d = displacement of object while force is acting; F is really the component of the force in the direction of motion (both force and displacement are vectors) If force perpendicular to displacement no work done 5 Potential and kinetic energy lifting object: work done against gravitational force; raised object can drop down and do work (e.g. pull a cart) i.e. raising object (doing work on it), increased its potential to do work “gravitational potential energy”; falling of raised object: object is accelerated -- loses potential energy -gains energy of motion - “kinetic energy”; object can do work by virtue of its motion. quantitatively: W = F h, F = m g W = m g h let object drop: kinetic energy K = mv2/2 6 Momentum Newton’s 2nd law: F ma m p = “momentum” p mv Relativistically, p mv mc , dv d dp (mv ) dt dt dt v c , 1 1 2 dp For system of particles: F dt , where p = total momentum, F= net external force acting on the system of particles If no external force momentum does not change; “momentum is conserved” When speeds are not negligible wrt speed of light, it is the “relativistic” momentum mv which is conserved 7 WAVES http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave http://www.physicsclassroom.com/class/waves/ http://www.physicsclassroom.com/calcpad/waves/ http://physics.info/waves/ wave = disturbance that propagates “disturbance” e.g., displacement of medium element from its equilibrium position; propagation can be in medium or in space (disturbance of a “field”); mechanical waves: when matter is disturbed, energy emanates from the disturbance, is propagated by interaction between neighboring particles; this propagation of energy is called wave motion; a traveling mechanical wave is a self-sustaining disturbance of a medium that propagates from one region to another, carrying energy and momentum. 8 The great wave (off Kanagawa) Katsushika Hokusai (1760 – 1849) http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/0d/Great_Wave_off_Kanagawa2.jpg 9 Mechanical waves Examples of mechanical waves o o o o waves on strings, surface waves on liquids, sound waves in a gas (e.g. in air), compression waves in solids and liquids; it is the disturbance that advances, not the material medium transverse wave displacements perpendicular to direction of propagation; longitudinal wave: sustaining medium displaced parallel to direction of propagation (e.g. sound waves, some seismic waves, compression waves in a bell); 10 periodic wave motion periodic wave motion: particles oscillate back and forth, same cycle of displacement repeated again and again; (we only discuss periodic waves) terms describing waves: crest of the wave = position of maximum displacement (“highest point of the wave”) wavelength = distance between successive same-side crests 11 http://www.qrg.northwestern.edu/projects/vss/docs/communications/1-what-is-wavelength.html Quantities describing waves, cont’d frequency f = number of same-side crests passing by a fixed point per second period T = time for one complete wave oscillation: period = 1/frequency unit of frequency: 1 Hertz = 1Hz = 1/second amplitude = amount of maximum displacement (height of crest above undisturbed position) wave velocity v = velocity of propagation of wave crest wave velocity (speed of waves) depends on properties of the carrying medium; in general: speed of mechanical waves in solids greater than in liquids, and greater in liquids than in gases. relation between speed, wavelength and frequency: v = f , i.e. speed = frequency times wavelength 12 Energy in a wave intensity of a wave is a measure of how much power is transported to a point by the wave; intensity = energy flow per unit time, per unit area = power per unit area, (where area = area perpendicular to propagation direction) energy flow carried by wave: is proportional to the square of the amplitude and the square of the frequency; “inverse square law of wave intensity”: the intensity of a wave is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source of the wave I = P/(4R2) (source = object emitting the wave) (I = intensity, P = total power emitted by source, R = distance from source) (strictly speaking, only for point-like or spherically symmetric sources, or if size of the source much smaller than R) 13 Superposition of waves, interference Superposition principle: two or more waves moving through the same region of space will superimpose and produce a well-defined combined effect; the resultant of two or more waves of the same kind overlapping is the algebraic sum of the individual contributions at each point, i.e. the (signed) displacements (elongations) add. Huygens' principle every point on a wavefront can be considered as a source, emitting a wave; the superposition of all these waves results in the observed wave. consequences: interference, diffraction 14 Interference interference: superposition of two waves of same frequency can lead to reinforcement (constructive interference) or partial or complete cancellation (destructive interference; constructive interference: two waves “in phase”, (i.e. crests of two waves coincide in time) reinforce each other, resultant amplitude bigger than that of individual waves; destructive interference: two waves “completely out of phase” (i.e. out of phase by 1/2 period, so that crests of one wave coincide with troughs of the other) cancellation; complete cancellation (extinction) if both waves have same amplitude. phase differences can be caused by: differences in path length; given a path length difference, the phase difference depends on the wavelength; travel time difference due to difference in speed in different media; reflection; 15 Interference, cont’d examples: colors of thin films (oil on water, soap bubbles) dead spots in auditorium diffraction grating: o many narrow parallel slits spaced closely together; o every slit forms source for wave; o differences in path length from different slits to some point in space phase difference wavelength dependent interference pattern; o can be used to measure wavelength; interferometers: o Michelson - Morley (used to measure “ether wind”) o Fabry - Perot 16 Summary – mechanical waves Travelling mechanical waves are due to the propagation of a disturbance (displacement from equilibrium position) in a medium Medium must have some kind of “stiffness” (or “elasticity”) which causes restoring force and the coupling between neighboring elements of the medium Speed of wave propagation depends on strength of the coupling between neighbors and the inertia (resistance against being accelerated away from the equilibrium position) Propagation speed, wavelength and frequency are related by v=f Propagation speed v = (K/), where K = stiffness coefficient and is the density Transverse waves: motion of oscillating elements direction of wave propagation Longitudinal waves: motion of oscillating elements direction of wave propagation (e.g. sound waves in air) 17 Summary mechanical waves – (2) For a string, the stiffness coefficient is given by the string tension T and the density is the linear mass density (mass per unit length) of the string: v T Waves can superimpose, which can lead to extinction or reinforcement (constructive or destructive interference) Doppler effect: when source and receiver (observer) approach (move away from) each other, the received (observed) frequency is higher (lower) than the emitted one http://www2.hawaii.edu/~plam/ph170_summer/L15/15_Lecture_Lam.pdf http://www.physicsclassroom.com/class/waves/u10l1c.cfm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave 18 Reflection of a wave pulse 19 Standing Waves When two sets of waves of equal amplitude and wavelength pass through each other in opposite directions, it is possible to create an interference pattern that looks like a wave that is “standing still.” 20 Parameters of a Standing Wave There is no vibration at a node. There is maximum vibration at an antinode. is twice the distance between successive nodes or successive antinodes. 21 standing waves on a string: reflection of wave at end of string, interference of outgoing with reflected wave “standing wave” nodes: string fixed at ends displacement at end must be = 0 “(displacement) nodes” at ends of string not all wavelengths possible; length must be an integer multiple of half-wavelengths: L = n /2, n = 1,2,3,… possible wavelengths are: n = 2L/n, n=1,2,3,… possible frequencies: o fn = n v/(2L), n=1,2,3,….

The air column in the graduated cylinder can be adjusted by putting water in it. For each frequency, find a water column height for which a clear resonance is heard. adjust the water height finely to get the peak resonance, then carefully measure the air column from water to top of air column. What to do: (1) Fill out the columns in the table (assume that the loudspeaker creates an anti-node and the water creates a node.) (note that the values given in the table are for illustrative purposes – actual values will be determined in class and included in instructions on Blackboard) (2) Determine uncertainty of your result for the speed of sound (std. deviation) (3) Explain the inherent errors in this experiment frequency (Hz) length of air column(cm) 184 46 328 26 384 22 440 19 512 16 1024 9 wavelength (m) speed of sound (m/s) 29 Conservation of mechanical energy conservation of (mechanical) energy: when lifting the object, its gravitational potential energy is increased by the amount of work done lifting; Work done against gravitational force Fg when lifting object by height h: W = Fg h = mgh when the object falls, this energy is converted (transformed) into “kinetic energy” (energy of motion) (provided there is no “loss” due to friction,..) gravitational potential energy: Ug = m g h o m = mass, h = height to which object was lifted, g = gravitational acceleration kinetic energy K = ½ mv2 30 Conservation of Energy Energy conservation: the total energy of all participants in any process is unchanged throughout that process. Energy can be transformed (changed from one energy form to another), and transferred (moved from one place to another), but cannot be created or destroyed. In an isolated system the total amount of energy is conserved – i.e. neither decreases nor increases Verification : need to keep track of energy in all of its forms Whenever experiments seem to indicate loss or gain of energy, a new form of energy was postulated and found 31 Types of energy – (1) Many different kinds of energy; can be transformed back and forth into each other: kinetic energy = energy of motion o Translational: motion of of an object of mass m and speed v , only correct if v<<c 1 Ktrans mv 2 2 K rot 1 2 I 2 o Rotational : associated with rotation of object around an axis, depends on angular velocity (radians/second) and moment of inertia I (depends on how mass is distributed wrt rotation axis) 2 I m r i i o Moment of inertia : o Sum integral for continuous mass distribution o Examples: 2 I MR Thin ring (all mass concentrated at distance R) 32 Solid sphere 2 2 I MR 5 Types of energy – (2) potential energy = energy of position or state; (gravitational, elastic, electric, chemical, nuclear) Gravitational potential energy = energy due to gravitational force between massive particles; o Near surface of Earth: F mgzˆ grav U grav mgz m = mass, g = grav. acceleration, ẑ = unit vector in upward direction Gm1m2 o In general: force between two massive objects: Fgrav rˆ 2 r potential energy U grav Gm1m2 r 33 Types of energy – (3) Electrostatic potential energy: energy due to electric force between charged particles o Coulomb force between two charged objects: potential energy U kq1q2 k 1 pt .ch r Fpt .ch. kq1q2 rˆ r2 4 0 elastic energy due to ability of deformed (stretched, squeezed,..) system to snatch back (e.g. rubber band, spring..) o spring force o Potential energy F x 1 U elastic x 2 2 Force vs potential energy: 2 F U , U 2 U1 Fd 1 o Change in potential energy = -(work done by the force); o Only change in potential energy is determined, U can be set =0 at convenient position 34 Types of energy – (4) chemical energy = energy stored in molecular structure of chemical compounds; can be “liberated” by chemical reactions converting compound into other compounds with less stored chemical energy. thermal energy = kinetic energy of random motion of molecules; brought into system by “heating”; different from other forms of energy - not all of it can be converted back. electromagnetic energy (electric energy) = energy due to electromagnetic forces; radiant energy = energy carried by electromagnetic radiation; nuclear energy = energy due to nuclear structure, i.e. how protons and neutrons are bound to each other to35 form nuclei Internal energy For most classical purposes, internal energy = sum of microscopic kinetic and potential energies of all atoms and molecules of an object. Object’s overall kinetic and potential energies can be converted into increased random internal energy (e.g. dropping book to the floor, friction, non-perfectly elastic deformation,..) 100% conversion overall internal is possible, but 100% conversion internal is not (2nd law of thermodynamics) 36 Conservation laws Conservation laws in physics “conserved quantities”: = quantities that do not change - “are conserved” Conservation laws are related to “symmetry” property of system also called “invariance” property. Every invariance property is associated with a conserved quantity. Energy conservation is related to “invariance under translation in time” (i.e. laws of physics do not change as time passes). Other conserved quantities: o momentum (invariance under translation in space); o angular momentum (rotation); o electric charge (“gauge transformation”); o certain properties of subatomic particles (e.g. 37 “Isospin”, “color charge”, ...)
