00-Mathematics for this course

<section begin=00-Mathematics_for_this_course/>

   Measured in radians, θ=s/r defines angle (in radians), where s is arclength and r is radius. The circumference of a circle is C=2πr and the circle's area is A=πr2 is its area. The surface area of a sphere is A=4πr2 and sphere's volume is V=43πr3

Template:SpacesA vector can be expressed as, A=Axi^+Ayj^, where Ax=Acosθ, and Ay=Asinθ are the x and y components. Alternative notation for the unit vectors (i^,j^) include (x^,y^) and (e1^,e2^). An important vector is the displacement from the origin, with components are typically written without subscripts: r=xx^+yy^. The magnitude (or absolute value or norm) of a vector is is A|A|=Ax2+Ay2, where the angle (or phase), θ, obeys tanθ=y/x, or (almost) equivalently, θ=arctan(y/x). As with any function/inverse function pair, the tangent and arctangent are related by tan(tan1𝒳)=𝒳 where 𝒳=y/x. The arctangent is not a true function because it is multivalued, with tan1(tanθ)=θorθ+π.

Template:SpacesThe geometric interpretations of A+B=C and B=CA are shown in the figure. Vector addition and subtraction can also be defined through the components: A+B=C Ax+Bx=Cx AND Ay+By=Cy <section end=00-Mathematics_for_this_course/>

04-Dynamics: Force and Newton's Laws

<section begin=04-Dynamics:_Force_and_Newton's_Laws/> Newton's laws of motion, can be expressed with two equations, ma=Fj and Fij=Fji. The second represents the fact that the force that the Template:Nowrap object exerts one object exerts on the Template:Nowrap object is equal and opposite the force that the Template:Nowrap exerts on the Template:Nowrap object.

05-Friction, Drag, and Elasticity

<section begin=05-Friction,_Drag,_and_Elasticity/>

  • fk=μkN is an approximation for the force friction when an object is sliding on a surface, where μk ("mew-sub-k") is the kinetic coefficient of friction, and N is the normal force.
  • fsμsN approximates the maximum possible friction (called static friction) that can occur before the object begins to slide. Usually μs > μk.

Also, air drag often depends on speed, an effect this model fails to capture. <section end=05-Friction,_Drag,_and_Elasticity/> Template:Cob

  • Us=12ksx2 is the potential energy stored in a spring with spring constant ks.
  • KEf+PEf=KEi+PEiQ relates the final energy to the initial energy. If energy is lost to heat or other nonconservative force, then Q>0.
  • W=Fcosθ=F (measured in Joules) is the work done by a force F as it moves an object a distance . The angle between the force and the displacement is θ.
  • FΔ describes the work if the force is not uniform. The steps, Δ, taken by the particle are assumed small enough that the force is approximately uniform over the small step. If force and displacement are parallel, then the work becomes the area under a curve of F(x) versus x.
  • P=FΔΔt=Fv is the power (measured in Watts) is the rate at which work is done. (v is velocity.)

08-Linear Momentum and Collisions

<section begin=08-Linear_Momentum_and_Collisions/>

  • p=mv is momentum, where m is mass and v is velocity. The net momemtum is conserved if all forces between a system of particles are internal (i.e., come equal and opposite pairs):
  • pf=pi.
  • F¯Δt=Δp is the impulse, or change in momentum associated with a brief force acting over a time interval Δt. (Strictly speaking, F¯ is a time-averaged force defined by integrating over the time interval.)

09-Statics and Torque

Template:Cot <section begin=09-Statics_and_Torque/>

  • τ=rFsinθ, is the torque caused by a force, F, exerted at a distance ,r, from the axis. The angle between r and F is θ.

The Template:Lw for torque is the Template:Lw (N·m). It would be inadvisable to call this a Joule, even though a Joule is also a (N·m). The symbol for torque is typically τ, the Greek letter tau. When it is called moment, it is commonly denoted M.[1] The lever arm is defined as either r, or r. Labeling r as the lever arm allows moment arm to be reserved for r. <section end=09-Statics_and_Torque/> Template:Cob

11-Fluid statics

Template:Cot <section begin=11-Fluid_statics/>

Pressure is the weight per unit area of the fluid above a point.

Pressure versus Depth: A fluid's pressure is F/A where F is force and A is a (flat) area. The pressure at depth, h below the surface is the weight (per area) of the fluid above that point. As shown in the figure, this implies:

P=P0+ρgh

where P0 is the pressure at the top surface, h is the depth, and ρ is the mass density of the fluid. In many cases, only the difference between two pressures appears in the final answer to a question, and in such cases it is permissible to set the pressure at the top surface of the fluid equal to zero. In many applications, it is possible to artificially set P0 equal to zero, for example at atmospheric pressure. The resulting pressure is called the gauge pressure, for Pgauge=ρgh below the surface of a body of water.

Buoyancy and Archimedes' principle Pascal's principle does not hold if two fluids are separated by a seal that prohibits fluid flow (as in the case of the piston of an internal combustion engine). Suppose the upper and lower fluids shown in the figure are not sealed, so that a fluid of mass density ρflu comes to equilibrium above and below an object. Let the object have a mass density of ρobj and a volume of AΔh, as shown in the figure. The net (bottom minus top) force on the object due to the fluid is called the buoyant force:

buoyantforce=(AΔh)(ρflu)g,

and is directed upward. The volume in this formula, AΔh, is called the volume of the displaced fluid, since placing the volume into a fluid at that location requires the removal of that amount of fluid. Archimedes principle states:

A body wholly or partially submerged in a fluid is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the displaced fluid.

Template:Cot <section begin=12-Fluid_dynamics/>

A fluid element speeds up if the area is constricted.
  • ΔVΔt=V˙=Av=Q the volume flow for incompressible fluid flow if viscosity and turbulence are both neglected. The average velocity is v and A is the cross sectional area of the pipe. As shown in the figure, v1A1=v2A2 because Av is constant along the developed flow. To see this, note that the volume of pipe is ΔV=AΔx along a distance Δx. And, v=Δx/Δt is the volume of fluid that passes a given point in the pipe during a time Δt.
  • P1+ρgy1+12ρv12=P2+ρgy2+12ρv22 is Bernoulli's equation, where P is pressure, ρ is density, and y is height. This holds for inviscid flow.

  • E=ϖ2NkBT is the total energy of an ideal gas, where ϖ=3

14-Heat and Heat Transfer

Template:Cot <section begin=14-Heat_and_Heat_Transfer/> Here it is convenient to define heat as energy that passes between two objects of different temperature Q The SI unit is the Joule. The rate of heat trasfer, ΔQ/Δt or Q˙ is "power": Template:Nowrap begin1 Watt = 1 W = 1J/sTemplate:Nowrap end

  • Q=mcSΔT is the heat required to change the temperature of a substance of mass, m. The change in temperature is ΔT. The specific heat, cS, depends on the substance (and to some extent, its temperature and other factors such as pressure). Heat is the transfer of energy, usually from a hotter object to a colder one. The units of specfic heat are energy/mass/degree, or Template:Nowrap beginJ/(kg-degree)Template:Nowrap end.
  • Q=mL is the heat required to change the phase of a a mass, m, of a substance (with no change in temperature). The latent heat, L, depends not only on the substance, but on the nature of the phase change for any given substance. LF is called the latent heat of fusion, and refers to the melting or freezing of the substance. LV is called the latent heat of vaporization, and refers to evaporation or condensation of a substance.
  • Q˙=kcAdΔT is rate of heat transfer for a material of area, A. The difference in temperature between two sides separated by a distance, d, is ΔT. The thermal conductivity, kc, is a property of the substance used to insulate, or subdue, the flow of heat.
  • Q˙=σAϵT4 is the power radiated by a surface of area, A, at a temperature, T, measured on an absolute scale such as Kelvins. The emissivity, 0ϵ1, is 1 for a black body, and 0 for a perfectly reflecting surface. The Stefan-Boltzmann constant is σ5.67×108Js1m2K4.

15-Thermodynamics

<section begin=15-Thermodynamics/>

  • Pressure (P), Energy (E), Volume (V), and Temperature (T) are state variables (state functionscalled state functions). The number of particles (N) can also be viewed as a state variable.
  • Work (W), Heat (Q) are not state variables.
  • S(V,T)=3NkB2lnT+NkBlnV+constant, is the entropy of an ideal , monatomic gas. The constant is arbitrary only in classical (non-quantum) thermodynamics. Since it is a function of state variables, entropy is also a state function.

A point on a PV diagram define's the system's pressure (P) and volume (V). Energy (E) and pressure (P) can be deduced from equations of state: Template:Nowrap beginE=E(V,P) and T=T(V,P)Template:Nowrap end. If the piston moves, or if heat is added or taken from the substance, energy (in the form of work and/or heat) is added or subtracted. If the path returns to its original point on the PV-diagram (e.g., 12341 along the rectantular path shown), and if the process is quasistatic, all state variables Template:Nowrap return to their original values, and the final system is indistinguishable from its original state.

The net work done per cycle is area enclosed by the loop. This work equals the net heat flow into the system, QinQout (valid only for closed loops).

Remember: Area "under" is the work associated with a path; Area "inside" is the total work per cycle.

  • ΔW=FΔx=(PArea)(ΔVArea)=PΔV is the work done on a system of pressure P by a piston of voulume V. If ΔV>0 the substance is expanding as it exerts an outward force, so that ΔW<0 and the substance is doing work on the universe; ΔW>0 whenever the universe is doing work on the system.
  • ΔQ is the amount of heat (energy) that flows into a system. It is positive if the system is placed in a heat bath of higher temperature. If this process is reversible, then the heat bath is at an infinitesimally higher temperature and a finite ΔQ takes an infinite amount of time.
  • ΔE=ΔQPΔV is the change in energy (First Law of Thermodynamics).

CALCULUS: P dV=QinQout .

In an isothermal expansion (contraction), temperature, T, is constant. Hence P=nRT/V and substitution yields,
ViVfPdV=ViVfnRTdVV=nRTViVfdVV=nRTlnVfVi

<section begin=20-Electric_Current,_Resistance,_and_Ohm's_Law/>

  • I=dQdt  defines the electric current as the rate at which charge flows past a given point on a wire. The direction of the current matches the flow of positive charge (which is opposite the flow of electrons if electrons are the carriers.)
  • V=IR is Ohm's Law relating current, I, and resistance, R, to the difference in voltage, V, between the terminals.

<section end=VectorMagneticForce/>

  • Defining magnetic force and field without calculus:
  1.   B=μ0I2πr is the magnetic field at a distance r from an infinitely long wire carrying a current, where Template:Nowrap beginμ0 =Template:Nowrap end Template:Nowrap begin4π × 10−7 N ATemplate:Nowrap end. This field points azimuthally around the wire in a direction defined by the right hand rule. Application of the force law on a current element, we have
  2.   F=μ0I1I22πr is the force between two long wires of length separated by a short distance r<<. The currents are I1 and I2, with the force being attractive if the currents are flowing in the same direction.

Cyclotron motion: For a particle moving perpendicular to B, we have cyclotron motion. Recall that for uniform circular motion, the acceleration is a=v2/r, where r is the radius. Since sin θ =1, Newton's second law of motion (F=ma) yields,

ma=mv2r=qvB

Since, sin θ =0, for motion parallel to a magnetic field, particles in a uniform magnetic field move in spirals at a radius which is determined by the perpendicular component of the velocity:

r=mvqB

Hall effect: The Hall effect occurs when the magnetic field, velocity, and electric field are mutually perpendicular. In this case, the electric and magnetic forces are aligned, and can cancel if qE=qvB (since sinθ = 1). Since both terms are porportional to charge, q, the appropriate ratio of electric to magnetic field for null net force depends only on velocity:

E=vB=emf,

where we have used the fact that voltage (i.e. emf or potential) is related to the electric field and a displacement parallel to that field: ΔV = -E Δs cosθ

Maxwell's equations hold for all volumes and closed surfaces. In vacuum, electromagnetic waves travel at the speed, c=1ϵ0μ0.

S𝐄d𝐀=1ϵ0VρdV C𝐄d𝐥=S𝐁td𝐀
S𝐁d𝐀=0 C𝐁d𝐥=μ0S𝐉d𝐀+ϵ0μ0S𝐄td𝐀
VρdV=Qencl S𝐉d𝐀=Iencl

The last row relates the volume integral of the charge density to the enclosed charge, and also the surface integral of the current density to the current that pierces the surface (or is enclosed by the closed loop that defines the surface). <section end=24-Electromagnetic_Waves/>

relates the focal length f of the lens, the image distance S1, and the object distance S2. The figure depicts the situation for which Template:Nowrap are all positive: (1)The lens is converging (convex); (2) The real image is to the right of the lens; and (3) the object is to the left of the lens. If the lens is diverging (concave), then f < 0. If the image is to the left of the lens (virtual image), then S2 < 0 .

  • Ssinθ=nλ where n=1,2,3,4... describes the constructive interference associated with two slits in the Fraunhoffer (far field) approximation.
  • cos(ω1t)+cos(ω2t)=A(t)cos(ω¯t) where ω¯ is the high frequency carrier and A(t)=2cos(Δω2t) is the slowly varying envelope. Here,
ω¯=ω1+ω22 and Δω=ω2ω1. Consequently, the beat frequency heard when two tones of frequency f1 and f2 is Δf=f2f1.
  • cos(k1ωt)+cos(k2ωt)=2cos(kΔ)cos(ωtϕ) models the addition of two waves of equal amplitude but different path length, Δ=21.

Test 4 Condensed Summary

  • S𝐄d𝐀=1ϵ0Qencl (to find the electric field of a capacitor.) Also, S𝐁d𝐀=0
  • ΔV=ab𝐄d𝐥 (is used to relate electric field to voltage (or emf).)
  • C𝐁d𝐥=μ0Iencl+ϵ0μ0S𝐄td𝐀 (is Amphere's Law with Maxwell's extra term. Note that ϵ0μ0=1/c2. Also, if Maxwell's term is absent, it is more convenient to define H as B=μ0 so that C𝐇d𝐥=Iencl
  • Basic Capacitor rules: Q=CV where for a parallal plate capacitor, C=ϵ0A/d. A capacitor discharging through a resistor obeys V(t)=V0etRC (RC is the "RC decay time").
  • To find the electric field sum over the point sources:

E(r)=14πε0i=1N^iQi|i|2=14πε0i=1NiQi|i|3 where i=rri, points from source points ri to the field point r.
