Electrical Instruments

16
Problem Solution Method:
Five Steps: Focus on the Problem - draw a picture – what are we asking for? Describe the physics what physics ideas are applicable what are the relevant variables known and unknown Plan the solution what are the relevant physics equations Execute the plan solve in terms of variables solve in terms of numbers Evaluate the answer are the dimensions and units correct? do the numbers make sense?
17
Example: Power in Resistive Electric Circuits
A circuit consists of a 12 V battery with internal resistance of 2 connected to a resistance of 10 . The current in the resistor is I, and the voltage across it is V. The voltmeter and the ammeter can be considered ideal; that is, their resistances are infinity and zero, respectively. What is the current I and voltage V measured by those two instruments ? What is the power dissipated by the battery ? By the resistance ? What is the total power dissipated in the circuit ? Comment on these various powers.
18
Step 1: Focus on the problem
Drawing with relevant parameters Voltmeter can be put a two places V What is the question ? What is I ? What is V ? What is Pbattery ? What is PR ? What is Ptotal ? Comment on the various P’s e R I r A V 10 2 12 V
19
Step 2: describe the physics
What concepts are relevant ? Potential difference in a loop is zero Energy is dissipated by resistance What are the known and unknown quantities ? Known: R = 10 ,r = 2 = 12 V Unknown: I, V, P’s
20
Step 3: plan the solution
What are the relevant physics equations ? Kirchoff’s first law: Power dissipated: For a resistance
21
Step 4: solve with symbols
Find I: e - Ir - IR = 0 e R I r A Find V: Find the P’s:
22
Step 4: solve numerically
Putting in the numbers
23
Step 5: Evaluate the answers
Are units OK ? [ I ] = Amperes [ V ] = Volts [ P ] = Watts Do they make sense ? the values are not too big, not too small … total power is larger than power dissipated in R Normal: battery is not ideal: it dissipates energy

22-Magnetism
25
Magnetism Magnetic effects from natural magnets have been known for a long time. Recorded observations from the Greeks more than 2500 years ago. The word magnetism comes from the Greek word for a certain type of stone (lodestone) containing iron oxide found in Magnesia, a district in northern Greece – or maybe it comes from a shepherd named Magnes who got the stuff stuck to the nails in his shoes Properties of lodestones: could exert forces on similar stones and could impart this property (magnetize) to a piece of iron it touched. Small sliver of lodestone suspended with a string will always align itself in a north-south direction. ie can detect the magnetic field produced by the earth itself. This is a compass.
26
Bar Magnet Bar magnet ... two poles: N and S
Like poles repel; Unlike poles attract. Magnetic Field lines: (defined in same way as electric field lines, direction and density) You can see this field by bringing a magnet near a sheet covered with iron filings Does this remind you of a similar case in electrostatics?

29
Magnetic Monopoles One explanation: there exists magnetic charge, just like electric charge. An entity which carried this magnetic charge would be called a magnetic monopole (having + or - magnetic charge). How can you isolate this magnetic charge? Try cutting a bar magnet in half: N S In fact no attempt yet has been successful in finding magnetic monopoles in nature. Many searches have been made The existence of a magnetic monopole could give an explanation (within framework of QM) for the quantization of electric charge (argument of P.A.M.Dirac)
30
Source of Magnetic Fields?
What is the source of magnetic fields, if not magnetic charge? Answer: electric charge in motion! eg current in wire surrounding cylinder (solenoid) produces very similar field to that of bar magnet. Therefore, understanding source of field generated by bar magnet lies in understanding currents at atomic level within bulk matter. Orbits of electrons about nuclei Intrinsic “spin” of electrons (more important effect)
31
22-2:Forces due to Magnetic Fields
Electrically charged particles come under various sorts of forces. As we have already seen, an electric field provides a force to a charged particle, F = qE. Magnets exert forces on other magnets. Also, a magnetic field provides a force to a charged particle, but this force is in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field.
32
Definition of Magnetic Field
Magnetic field B is defined operationally by the magnetic force on a test charge. (We did this to talk about the electric field too) What is "magnetic force"? How is it distinguished from "electric" force? Start with some observations: Empirical facts: a) magnitude: µ to velocity of q b) direction: ^ to direction of q q F v mag
33
Magnetic Force on a Moving Charge
When moving through a magnetic field, a charged particle experiences a magnetic force where B is called Magnetic Field: It is a vector quantity The SI unit of magnetic field is the Tesla (T) The cgs unit is a Gauss (G) 1 T = 104 G Earth B-field: 0.5 G or 5 x 10-5 T
34
Direction of Magnetic Force

35
Direction of Magnetic Force
This relationship between the three vectors—magnetic field, velocity, and force—can also be written as a vector cross product: Right Hand Rule: Your thumb points in the direction of the force, F , for a positive charge max if v & B perpendicular if v & B parallel
36
22-3: motion of a charges particle
Consider a positive charge in an electric field force in the direction of field E in a magnetic field force is perpendicular to field B This leads to very different motions Because Fmag is perpendicular to the direction of motion, the path of a particle is circular Also, while E can do work on a particle, B cannot—the particle’s speed remains constant © 2017 Pearson Education, Inc.
37
Lorentz Force • The force F on a charge q moving with velocity v through a region of space with electric field E and magnetic field B is given by: x x x x x x v B q ® ® ® ® ® v B q v B q F F F = 0 Units: 1 T (tesla) = 1 N / Am 1G (gauss) = 10-4 T

Two protons each move at speed v (as shown in the diagram) toward a region of space which contains a constant B field in the -y-direction. What is the relation between the magnitudes of the forces on the two protons?

39
Circular motion Force is perp. to v q = 90o so sinq = 1 or F=qvB

40
Lecture 7, ACT 3 Cosmic rays (atomic nuclei stripped bare of their electrons) would continuously bombard Earth’s surface if most of them were not deflected by Earth’s magnetic field. Given that Earth is, to an excellent approximation, a magnetic dipole, the intensity of cosmic rays bombarding its surface is greatest at the (The rays approach the earth radially from all directions). A) Poles B) Equator C) Mid-lattitudes
41
Motion of Charged Particles
If a v makes an angle with B the component of v along B will not change a particle with initial v at an angle to B will move in a helical path.
42
Trajectory in Constant B Field

45
Lawrence's Insight "R cancels R"
We just derived the radius of curvature of the trajectory of a charged particle in a constant magnetic field. E.O. Lawrence realized in 1929 an important feature of this equation which became the basis for his invention of the cyclotron. Þ Þ Þ Rewrite in terms of angular velocity w ! R does indeed cancel R in above eqn. So What?? The angular velocity is independent of R!! Therefore the time for one revolution is independent of the particle's energy! We can write for the period, T=2p/w or T = 2pm/qB This is the basis for building a cyclotron.

22-4: Magnetic Force on a Current
Consider a current-carrying wire in the presence of a magnetic field B. There will be a force on each of the charges moving in the wire. What will be the total force DF on a length Dl of the wire? Suppose current is made up of n charges/volume each carrying charge q and moving with velocity v through a wire of cross-section A. N S Force on each charge = Total force = Current = Þ Simpler: For a straight length of wire L carrying a current I, the force on it is: or

When there is no current in the wire, it remains vertical. (c) When the current is upward, the wire deflects to the left. (d) When the current is downward, the wire deflects to the right.
