D. Gravitational, Electric, and Magnetic Fields Gravitational, Electric, and Magnetic Fields • Gravitational, electric, and magnetic forces act on matter from a distance. • Gravitational, electric, and magnetic fields share many similar properties. • The behaviour of matter in gravitational, electric, and magnetic fields can be described mathematically. • Technological systems that involve gravitational, electric, and magnetic fields can havean effect on society and the environment. Specific Expectations • use appropriate terminology related to fields, including, but not limited to: forces, potential energies, potential, and exchange particles • analyse, and solve problems relating to, Newton’s law of universal gravitation and circular motion (e.g., with respect to satellite orbits, black holes, dark matter) • analyse, and solve problems involving, electric force, field strength, potential energy, and potential as they apply to uniform and nonuniform electric fields (e.g., the fields produced by a parallel plate and by point charges) • analyse, and solve problems involving, the force on charges moving in a uniform magnetic field (e.g., the force on a currentcarrying conductor or a free electron) • conduct a laboratory inquiry or computer simulation to examine the behaviour of a particle in a field (e.g., test Coulomb’s law; replicate Millikan’s experiment or Rutherford’s scattering experiment; use a bubble or cloud chamber) • identify, and compare the properties of, fundamental forces that are associated with different theories and models of physics (e.g., the theory of general relativity and the standard model of particle physics) • compare and contrast the corresponding properties of gravitational, electric, and magnetic fields (e.g., the strength of each field; the relationship between charge in electric fields and mass in gravitational fields) • use field diagrams to explain differences in the sources and directions of fields, including, but not limited to, differences between near Earth and distant fields, parallel plates and point charges, straight line conductors and solenoids In 1916 Einstein expanded his Special Theory <SpecialRel.html> to include the effect of gravitation on the shape of space and the flow of time. This theory, referred to as the General Theory of Relativity, proposed that matter causes space to curve. Four Fundamental Interactions The forces of gravity and electromagnetism are familiar in everyday life. Two new forces are introduced when discussing nuclear phenomena: the strong and weak interactions . When two protons encounter each other, they experience all four of the fundamental forces of nature simultaneously. The weak force governs beta decay and neutrino interactions with nuclei. The strong force, which we generally call the nuclear force, is actually the force that binds quarks together to form baryons (3 quarks) and mesons (a quark and an anti quark). The nucleons of everyday matter, neutrons and protons, consist of the quark combinations uud and udd, respectively. The symbol u represents a single up quark, while the symbol d represents a single down quark. The force that holds nucleons together to form an atomic nucleus can be thought to be a residual interaction between quarks inside each individual nucleon. This is analogous to what happens in a molecule. The electrons in an atom are bound to its nucleus by electromagnetism: when two atoms are relatively near, there is a residual interaction between the electron clouds that can form a covalent bond. The nucleus can thus be thought of as a "strong force molecule." The force between two objects can be described as the exchange of a particle. The exchange particle transfers momentum and energy between the two objects, and is said to mediate the interaction. A simple analogue of this is a ball being thrown back and forth between two people. The momentum imparted to the ball by one person gets transferred to the other person when she catches the ball. 1 Take up questions from intro to electrostatics and Chapter 8 Vector measures and ideas Scalar measures and ideas Force and motion Newton's laws Equilibrium situations situations where either Force can be considered constant or force can be measured (calculas or graphs) Calculas when Force changes but with some sort of predicted fashion Energy conservation reflected through a change in a closed isolated system Snippet in time looking at the energy arrangement at one moment compared to the energy arrangement at another not caring how it got that way Graphs can always be used if the data can be graphed Field Force Gravity Electric FG=GM1m2 R2 g=GM R2 Fe=kQ1q2 R2 ε=kQ R2 EG= GM1m2 R Note 1 you are presented the known "equilibrium" situations. For gravity solar system where things exist generally in pairs sun planet or planet satellite. We say in these situations that the smaller mass "orbits" the larger mass. Rare exception is a small mass on earth where we can assume that "g" is relatively constant. Note 2 it is much easier to limit gravity to only 2 masses. Electric situations are much more difficult to find equilibrium situations for charges Note 1 simple cases are applied to "escape velocity" with gravity and plates with electricity Note 2 because electric forces are more difficult to study because of the large variety of charges in space or easier to study because we can assume that the moving charge will be the electron, a separate measure was created electric potential or potential difference or voltage. We will learn the difference bettween these two measures later. Note 3 due to two possible charges, the negative sign is eliminated from the energy equations for charge.
