless spring connected to
the bottom. You release it from a given height H and
want to know how close the block will get to the floor.
The spring has spring constant k and natural length

Water Slide
Who hits the bottom with a faster speed?
Roller Coaster
You are in a roller coaster car of mass M that
starts at the top, height H, with an initial
speed V0=0. Assume no friction.
a) What is the speed at the bottom?
b) How high will it go again?
c) Would it go as high if there were friction?
H
Roller Coaster with Friction
A roller coaster of mass m starts at rest at height
y1 and falls down the path with friction, then
back up until it hits height y2 (y1 > y2).
Assuming we don’t know anything about the
friction or the path, how much work is done by
friction on this path?
A gun shoots a bullet at angle θ with the x axis
with a velocity of magnitude Vm. What is
magnitude of the velocity when the bullet
returns to the ground? How high it will go?

Even if instantaneous power depends on time, one can
talk about the average power
Power could also define the rate at which any form
of energy is spent, not only mechanical
How many joules of energy does 100 watt light bulb use
per hour? How fast would a 70-kg person have to run to
have that amount of energy?
