intensively. It is targeted to use genetics, atoms and lasers in the computer of the future. It is a limitless world, enriched by imagination, where sky is the limit. The scientific progress is a cumulative effort. This collective endeavor has led to where we are today. A scholar of physics must be acquainted with such accumulated knowledge in a short time, so that he could add to it within the limited span of his life. In studying what others have found, we must skip details and trials, and extract the end results and build on them.A global view is, therefore, more important at this stage than being drowned in minute details that could be postponed to a later stage of study. This book is divided into 5 units. Unit 1 deals with waves, which are the basis of communication in the universe. (Chapter 1) deals with wave motion, (chapter 2) with sound, and (chapter 3) with light. Unit 2 deals with fluid mechanics, : hydrostatics (chapter 4) and hydrodynamics (chapter 5). Unit 3 deals with heat, where (chapter 6) deals with gas laws, (chapter 7) with the kinetic theory of gases and (chapter 8) deals with low temperature physics. Unit 4 treats electricity, where (chapter 9) covers the electric current and Ohm’s law, (chapter 10) covers the magnetic effects of electric current and measuring instruments, while (chapter 11) covers electromagnetic induction. Unit 5 gives an introduction to modern physics, where (Chapter 12) deals
Foreword Physics is the cornerstone of basic sciences. It deals with the understanding of nature and what goes around us, big and small in this universe. It is the root of all sciences. Interwined with it is chemistry which focuses on reactions between materials, biology which deals with living creatures, geology which is involved with the layers of the Earth, and astronomy which treats celestial objects. But in the end, physics remains the mother of all sciences and the basis for the tremendous present scientific and technological progress. Understanding physics means understanding the laws governing this universe. Such understanding has led to the current industrial development spearheaded by the West. The Arabs and Moslems were once the pioneers of civilization in the world when they realized the importance of understanding the laws of this universe. We owe them the discovery of most laws of physics centuries before the West. The foundations of medicine, physics, chemistry, astronomy, mathematics and music were all laid by Arab and Moslem scientists. In fact, understanding physics and its applications converts a poor, and underdeveloped society into an affluent and developed one. This has taken place in Europe, US, Japan and South East Asia. Computers, satellites, cellular (mobile) phones, and TV are all byproducts of physics. Genetics is currently being looked into
with wave particle duality, (Chapter 13) deals with atomic spectra, and (chapter 14) deals with lasers and their applications, while (chapter 15) covers modern electronics. Suzanne Mubarak Science Exploration Center has carried out the preparation, and the typing of manuscript as well as the design of the artwork. In the end, we want the student to take liking to physics. For this is the way to the future. We want the teacher to teach the subject of physics in an innovative way, to arouse the interest of the students by constantly referring to the use and applications of physics in the daily life. We hope that one day we will have great inventors and industrialists among today's students.

Chapter 1 Overview :
Many of us enjoy watching waves on the surface of water pushing a fishing float or a boat up and down, or even making waves by throwing a pebble in a pond or still water. Each pebble becomes a source of disturbance in the water, spreading waves as concentric circles (Fig 1-1). Hence, waves are disturbances that spread and carry along energy.

Waves are not only water waves. There are, for example, radio waves. We often hear the announcer say: "This is Radio Cairo on the medium wave 366.7 m". Also, TV stations transmit both sound and image in the form of waves which are received by the aerial (antenna) . Such waves are transformed into electrical signals in the receiver, where they are eventually converted back to sound (audio) and image (video). Also, the mobile phone runs on waves. Sound signals are transformed into electrical signals then into 2

At a certain frequency, the amplitude of the mechanical vibration may get out of hand, e.g., the crushing of a glass cup due to nearby sound waves (Fig 1-8), and the collapse of Tacoma bridge (USA) due to strong winds in November 1940 (Fig 1-9). This condition is called resonance. It is the cause of the collapse of many buildings. It occurs when a simple harmonic motion is set at the natural (or resonant) frequency of the building. Similar to mechanical resonance, there is also Fig (1-8) electrical resonance which is the basis of tuning a radio A glass cup crushed due to nearby sound waves or a TV receiver to a certain station, where one out of many electrical signals picked up by the aerial is amplified and made to coincide with the resonant frequency of the amplifier in the receiver when tuned to that particular station.

Wave Motion
Longitudinal Waves:
Imagine a mass “m� on a smooth horizontal surface attached to one end of a spring whose other end is attached to a vertical wall. If we pull the mass in the direction of the spring and let it go, the mass moves around its rest position in an oscillatory motion toward the spring and away (Fig 1-10). This is a simple harmonic motion. If we draw the curve that the center of gravity of the mass makes with respect to its rest position, we will obtain a sine wave (Fig 1-11). This is what distinguishes a simple harmonic motion from any other type of motion.

Chapter 1:
You can do this experiment yourself by using a long stretched rope. The far end is attached to a vertical wall while the near end is in your hand. When you move your hand up and down in the form of a pulse, you note that the wave spreads in a pulse form along the rope. This is known as a traveling wave (Fig 1-14).

Wave Motion
Thus, a vibrating source making a simple harmonic motion may generate a wave propagating at velocity “v”. Each particle of the medium performs, in turn, a simple harmonic motion about its equilibrium position. An example of this motion is the longitudinal waves of sound in air.
Transverse Waves: Imagine a mass “m” attached to a vertical spring. A long horizontal taut (stretched) rope is also attached to this mass at the near end, while the other (far) end of the rope is attached

to a vertical wall. When the mass “m” performs a simple harmonic motion in the vertical direction, then the near end of the rope performs the same motion. Consequently, the following parts of the rope do the same thing successively. Then the motion transfers horizontally along the rope in the form of a wave at velocity “v”, while the other parts of the rope oscillate vertically in a simple harmonic motion about their rest positions. This wave is called a

In conclusion, we may classify mechanical waves into two types: 2 ) Longitudinal waves In transverse waves, the particles of the medium oscillate about their equilibrium positions in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the propagation of the wave. In longitudinal waves, the particles of the medium oscillate about their equilibrium positions along the direction of the propagation of the wave. The work done by the oscillating source is converted to the particles of a string (or a

A wave may also be continuous (called a traveling wave train) as long as the simple harmonic motion of the source keeps on(Fig 1-15). The stretched rope may be replaced by a spring in which a longitudinal wave (Fig 1-16) or a transverse wave (Fig 1-17) may be generated . We conclude that as a source oscillates , the particles of the medium oscillate successively in the same way. The vibration transfers first from the source to the particle of the medium next to it, then into the one connected to it, then into the following ones and so on. Thus, the vibration or disturbance forms a wave, since the wave is nothing but a disturbance (or energy) on the move along which energy is carried through . 12

It is also the number of waves passing by a certain point along the path of a wave in one second. Periodic time “T” is the time taken by a continuously vibrating body to perform one complete oscillation, or the time taken by a continuously vibrating body ( e.g. a simple pendulum ) to pass by a point along its path twice successively with motion in the same direction. Mechanical waves are either: 1 ) transverse waves. 2 ) longitudinal waves. Transverse waves are waves in which the particles of a medium oscillate about their equilibrium positions in a direction perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave. Longitudinal waves are waves in which the particles of a medium oscillate about their equilibrium positions along the same path of propagation of the wave. Transverse waves comprise crests and troughs in succession.

A complete oscillation is the movement of a continuously vibrating body ( e.g. a simple pendulum) is the interval between the instants of time as it passes by a certain point along its path twice successively with motion in the same direction.

Sound
Overview :
Sounds and tones are produced due to the vibration of objects. Such vibrations travel through air or any other medium in all directions. When these vibrations reach the ear, they are transmitted through the auditory nerve, then the brain translates them to sounds and tones
Reflection and Refraction of Sound: Firstly: Reflection of Sound:
Unit 1:
Waves
When a loud sound is produced at a suitable distance from a wall or a mountain, a sound is heard back resembling the original one. It is generated due to the reflection from the wall or the mountain, appearing as if it were coming from behind the wall or the
mountain. This sound is called echo. Hence, echo is the repetiton of sound produced due to reflection. Sound waves propagate in air in the form of concentric spheres of successive
compressions and rarefactions, whose center is the source of the sound . If these waves are obstructed by a large obstacle, they are reflected back also in the form of concentric spheres of compressions and rarefactions,whose center appears as if it lay behind the reflecting surface and at a distance equal to the distance of the original source from that surface. According to the laws of reflection: 1) the angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence. 2) the incident ray, the reflected ray and the normal to the surface at the point of incidence all lie in one plane normal to the reflecting surface. Note that: the sound ray is a straight line indicating the direction of propagation of the sound wave.

Waves
The velocity of sound in the air depends on the temperature of the air, since sound waves propagate in hot air faster than in cold air. When sound travels between two layers of air of different temperatures, it undergoes refraction (Fig 2 - 4). The figure illustrates the decrease of sound intensity as heard by an observer at a certain distance due to the refraction of sound upwards (leaking away), due to the increase of temperature on a hot day. At night, the sound is heard for longer distances due to the decrease of the temperature of the air adjacent to the surface of the Earth compared to layers above. Therefore, sound at night is refracted more toward the surface of the Earth.

Secondly: Refraction of sound
When sound falls on a surface between two media, part of it is reflected back to the first
medium according to the laws of reflection, while the rest is transmitted to the second medium, deviating from its original path (Fig 2-3 ). Refraction of sound - upon transmitting
Chapter 2:
from one medium to another - depends on the velocity of sound in these two media. In other words :
sinφ v1 = sinθΘ v2
(2-1)
This means that when the velocity of sound in the first medium v1 is greater than the
velocity of sound in the second medium v2, the sound refracts nearer to the normal, i.e., φ > θ
and vice versa. It is to be noted that the velocity of sound in gases decreases as their density increases, while in liquids and solids the velocity is affected by another factors,which is more effective than denisty.

Waves combine such that the resultant wave has intensity equal to the sum of intensities of the individual waves (Fig 2-9 a). When the frequencies are slightly different while the amplitude is the same, this combination (superposition) leads to beats (Fig 2-9 b , c , d ). If we move a tight wire or rope such that one pulse is generated (Fig 2-10 a ), then this pulse continues until it reaches the far end. If this end is attached to a sliding ring, then the reflected wave is positive ,i.e., in the same direction as the incident pulse. Whereas if this end is fixed such that it cannot move, then the reflected wave is always reversed (Fig 2-10 b). When the reflected wave meets the incident wave, constructive interference is produced in the first case (Fig 2-10 c ),and destructive interference is produced in the second case

Secondly: Sound Diffraction What is meant by diffraction? Diffraction is a change (or bending) of the wave path when passing through a slit or an aperture, small enough compared to the wavelength, or when passing by sharp edges in the same medium. We observe sound diffraction in our daily life. For example, if you speak in one room and a window or a door is open, someone in the next room may overhear you , although he is not standing right next to the window or the door (Fig 2-8). The sound intensity in the neighboring room depends on the position of a listener in that room, being maximum of course directly next to the opening. The spreading of sound in the neighboring room is attributed to diffraction .

Sound as a wave motion From above, we conclude that sound has wave properties :
1) It propagates in a medium in straight lines in all directions. 2) It undergoes reflection when falling on a surface, and the angle of reflection equals the angle of incidence.

The node is the position where the amplitude of the vibration is zero, while the antinode is the position where the amplitude of the vibration is maximum. Nodes and antinodes are spaced at equal distances apart (Fig 2-14). The wavelength of a standing wave is twice the distance between any two successive antinodes or two successive nodes. As the weight in the experiment is increased, the tension in the wire is increased, so is the velocity of propagation, and the frequency for the same wire length is also increased (Fig 2-15).

Light propagates in straight lines in all directions, unless met by an obstructing medium.
If so, it undergoes reflection, refraction and partial absorption depending on the nature of in optical density - then part of light is reflected and the rest is refracted, neglecting absorption. We note from Fig (3-3) that each of the incident ray, reflected ray and refracted incidence all lie in one plane perpendicular to the separating surface. In the case of reflection : the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection In the case of refraction : the ratio between the sine of the angle of incidence in the first medium to the sine of the angle of refraction in the second medium is equal to the ratio

We have seen before that sound has a wave nature. It propagates from a source causing
mechanical waves in the medium. Light also has a wave nature. It is subject to the laws of
reflection, refraction, interference and diffraction. But light is different from sound in that it does not require a medium to propagate in. Light is part of an extensive range of waves
called electromagnetic waves, which all travel at a constant speed in space equal to 3 x 108 m/s, while varying in frequency. This range of waves is called the electromagnetic spectrum
Chapter 3:
(Fig 3-1). It includes, for example, radio waves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet,
X- rays and Gamma rays. They all share common features. They are all transverse
electromagnetic waves, but of different frequencies (and wavelengths).
Electromagnetic waves consist of time varying electric and magnetic fields. Both
oscillate at equal frequency at the same phase, and are perpendicular to each other and to the direction of propagation (Fig 3-2), hence called transverse waves.

When a monochromatic light falls on a circular aperture in a screen, we expect that light should form a circular bright spot on an observation screen, considering that light propagates in straight lines.

In general, diffraction is evident when the wavelength of the wave is comparable to the dimensions of the aperture, and vice versa (Fig 3-15). In fact, there is no big difference between the mechanisms of interference and diffraction.

Diffraction places a limit on resolving details in an image. This limit is called the limit of resolution. If we have two point sources, and light is emitted from each through a circular aperture, then each source forms separate fringes. When the distance between the two sources decreases, the fringes get closer, and it becomes difficult to identify one from the other. It is found that the angle between the centers of the two fringes under this condition is given by the approximate relation ∆θ = λ , where D is the aperture diameter. D Thus, the ability to resolve two small objects is inversely proportional to the aperture diameter and directly to the wavelength (Fig 3-19). In the case of a microscope, the lens takes the place of the aperture and the wavelength limits the ability of the microscope to distinguish between small objects. As λ decreases, we can discern details that were not seen before. This is the advantage of the electron microscope (Chapter 12).

Light as a wave motion Unit 1: Waves
From above, we conclude that light 1) propagates in straight lines . 2) reflects according to the laws of reflection . 3) refracts according to the laws of refraction . 4) light interferes, and as a result, light intensity increases in certain positions (bright fringes)and diminishes to zero in other positions (dark fringes). 5) light diffracts if obstructed by an obstacle . These are the same general properties of waves. Hence, light is a wave motion
Total reflection and the critical angle
When a light ray travels from an optically dense medium (as water or glass) to a less dense medium (as air), then the refracted ray deviates away from the normal (Fig 3-20). As the angle of incidence increases in the more dense medium (of high absolute refractive index), the refraction angle in the less dense medium (of low absolute refractive index) increases.

The Bear’s fur
The bear’s fur does not provide the bear with thermal isolation only, but the fur hairs are massive optical fibers which reflect ultraviolet rays. The fur appears white (Fig 3-26). because visible light reflects inside the hollow transparent optical fibers, while the skin itself absorbs all rays reaching it. Therefore, it is actually black.

The critical angle between glass (refractive index 1.5) and air is 42˚. Therefore, a glass prism whose angles are 90˚, 45˚, 45˚ is used to change the path of the rays by 90˚ or 180˚. Such a prism may be used in optical instruments, as periscopes in submarines and binoculars in the field (Fig 3-27).

A reflecting prism
Prisms are better for this purpose than reflecting surfaces, first, because light totally
reflects from such a prism, while it is seldom to find a metallic reflecting surface whose efficiency is 100%. Secondly, a metallic surface eventually loses its luster,and hence its ability to reflect decreases. This does not happen in a prism. The surface at which light rays fall on a prism or the surface from which the rays emerge may be coated with non reflective layer of material like cryolite (Aluminum fluoride and magnesium fluoride) whose refractive index is less than that of glass, to avoid any reflection losses on the prism, even little as they are.

so the minimum angle of deviation changes by changing the

The ratio of density of any material to that of water at the same temperature is called the relative density of the material (no units). The relative density of a material, is equal to : =
the density of the material at a certain temperature the density of water at the same temperature
(4 - 2)
= the mass of a certain volume of matter at a certain temperature the mass of the same volume of water at the same temperature
Applications to density
1)Measuring density is of great importance in analysis, such as measuring the density of the electrolyte in a car battery. When the battery is discharged, the density of the electrolyte (dilute sulfuric acid) is low due to chemical reaction with the lead plates and the formation of lead sulfate. When the battery is recharged, the sulfate is loosened from the lead plates and go back to the electrolyte, and the density increases once more. Thus, measuring the density indicates how well the battery is charged.

The force acting on the plate x is the weight of the column of the liquid whose height is h and whose cross section is A.

Pressure at a point inside a liquid and its measurement. If you push a piece of foam under water and let it go, it will rise and float. This indicates that water pushes the immersed foam by an upward force. This force is due to the pressure difference across this piece of foam. At any point inside a liquid, the pressure acts in any direction. The direction of the force on any surface is normal to that surface. The pressure on a body is the same as the pressure on a volume of the liquid that has the same shape of the body in case this body were removed. In other words, the liquid occupying the same size which a body would occupy is PdA PdA
PdA a) pressure inside a liquid is perpendicular to any surface inside the liquid
b) pressure is perpendicular to the surface of an immersed body at every point

If we increase the pressure on the piston by an amount ∆P, by placing an additional weight on the piston. We note that the piston does not move inside because the liquid is incompressible. But the pressure underneath the Fig (4-13) piston must increase in turn by ∆P. This raises the pressure at Increase of weight on the piston increases the point A by ∆P. This make the pressure P =P1 + ρgh + ∆ P . pressure in the liquid Pascal formulated this result as follows : When pressure is applied on a liquid enclosed in a container, the pressure is transmitted in full to all parts of the liquid as well as to the walls of the container. This is known as Pascal’s principle or Pascal’s rule.
Application to Pascal’s rule : hydraulic Press The hydraulic press (Fig 4 – 14) consists of a small piston whose cross sectional area is “a” and a large piston whose cross sectional area is “A”. The space between the two pistons is filled with an appropriate liquid. cross sectional area a

Applications to Pascal’s rule 1) The hydraulic brake in a car uses Pascal’s rule as the braking system uses a brake fluid. Upon pushing on the brake pedal with
a small force and a relativeley long stroke (distance), the
pressure is transmitted in the master brake cylinder, hence, onto
the liquid and the whole hydraulic line, then to the piston of the wheel cylinder outwardly, and finally to the brake shoes and the
brake drum. A force of friction results, which eventually stops the car. This type of brakes is called drum brake (rear brake) (Fig

1) Horizontal forces cancel each other out , because each two opposite forces are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. 2) As to forces in the vertical direction, we find that the weight of the liquid enclosed in volume Vol in which (Fg) = Vol ρg acts downwards. Since this liquid is static, the liquid must exert L on the enclosed liquid an equal force Fb upwards , which is equal to the weight of the enclosed liquid. This force results from the difference of the pressure on the upper and lower surfaces of the parallepiped which is ∆P x A

Buoyancy and Archimedes’ Principle
We are familiar with the following observations: 1)An object can be easily lifted if immersed under water level, whereas it might be difficult to lift at in air. 2) A piece of foam floats when immersed in water. 3) An iron nail sinks in water while a large steel ship floats. 4) Balloons filled with helium rise up. We can interpret the above observations as follows : When an object is immersed under the liquid surface then the object exerts a force on the liquid. Consequently, the fluid (liquid or gas) pushes back by an equal and opposite force (Newton’s third law). This force is called buoyancy. It acts in all directions,but the net effect is upwards. The buoyancy is given by the weight of the liquid displaced by the immersed body. To show this, let us imagine the existence of a volume Vol of the Fig (4-22a) liquid as a virtual parallepiped whose cross sectional area is Archimedes’ rule considering A and height h.This parallepiped is acted upon by forces in all a virtual parallepiped directions (Fig 4 – 22 A). This part of the liquid (like any other part of stable liquid) does not move, so it is in equilibrium:
Archimedes’ rule and Newton’s law
Chapter 4: Hydrostatics
The immersed body replaces an equal size of the liquid. Because liquids are incompressible, such a body displaces a volume of the liquid equal to the volume of the immersed body (or part of it that is immersed). This displaced liquid acts as a mass placed on the surface of the liquid. Its weight presses on the surface of the liquid. Thus, the pressure on each point of the liquid increases by this amount. Because we calculate the buoyancy on the body as the difference between two forces acting on the surface of the immersed body, then this difference stays the same. Hence, buoyancy on the immersed body is unchanged by the displacement. It is equal to the weight of the displaced liquid (Fig 4 – 12). We can understand what happens as that the weight of the immersed body acts on the liquid as a whole, then the liquid acts back with buoyancy as a reaction equal in magnitude and opposite in direction (Newton’s third law). In the case when the weight balances out with buoyancy, we have equilibrium, and the body remains suspended in the liquid. If the weight of the body exceeds buoyancy, the body sinks to the bottom where it settles there. If the weight of the body is less than buoyancy, the body floats on top of the surface where it settles afloat, while the weight of the displaced liquid whose volume is equal to the volume of the immersed part of the body, which is then equal to the weight of the floating body.

difference between the body’s weight in air and the buoyancy of the liquid (Fg)s = (Fg)s - Fb where (Fg)s is the weight of the body while totally immersed in the liquid, (Fg)s is its weight in air and Fb is the buoyancy (Fig 4 – 24). Concluding from above, we may formulate Archimedes’ principle as follows: A body partially or fully immersed in a fluid (liquid or gas) is pushed upwards by a force equal to the weight of the volume of the fluid displaced partially or fully by the body.

The story of Archimedes and the crown Archimedes was one of the most celebrated scientists of Ancient Greece. There is an interesting story of Archimedes’ discovery of his rule. When Heron-king of Syracuse (one of ancient Greek cities)- doubted that his new crown might not have been made of pure gold, he summoned Archimedes to seek his counsel as to whether or not the crown was rigged, without destroying the crown of course. Archimedes was first at a loss. But one day, he was bathing in a tub. He noticed that as he dipped himself in the tub the water level rose.
concluded that the maker cheated and used less dense and hence cheaper materials. It is often told that Archimedes was euphoric with joy as he got this idea. He came out from the tub, and ran out naked shouting: “Eureka Eureka (I found it – I found it)". This expression

But it is not mandatory that the volume of the displaced gas is equal to the volume of the immersed body, since gases are compressible. But buoyancy must be equal to the weight of the displaced gas. This is why balloons filled with helium rise up (Fig 4 – 27).

Application to buoyancy
1) Hydrotherapy technique is prescribed to patients who are unable to lift limbs because of disease or injury in the associated muscles or joints. When a body is immersed in water it becomes, in effect, nearly weightless. As a result, the force required to move the limb is greatly reduced, and the therapeutic exercise becomes possible. 2) Weightlessness experiments may involve immersion in containers filled with a liquid whose concentration is adjusted so that buoyancy cancels out the weight. 3) A submarine floats when its tanks are filled with air, and submerges when those tanks are filled with water. Fish and Wales also fill air sacs with air to enable them to float, and empty them from air when they go under. 4) A diver breathes air under compression when diving to shallow depths, to equate the pressure. At larger depths, the diver adjusts the pressure in the diving suit to control the buoyancy force (Fig 4 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 26).

Why does a ship float while an iron nail sinks ?
It is noted that a ship is of large mass but contains large voids and spaces, which cause it to displace plenty of water, hence large buoyancy pushes the ship upwards. Part of the ship (hull) remains submerged in water for the ship to be afloat. This submerged part is what causes the displacement of water of an equal volume causing buoyancy to balance out with the weight of the ship (4 – 29). As the cargo on the ship increases, the submerged part increases to build up more buoyancy enough to keep the ship afloat (Fig 4 – 30a). The iron nail sinks because the buoyancy force on it is small due to its small volume (Fig 4 – 30 b).

3) The flow is irrotational, i.e., there is no vortex motion. 4)If no forces of friction exist between the layers of the liquid the flow is nonviscous .If there is friction it is viscous. If the velocity of flow of a liquid exceeds a certain limit, steady
flow changes to turbulent flow, which is characterized by the existence of vortices (Fig 5–2). The same thing happens to gases as a result of diffusion from a small space to a large space or from high pressure to low pressure (Fig 5 – 3).
Rate of flow and the continuity equation
3) the velocity of the liquid flow at any point in the tube does not change with time. There is a relation that ties the rate of flow of the liquid with its velocity and cross sectional area. Fig (5-2) This relation is called the continuity equation. To Vortices due to turbulent understand what the continuity equation entails, we choose flow or a violent motion of a body through a liquid two perpendicular planes normal to the streamlines at the two sections (Fig 5 - 4). The cross sectional area at the first plane is A1 and the cross sectional area at the second plane is A2. The volume rate of flow is the volume of the liquid flowing through area A1 in unit time.We have Qv = A1v1, where v1 is the velocity of the liquid at section A1. The mass of the liquid (of density ρ) flowing in unit time is called the mass rate of flow Qm ,which is given by:

Hydrodynamics
Overview Hydrodynamics (Fluid dynamics) deals, with fluids in motion. We must distinguish between two types of fluid motion, steady flow and turbulent flow.
Steady flow
If a liquid moves such that its adjacent layers slide with respect to each other smoothly, we describe the motion as a laminar flow or a streamline (steady) flow. In this type of flow, particles of the liquid follow continuous paths called streamlines.Thus, we may visualize the liquid as if it is in a real or virtual tube containing a flux of streamlines representing the paths of the different particles of the liquid (Fig 5 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 1). These streamlines do not intersect, and the tangent at any point along the streamline determines the direction of the instantaneous velocity of each particle of the liquid at that point. The number of streamlines crossing perpendicularly a unit area at a point (density of streamlines) expresses the velocity of flow of the liquid at that point. Therefore, streamlines cram up at points of high velocity and keep apart at points of low velocity.
Conditions of Steady Flow
1)The rate of flow of the liquid is constant along its path, since the liquid is incompressible and the density of the liquid is independent of distance or time.

A1 v1= A2 v2

Model for deducing the continuity equation
This is the continuity equation leading to
Vv11 A 2 = Vv22 A 1 (5-2) From this relation, we see that the velocity of the liquid at any point in the tube is
inversely proportional to the cross sectional area of the tube at that point. The liquid flows slowly where the cross sectional area A1 is large and flows rapidly, when the cross sectional
area A2 is small (Fig 5 – 5). To understand the continuity equation better, we consider a small amount of liquid ∆m = ρ∆V , where ∆V = A ∆x ,where ∆x is the distance traveled by the ol

liquid in time ∆t . Thus, ∆x1 = v1 ∆t. Then ∆Vol = A1v1 ∆t. This same value must emerge from the other side of the tube, since the liquid is incompressible ,i.e, ∆Vol = A2v2 ∆t . Thus, we
must emphasize that the rate of flow of the liquid is a volume rate Qv (m3/s), or a mass rate of
flow (kg/s). Both of these rates are constant for any cross section. This is called the conservation of mass, which leads to the continuity equation. A2 A1

veins, down to capillaries (Fig 5â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 8) .The heart pumps blood through this network at a rate of 5 liters per minute (or 8.33x10-5 m3/s) with a normal pulse rate of 70 pulse per minute.
The pumping rate may reach 25 liters per minute or 180 pulse per minute with excessive activity .Calculating the velocity of flow in the aorta (2 cm diameter),we find that the blood
velocity is 26.5 cm/s (check the calculation). If we add up all the capillaries, we find that the collective cross section is 0.25m2 (what is the velocity?). brain lungs

The pressure in the air bag is decreased gradually, until the pressure exerted by the heart is sufficient to push the blood through, and open up the brachial artery. The sudden flow of the blood in the nearly closed artery causes a turbulent flow which produces a hiss, which the doctor can hear with the stethoscope, while the doctor monitors the reading on the manometer in mm Hg. This reading is the systolic pressure (normally

If the systolic pressure exceeds 150 mm Hg, the patient has hypertension which might cause brain hemorrhage, and hence stroke. If the diastolic pressure exceeds 90 mm Hg, the heart-which is supposedly then at rest -has extra pressure, causing fatigue and eventually fibrosis in the heart muscle, leading to heart failure or

force is due to the adhesive forces between the molecules of the solid surface and the stationary plate. Similarly, the upper layer moves at the same velocity of the upper plate.
b) The existence of another friction (shear) force between each liquid layer and the adjacent one, which resists the sliding of the liquid layers with respect to each other. This
produces a relative change in velocity between any two adjacent layers. Thus, viscosity is the property responsible for resisting the relative motion of liquid layers .This type of
flow is called nonturblent viscous laminar flow (or viscous steady flow), since no
vortices occur.

a) Water is easier to stir, which means that water resistance to the glass rod is less than the resistance of honey.
b) The motion in honey stops almost immediately after we remove the rod, while it continues for a little while longer in water .
3) We take two long similar measuring cylinders and fill them to the end, one with water and
the other with glycerine. Then , take two similar steal balls and drop one in each liquid, and record the time each ball takes in each liquid to hit the bottom. We observe that the time in water is less. Thus, the glycerine resistance to the ball motion is greater .
We, thus, conclude :1) Some liquids such as water and alcohol offer little resistance to the motion of a body in them, and are easy to flow. We say they have low viscosity
2) Other liquids such as honey and glycerine are not as easy to move through ,i.e.,they offer high resistance to body motion, and are said to have high viscosity.
To interpret viscosity, imagine layers of liquid trapped between two parallel plates, one
stationary and the other moving with velocity v (Fig 5 â&#x20AC;&#x201C;6). The liquid layer next to the stationary plate is stationary, while the layer next to the moving plate is moving at v. The layers in between move at velocities varying from o to v. The reason for this is as follow :

Another property is capillarity, where molecules of the container pull the molecules of the liquid by forces of adhesion. The surface of the liquid is curved due to the surface tension in the capillary. This property is responsible for drawing water in the stem of plants through the capillaries, so that the plant can obtain its water and nutrients from the soil and even out to the foliage.

Applications of Viscosity 1-Lubrication : Metallic parts in machines have to be lubricated from time to time. This process leads to:
a) reduction of heat generated by friction.
b) protecting machine parts from corrosion (wear).
Lubrication is carried out using highly viscous liquids. If we use water (low viscosity), it will soon seep away or sputter from the machine parts due its low adhesive forces. Therefore, we must use liquids with high adhesive (high viscosity), so they remain in contact with the moving machine parts.
2-Moving vehicles
When a car attains its maximum speed, the total work done by the machine which is supplied by the burnt fuel, acts most of the time against air resistance and the forces of friction between the tires and the road. At relatively low and medium velocities, air resistance to moving bodies resulting from air viscosity is directly proportional to the velocity of the moving body. When the velocity exceeds a certain limit, then the air resistance is proportional to the square velocity rather than the velocity,leading to a noticeable increase in fuel consumption. Therefore, it is advisable not to exceed such a limit ( 80 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 90 km/h )
3-In medicine :
Blood precipitation rate : when a ball undergoes a free fall in a liquid, it is under three forces : its weight, buoyancy of the liquid and friction between the ball and the liquid due to viscosity. It is found that such a ball attains a final velocity which increase with its radius.
This is applied in medicine by taking a blood sample and measuring its precipitation rate. The doctor may then decide if the size of red blood cells is normal or not. In the case of rheumatic fever and gout, red blood cells adhere together, and therefore, their volume and radius increase and the sedimentation ( precipitation ) rate increases. In the case of anemia, the precipitation rate is below normal, since the red cells break up. Hence, their volume and radius decrease .

When a graduated cylinder filled with ammonia gas is placed upside down on another cylinder filled with hydrogen chloride gas (Fig 6-2), a white cloud of ammonium chloride is formed, then it grows and diffuses until it occupies all the space within the two cylinders. This can be explained as follows. Hydrogen chloride gas molecules - in spite of their higher density - diffuse upwards, through spaces separating ammonia gas molecules, where

Overview
It can be shown that gas molecules are in continuous random motion called Brownian
motion as follows:
Heat
If we examine candle smoke through the microscope,we notice that the smoke
particles move randomly. The motion of the carbon particles is caIled Brownian motion, after Brown, an English botanist who discovered for the first time in 1827 that tiny pollen grains suspended in water moved randomly.

Motion of molecules materials
Gas Laws
Interpretation of Brownian motion
Air (gas) molecules move in a haphazard (random) motion in all directions with
different velocities. During their motion, they collide with each other and collide with smoke particles. Due to the resultant force on a smoke particle, it will move in a certain
direction through a short distance and so on, always moving, colliding, and changing
direction. The reason for this is that the gas molecules are in a free motion (due to heat) and in constant collision, so they change their direction randomly (Fig 6-1).

downwards through spaces separating hydrogen chloride gas molecules, where they combine forming ammonium chloride molecules, which diffuse to fill the lower cylinder. Accordingly, we can conclude that there are large spacings separating the gas molecules, known as intermolecular spacings. This is to be tied to the compressibility of gases. These large intermolecular spacings allow gas molecules to get packed together when pressed.

Thus, a volume occupied by a gas decreases with increased pressure.

In order to make a full study of the behavior of a gas, as regards volume, temperature and pressure, three separate experiments have to be carried out to investigate the effect of each pair, respectively, i.e., we study the relation between two variables only, keeping the third constant.These experiments are 1- The relation between the volume and pressure at constant temperature (Boyleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s law).

The capillary tube (B) is connected to a mercury reservoir (C) by means of a rubber tube. We follow the following procedures: 1- Determine the atmospheric pressure (Pa) using a barometer.
2- Pour mercury in (A) to 1/7 of its volume to compensate for the increase in its volume when heated, so that the volume of the remaining part is still constant, (the volume
Chapter 6:
expansion coefficient of mercury is seven times the volume expansion coefficient of glass). 3- Submerge reservoir (A) in a beaker filled with water and pour mercury in the free end (C), until it rises in the other branch to mark (X). 4- Heat water in the vessel to the boiling point and wait until the temperature settles, and the mercury level in the branch connected to the reservoir stops decreasing.

5- Move the free end (C) upwards until the the mercury level in the other branch rises to the same mark X. Then, measure the difference in height between the mercury levels in the two branches (h). From this, determine the pressure of the enclosed air P, which is equal to the atmospheric pressure (cm Hg) plus h, i.e., P=Pa+h
6- Move the branch (C) downwards and stop heating. Then let the reservoir cool down to nearly 90Ë&#x161;C. Then move the branch (C) upwards until the mercury level in the branch connected to the reservoir rises to mark X.

Different quantities of substances - even as small as 1cm3 - contain a huge number of atoms or molecules. It is convenient to express such numbers in terms of a unit called mole or gram mole. It is agreed upon that a mole (or gram mole) of any substance contains the number of atoms or molecules equal to the number of atoms in 12 gram of carbon .It is found experimentally that 12 gram of carbon contains 6.023x1023 carbon measuring unit of a quantity of matter in the international system of units. Although the original definition of mole was associated with carbon, yet the concept of the mole is generalized to any ensemble of particles, such that one mole contains Avogadro’s number of these particles. Thus, a mole of iron contains 6.023 x 1023 iron atom, and one mole of
water contains 6.023 x 1023 water molecules. In general, the mass of one mole of any
substance equals numerically the atomic or molecular mass (in grams) of this substance, i.e., the mass of one mole of carbon is 12 gram, one mole of oxygen is 32 gram and one mole of water is 18 gram. Each of these quantities contains the same number of atoms or molecules, which is Avogadro’s number. Thus, the mole of any substance is defined as the quantity of this substance in grams, which equals the atomic or molecular mass of the substance. Oxygen gas has atomic mass 16, i.e the molecular mass of a mole of Oxygen is 32. Avogadro’s law

The KineticTheory of Gases
Overview
To study the behavior of gases and explain their different laws, one can make use of the kinetic theory of gases. This theory is based on postulates given below: 1) A gas is composed of molecules which we shall regard as very minute perfectly elastic spheres obeying Newtonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s law of motion. 2) The intermolecular distances are relatively large, hence, the volume of the gas molecules is negligible compared to the volume occupied by the gas itself(the volume of the container). 3) The forces of intermolecular attraction between the gas molecules are very weak due to the large intermolecular distances, so they are negligible. Therefore, the potential energy of the molecules is zero. This means that the gas molecules do not interact with each other. Thus, the mean distances which a molecule moves before colliding with another (called mean free path) does not depend on the mass or type of molecule, and is statistically the same for all gases under the same conditions. Therefore, a certain volume of any gas at S.T.P. contains the same number of molecules regardless of the gas type. 4) Gas molecules are in continuous random motion due to the collisions between each other and due to their collisions with the walls of the container. The molecules move between any two successive collisions in straight lines. 5) The collisions between the gas molecules are perfectly elastic, i.e., the total kinetic energy of the gas molecules remains constant before and after the collisions. 6) The gas is in thermal equilibrium state with the walls of its container.

on the level of the molecules is called the microscopic point of view. This has led to the kinetic theory of gases. We start by the following postulates: 1) A gas contains a huge number of molecules in random motion. 2) The size of the molecule is much smaller than the total volume of the gas. lost. 4) Interactive forces among the molecules are negligible, except at collision. Hence, there is no potential energy involved. 5) Molecules obey Newtonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s laws. Consider one of the gas molecules in a box in the form of a cube whose side is l (Fig 7-1). The mass of the molecule is m, its average velocity is v and the x component of velocity is vx. The pressure exerted by the gas on the walls
of the box originates from the collision of the gas molecules with the walls. The
pressure P is the force per unit area P = F/A, where A= l2, and F is the force which the molecule applies to the wall. The linear momentum is PL .The change in the linear momentum for a molecule 6PL is the difference between the linear momentum before and after collision with the wall: F=
6P L 6t
Because the collision is elastic, the velocity after collision in the x direction is -vx . The change
in linear momentum transmitted to the wall 6PL is opposite to the change in the linear

0˚C and 1 Atm (S.T.P) occupies a volume of 22.4 liters. Therefore, each mole of any gas contains the same number of molecules at S.T.P. This number is given by NA = 6.023 x 1023 molecules/Mole. To understand this, let us say we have NA molecules of oxygen (molecular mass is 32 x mH where mH is the mass of the hydrogen atom). The Mass of one mole of oxygen is mH x 32 x NA. Thus, the mass is a constant (NAmH) times 32. If we have NA hydrogen molecules, then their mass is 2 x (NAmH). In other words, 32 gram oxygen (one mole oxygen) and 2 gram hydrogen (one mole hydrogen) have the same number of molecules (NA). Also, at the same temperature and pressure, the interatomic or intermolecular distances are the same on average, due to the random motion of gas molecules and non existence of attractive forces or potential energy between them, which are the postulates of the perfect gas. Consequently, any mole of any gas at S.T.P. occupies the same volume, which is found experimentally to be 22.4 liters. Gas density:
Knowing the number of molecules (N) in a given volume of gas Vol and the mass of one
molecule(m), we can calculate the density of the gas (ρ) from the relation: ρ=

From equations (7-7) and (7-8) ,
This relation ties the macroscopic theory of a gas to the microscopic model .It is to be noted that temperature T (a macroscopic quantity) measures the average kinetic energy of a molecule (a microscopic quantity). As the temperature increases, the kinetic energy increases. It is to be noted from equation (7-9) that each direction of motion (dimension or degree
of freedom) has associated with kinetic energy 12 kT. In fact this relation does not apply
solely to gas molecules but also to electrons in a metal , and even to any ensemble of particles in random motion. We might be tempted to believe that at T = 0 ˚K, the kinetic energy, and hence the velocity is zero, i.e., everything stops at absolute zero. In reality, we cannot claim so, because at absolute zero the equations of the ideal gas are no longer valid. It is known that gases are transformed in turn to liquids at low temperatures (chapter 8). Einstein showed that even at absolute zero, there is still energy called rest energy. In such a case, the above equations become inapplicable.

Low temperatures may be achieved by drawing or removing energy out of the matter,
This can be done in various ways. The simplest is to establish contact with another precooled substance. Ice or dry ice ( solid CO2) or liquid air may be used. Temperatures of
77°K ( liquid nitrogen temperature) have been widely used. Liquid helium temperature (4.2°K) has even been reached . From the concept of latent heat of vaporization, the liquid
gas draws energy from the material to be cooled in order for the liquid gas to evaporate to be gaseous again. This results in the cooling of the substance required.
Some liquid gases have the property of superfluidity, i.e., they
can flow without resistance (or without friction) at temperatures
close to obsolute zero. Helium liquid has this property. In other words, it loses viscosity completely at such low temperatures. It can even flow upwards uninterruptedly against gravity or friction along
the walls of its container (Fig 8–1). It also has very low specific heat and is one of the best thermal conductors.

Cryogenics (Low Temperature Physics)
Overview Cryogenics (or low temperature physics) is a branch of physics dealing with the cases when temperature approaches absolute zero (-237°C) or 0˚K . The temperature scale used in low temperature physics is the Kelvin temperature scale (the absolute temperature scale) which is based on the behavior of the ideal gas.
Van Der Waals’ Effect: One of the postulates of the kinetic theory of gases upon
which the ideal gas laws are based is neglecting the interactive (attractive) forces among the molecules of the gas, as well as
neglecting the size or the volume of the gas molecule in comparison with the volume of the container. The properties of
a real gas differ from those of the ideal gas, as the gas density increases. Interaction among gas molecules can no longer be neglected. This interaction is called van der Waals’ effect . It is
unlike chemical interaction between atoms leading to the
Van der Waals
formation of molecules. The attractive forces among the molecules become important as they lead to the liquefaction of the gas under high pressure. Due to the high pressure, van
der Waals’ interaction takes over, where two molecules approaching each other attract together, and eventually attract more molecules, until the gas switches to the condensed state of matter (liquid or even solid).
This mechanism explains the liquefaction of gases, which has led to achieving very low
temperatures approaching near absolute zero.

a thermos bottle (Fig 8–2). It is used to store liquid nitrogen (boiling point 77°K) and liquid oxygen (boiling point 90°K). As to helium (boiling point 4.2° K and low specific heat), it is stored in a double Dewar’s flask, one inside the other. The spacing between the two flasks is filled with liquid nitrogen (due to the low specific heat and boiling point of helium).
How does a refrigerator work ? From the law of conservation of energy, if a gas acquires thermal energy Qth it is used up
in one of two ways:
1) an increase in internal energy U which is manifested by an increase in temperature. 2) work done by the gas molecules W. There are two types of heat transfer. One is at constant temperature with the surroundings, i.e. , at constant internal energy (6U = 0). In this case, the acquired energy is transformed in full into mechanical work done by the gas. This is called an isothermal process. The second type is performed when the gas is thermally isolated with its surroundings. So, it can neither acquire nor lose heat. In this case, Qth = 0 The work done by the gas must be at the expense of its internal energy. If W is positive, the gas does the work and the internal energy decreases (6U is
negative), i.e., the gas cools down. If work is done on the gas, then W is negative, so the internal energy increases and its temperature rises. The process when Qth = 0 (W is
positive or negative) is called adiabatic process. A refrigerator is an application to both isothermal and adiabatic processes , and the coolant (refrigerant) or the cryogenic liquid used is freon (boiling point- 30°C) or its substitutes.
resistance vanishes. This occurs at a critical (transitional)
temperature (Fig 8â&#x20AC;&#x201C;4). Materials having this property are called superconductors. If current happens to flow in a superconductor, it continues to flow even if the voltage
difference is removed. It will continue to flow for years, as it is met by nearly zero resistance.

Such a metal will not be heated by current flow. No energy is consumed in compensating electrical energy
Superconductivity
Superconductors can be used to pick up weak wireless signals. Therefore, they are used in the electric circuits of satellites. It is interesting to notice that if a permanent magnet is placed over a disk of a superconducting material, then the current in the superconductor generates a magnetic field, which is always repulsive with the external magnet, so the permanent magnet remains hanging in the air. This is called Meissner effect (Fig 8 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 5).

through a condenser (an apparatus outside the refrigerator). Heat exchange occurs in which
heat energy in the gas is radiated out to the surroundings being at a lower temperature. The high pressured gas condenses and becomes a liquid at constant temperature (isothermal
process). The liquid refrigerant is returned to the refrigerator once more. Before it enters into the freezer compartment, the refrigerant is forced to expand in an adiabatic process
through the expansion valve. In this case, the liquid molecules diffuse from a high pressure region into a low pressure region. The refrigerantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s volume increases and does work in
doing so against the spring in the valve. Thus, work is done at the expense of the internal
energy of the refrigerant. Since no external heat exchange is allowed (Qth= 0 or W is positive so â&#x2C6;&#x2020;U is negative). The internal energy of the liquid decreases so does its temperature. Thus, the refrigerant is now back to be a liquid as it was when we started the
cycle. The cycle repeats. The final result is the expulsion of thermal energy from the cabin to the condenser outside the refrigerator. Therefore, the refrigerator cools down. Of course,
the refrigerator must be well insulated. It should be noted that the electric energy needed by
the refrigerator throughout the cycle is the energy consumed in operating the piston. The internal energy one throughout complete cycle must remain unchanged (â&#x2C6;&#x2020;Unet = 0). The
compressor is, thus, a heat pump that transfers the heat from the refrigerator to the outside
through the work done by the compressor Wnet. Thus, the electric energy E required for
operation:

Magnetic resonance imaging ( MRI )
One of the most popular and safest tools in medical diagnosis nowadays is magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). In this method, a magnetic field affects the nuclei of hydrogen in the body. Exciting these nuclei with an alternating magnetic field, waves are radiated from the excited hydrogen nuclei, which are indicative of water ( hydrogen ) localization (oedemas and tumors).An internal image of the body can be made (Fig 8â&#x20AC;&#x201C;7), which helps identify such lumps. Superconducting magnets are used to counteract the huge energy losses in normal magnets, hence heating effects are reduced.

The reason for this is that superconductors belong to a class of materials called diamagnetic materials in which the magnetic field inside the material is zero. Therefore, an external magnet induces current in the superconductor which creates a magnetic field inside the superconductor in an opposite direction, so that the net magnetic field inside the superconductor is zero . This phenomenon has been put to use by designing a high speed (magnetically levitated) train. The train carries coils of a superconducting material. When the train moves, it induces current in fixed coils, which produces a magnetic field repelling the inducing field. The train is raised above the rails for a few centimeters . This levitation eliminates friction (Fig 8 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 6), hence increases the train velocity. The levitated train may reach a velocity of 225 km/h . The discovery of room temperature superconductive materials will lead to expansion in the applications of superconductivity, since no cooling is then needed . Superconductors are also used in electric power plants and in transmission lines, where voltage losses are eliminated due to the vanishing resistance .

Resistors are connected in series to obtain a higher resistance (Fig9–1). The equivalent resistance of a group of resistors connected in series can be obtained in connecting these resistors in an electric circuit comprising a battery,an ammeter,a rheostat (variable resistor) and a switch (Fig 9-2). The circuit is closed and the rheostat is adjusted so that an appropriate current I is passed. The voltage difference across each resistor is measured (V1
across R1, V2 across R2, V3 across R3) as well as the total voltage (V), which is equal to the

From this relation, we see that as I is decreased gradually in the circuit shown (Fig 9– 5),
-by decreasing the external resistance R- the voltage difference across the source increases.
When the current vanishes, the voltage difference across the source becomes equal to the
emf of the source. Hence, we may define the emf of a source as the voltage difference across it when the current ceases to flow in the circuit.

Magnetic Effects of Electric Current and Measuring Instruments
In 1819, Hans Christian Oersted- a Danish physicist-brought a compass near a wire carrying an electric current. He noticed that the compass was deflected. When he turned the current off, the compass assumed its original position. The deflection of the compasswhile current was flowing through the wire- indicated that it was being acted upon by an external magnetic field.This discovery started a chain of events that has helped shape our industrial civilization. In this unit we are going to study the magnetic field of current- carrying conductors in the form of: a) a straight wire. b) a circular loop. c) a solenoid.
Magnetic field due to current in a straight wire: We can examine the pattern of the flux density surrounding a long straight wire carrying a direct current using iron filings sprinkled on a paper surrounding the wire in a vertical position.It will be noted that they become aligned in concentric circles around the wire, as shown in Fig (10-1).

Overview
Oersted
203
The figure shows that the circular magnetic flux lines are closer together near the wire
and farther apart from each other as the distance from the wire increases. Unit 4: Dynamic Electricity Chapter 10: Magnetic Effects of Electric Current and Measuring Instruments
As the electric current in the wire increases, the iron filings rearrange themselves after
gently tapping the board such that the concentric circles become more crowded.
This indicates that the magnetic field due to the electric current passing through a
straight wire increases with increasing the current intensity and vice verse.
The magnetic flux density β measured in Weber/m2 or Tesla(B = φm where φm is the A magnetic flux, A is the area) a point near a long straight wire carrying current I can be determined using the formula:
B= µI 2 /d
This relation is called Ampere's circuital law, where d is the normal distance between the point and the wire, and µ is the magnetic permeability of the medium (in air it is 4π
x 10-7 Weber/Am). Thus, B is inversely proportional to d and directly proportional to I.
This is why it is advisable to live away from high voltage towers.
Ampere's right hand rule: To determine the direction of the magnetic field resulting from an electric current in a wire, imagine that you grasp the wire with your right hand such that the thumb points in the direction of the current. The rest of the fingers around the wire give the direction of the magnetic field due to the current (Fig 10-2).

To study the magnetic field due to a circular loop (or a coil),iron filings are sprinkled
on the board as shown in Fig (3 -10). Tapping it gently, the filings arrange themselves as Unit 4: Dynamic Electricity Chapter 10: Magnetic Effects of Electric Current and Measuring Instruments
shown in figure, from which we can notice that:
1. the flux lines near the center of the loop are no longer circular. 2. the magentic flux density changes from point to point.
3. the magnetic flux lines at the center of the loop are straight parallel lines
perpendicular to the plane of the coil. This means that the magnetic field in this region
is uniform. The flux density at the center of a circular loop of N turns and radius r carrying current
I is given by :
B= µ N I 2r
(10-2)
From this relation, the magnetic flux density at the center of a circular loop depends
on three parameters:
1. number of turns of the circular loop where B ∝ N.
2. current intensity passing through the circular loop where B ∝ I.
3. radius of circular loop where B ∝ 1r .
- Right-hand screw rule: To determine the direction of the magnetic field at the center of a circular loop or coil, imagine a righthand screw being screwed to tie along the wire in the direction of the current. The direction of fastening of the screw gives the direction of the magnetic flux at the center of the loop (Figs.10 -4, 10 -5 ) Thus, a circular loop carrying current acts as a magnetic dipole or a bar magnet. It is to be noted that no single poles exist in nature. They always exist in N - S pairs.
206
Magnetic field due to current in a solenoid: When an electric current is passed through a solenoid ( a long spiral or cylindrical coil) as Unit 4: Dynamic Electricity Chapter 10: Magnetic Effects of Electric Current and Measuring Instruments
shown in Fig(10-6), the resultant magnetic flux is very similar to that as a bar magnet. As shown in Fig(10-6A), the magnetic flux lines make a complete circuit inside and outside the coil,i.e., each line is a closed path. The side at which the flux emerges is the north pole, the other side where the magnetic flux reenters is the south pole. The magnetic flux density in the interior of a solenoid carrying an electric current depends on : 1) the current intensity passing through the coil where B∝ I. 2) the number of turns per unit length where B ∝ n :
a) field pattern
b) polarity of the field using

shaped (horse shoe) magnet. Its rotational motion is restrained by a pair of spiral control springs, which also serve as current leads to the coil. Depending upon the direction of
the current being measured, the coil and pointer rotate either in clockwise or counterclockwise direction. The permanent magnet's poles are curved so that the magnetic flux lines are radially directed. Thus, the magnetic flux density is constant and
perpendicular to the side of the rectangle irrespective of the angle of the coil. the deflection of the pointer is proportional to the current in the coil.
The current flows in the coil from the right side upwards, and emerges from the other
side. Then the magnetic force generates a torque which makes the coil rotate clockwise.
The pointer deflects until it settles at a certain reading when the torque is balanced with the spring torsion which is counterclockwise. Thus, at balance, we can read the current value. When the current is reversed, the pointer deflects in the opposite direction.

The DC ammeter
Placing the parallel shunt assures that the ammeter as a whole will have a very low resistance, which is necessary if the current in the circuit is to be unaltered after connecting the ammeter in series. Most of the current in the circuit passes through the shunt Rs, while only a small current Ig passes in the galvanometer coil Rg. If the maximum current to be measured is I, which is the full scale deflection (FSD), then
I = Ig + Is Is = I - Ig
Because Rs and Rg are connected in parallel, the voltage difference across each is the same. I s Rs = I g Rg I R Rs = g g . Is The two equations can be solved simultaneously to find Rs. Thus, Rs =

A circuit for calibrating an ohmmeter
Measuring a resistance depends on measuring the current passing through it by an
ammeter and the voltage drop across it by a voltmeter. If the current is I and the voltage drop is V, the resistance R from Ohm's law is R =V/I If the voltage is fixed and known, we may remove the voltmeter from the circuit and calibrate the galvanometer to give the value of the resistance directly (Fig10-15).As the resistance is increased, the current in the circuit decreases,and consequently, the galvanometer reading.The Ohmmeter shown (Fig10-15) is actually a microammeter which reads 400µA as a full scale deflection (FSD).Its resistance is 250Ω connected in series with 3000Ω, a variable resistance whose maximum value is 6565Ω, and a 1.5 V battery of negligible internal resistance.When we short circuit (sc) the terminals of the instrument (RX =0), current flows in the circuit.For this current to give FSD, the resistance 1.5 = 3750 Ω in the circuit must be: -6 400 x 10 The variable resistance must be adjusted to give FSD, when the variable resistance is 500 since 250+3000+500=3750Ω. Now, if the unknown resistance is introduced into the circuit, the current flowing will be less, and the pointer will deflect short of FSD.

voltage,it must be converted to a high-resistance instrument.The voltmeter must draw a negligible current, so that it will not affect the voltage drop to be measured.To do this,a large multiplier resistor is connected in series with the galvanometer as shown in Fig. (10-14).The voltmeter is connected parallel across the two points between which the voltage difference is to be measured. Let us call the resistance of the galvanometer coil Rg and the multiplier resistance Rm which is connected in series parrallel with Rg. The maximum current that passes through it is Ig, which is the current needed for the full
scale deflection (FSD) voltage V.
The voltage difference across the coil is :
Vg = Ig Rg
The maximum voltage drop to be measured is:
V = Ig Rg + Ig Rm = Vg + Ig Rm
Rm =
(10-8)
Example A galvanometer has an internal resistance of 0.1Ω and gives a full scale deflection
for a current of 1mA. Calculate the multiplier resistance necessary to convert this galvanometer to a voltmeter whose maximum range is 50V.
Solution
Vg = Ig Rg = 0.001 x 0.1 = 1 x 10-4 V Rm =
V - Vg 50 - 1 x 10-4 = 1 x 10-3 Ig = 49999.9 Ω
The total resistance of the voltmeter is : Rtotal = 49999.9 + 0.1 = 50000 Ω

Thus, we may calibrate the instrument in terms of the resistance to be measured. If Rx

This means that the maximum deflection corresponds to zero resistance (short circuit or sc). As the resistance increases, the deflection decreases. It is to be noted also that the scale is not linear. The spacings between the readings of the scale to the right are further apart than the readings to the left.

Faraday’s laws: From the above Faraday’s observations, one can conclude the following: 1) the relative motion between a conductor and a magnetic field in which there is time variation of the magnetic flux linked with the conductor, induces an electromotive force in the conductor. Its direction depends on the direction of motion of the conductor relative to the field. 2) the magnitude of the induced electromotive force is proportional to the rate by which the conductor cuts the lines of the magnetic flux linked with it, i.e., emf¡ _∝ 6 qm 6t where ∆φm is the variation in the magnetic flux intercepted by the conductor through the
time interval ∆t
3) the magnitude of the induced electromotive force is proportional to the number of turns N of the coil which cut (or link with) the magnetic flux., i.e., emf ∝ N
Thus, from the analysis of the above mentioned results, one can conclude the following relation: 6 qm emf¡ = - N (11 - 1) 6t
Unit 4 : Electricity Dynamic Elictricity and Electromagnetism Chapter 11: Electromagnetic Induction
the coil, a deflection of the pointer was noticed in the opposite direction. This phenomenon is called "electromagnetic induction". According to this phenomenon, an electromotive force and an electric current are induced in the coil, when the magnet is plunged into or removed from the coil. As a result, Faraday concluded that the induced electromotive force and also the induced electric current were generatd in the circuit as a result of the time variation of the magnetic flux linked with the coil during the motion of the magnet. Moreover, the action of the magnet is met by a reaction from the coil.If the magnet is plunged into the coil, the induced magnetic field acts in a way to oppose the motion of the magnet. If the magnet is pulled out, the induced magnetic field acts to retain (or keep) the magnet in. Faraday concluded that the induced emf and current were generated in the circuit as a result of the time variation of magnetic field lines as they cut the windings of the coil while the magnet was in motion.

Electromagnetic Induction
Overview It has been noticed that the passage of an electric current in a conductor produces a magnetic field. Soon after Oersted's discovery that magnetism could be produced by an electric current,a question arose, namely, could magnetic field produce an electric current ? This problem was addressed by Faraday through a series of experiments which led to one of the breakthroughs in the field of physics, namely, the discovery of electromagnetic induction. On the basis of such a discovery, the principle of operation and function of most of the electric equipment - such as the electrical generators (dynamos) and transformers depend.
Faradayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Experiment: Faraday made a cylindrical coil of insulated copper wire, such that the coil turns were separated from each other. He connected the two terminals of the coil to a sensitive galvanometer having its zero reading at the mid point of its graduated scale, as shown in Fig (11-1) . When Faraday plunged a magnet into the coil, he noticed that the pointer of the galvanometer was deflected momentarily in a certain direction. On removing the magnet from

above relation indicates that the direction of the induced etectromotive force or the induced current tends to oppose the cause producing it. This rule is known as Lenz's rule. Lenz’s rule The induced current must be in a direction such as to oppose the change producing it. Fig (11-2) illustrates a direct application of Lenz’s rule : The direction of the induced current in a straight wire: In one of his several experiments, Faraday showed that the induced current in a straight wire flowed in a direction perpendicular to the magnetic field. Many years later. Fleming concluded a simple rule: Fleming’s right hand rule Extend the thumb,pointer and the middle finger of the right hand, mutually perpendicular to each other. Let the pointer points to the direction of the field, and the thumb in the direction of motion, then the middle finger (with the thumb (motion)
rest of the fingers) will point to the direction of the induced current or voltage as shown in Fig (11-3).

where M is the coefficient of mutual induction (mutual inductance) of the two coils. Its unit is VsA-1 and is equivalent to what is calIed "Henry". Thus, the henry is the unit used to measure the inductance in general. The negative sign in equation (11-2) follows from Lenz's rule, namely, that the direction of the induced electromotive force (or the direction of the induced current) is such as to oppose the cause producing it. The coefficient of mutual inductanc between two coils depends on the following factors. 1. the presence of an iron core inside the coil. 2. the volume of the coil and the number of its turns. 3. the distance separating them. The transformer is considered as a clear example of mutual induction Experiment to study mutual induction One can study experimentally the mutual induction as follows: Connect one of the two coils in a circuit which contains a battery, a switch and a rheostat. One coil is called the "primary coil", while the other coil - connected to a sensitive galvanometer with its zero point at the middle of its scale - is known as the "secondary coil". Fig( 11-5). Let us do the experiment as follows: 1) Close the circuit of the primary coil, while plunging the primary coil into the secondary coil. One notices a deflection in the galvanometer in a certain direction, indicating the generation of an induced electromotive force in the secondary coil due to the variation of the number of magnetic flux lines linked with the turns of the secondary coil. On taking away the primary coil from the secondary coil, one notices that the pointer of the sensitive galvanometer is deflected in the opposite direction.

Mutual induction between two coils:
Fig (11 - 4A)
in case there is no current in the first coil, there is no emf in the second coil.
Fig (11- 4b)
at the instant of closing the ciruit of the first coil, an emf is generated in the second coil.
Fig (11 - 4c)
after the current in the primary is steady (the flux is steady) emf in the secondary coil: 0
If the two stationary coils are arranged such that one coil surrounds the other., i.e., one coil is plunged into the second one, or even one is placed in the neighborhood of the other as shown in Fig.(11-4), then the variation in the intensity of the electric current in one of the two coils (opening and closing the switch) will induce an electromotive force in the other coil, according to Faradayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s law. This induced electromotive force is proportional to the rate of change in the magnetic flux linked with the other coil. Since the magnetic flux is proportional to the intensity of current in the first coil.
II. The pointer of the galvanometer deflects in the opposite direction in the following cases: a) on the withdrawal of the primary, or taking it far away from the secondary coil. b) on decreasing the intensity of the current in the primary. c) on switching off the primary circuit. In the above cases, he intensity of the magnetic field affecting the secondary coil decreases and the magnetic flux linkage decreases. The induced emf in the secondary coil decreases as the affecting field decreases with time. The direction of the induced electromotive force (and the induced current) is in the forward direction, so as to produce a magnetic field in the same direction as the current in the primary. This in turn resists the decrease in the affecting magnetic field. All these observations clarify Lenz's rule, where the direction of the induced current is such as to resist (or to oppose) the time variation causing it. Self induction of a coil: One can understand what is meant by self induction of a coil by connecting the coil of a strong electromagnet (a coil of large number of turns) in series with a 6V

battery, and a switch as shown in Fig (11-6). Current passes in the considered coil, due to which a strong magnetic field is formed, since each turn acts as a small magnet. The magnetic flux links

On switching off the circuit, it is noticed that an electric spark is passed between the two terminals of the switch. This is explained as follows.

magnetic field will be in a direction as to resist the increase in the affecting magnetic field.

induced in the secondary coil upon switching on or switching off the primary circuit. The analysis of the above mentioned observations leads to the following conclusions: I. The pointer of the sensitive galvanometer deflects in a certain direction in the following cases: a) bringing the primary coil close to the secondary coil or when the primary coil is plunged inside the secondary one. b) increasing the intensity of the current in the primary coil. c) switching on the primary circuit. In all cases above, there is a positive increase in magnetic flux linkage and the induced emf in the secondary coil increases as the affecting magntic field increases with time. The induced current is in opposing direction to that in the primary. In such a case, the induced
It is the self-inductance of a coil in which an emf of one volt is induced when the current passing through it changes at a rate of one Ampere per second (vsA)-1. The self inductance of a coil depends on: a) its geometry. b) its number of turns. c) the spacing between the turns. d) the magnetic permeability of its core. Among the applications of self induction is the fluorescent lamp, where magnetic energy is stored in the coil. This energy is discharged in an evacuated tube filled by an inert gas, causing collisions of its atoms and their subsequent ionization and collision with the
Henry
walls of the tube. The inner walls are coated with a fluorescent material which causes visible light to be emitted upon the collision of the inert gas ions with it. Electromagnetic induction is also used in Ruhmkorff coil, which is used as an ignition coil in internal combustion engines (such as a car). Eddy Currents: If the magnetic flux changes with time through a solid conductor ,currents will be induced in closed paths in the conductor. Such currents are called "eddy currents". The change in the intercepted magnetic flux is effected either by moving the solid in a suitable magnetic field or by subjecting the metallic solid to an alternating magnetic field( for example field due to an AC current). The eddy currents are associated with heating effects. Thus, they are useful in melting metals in what is called the induction furnaces.

When the coil circuit is switched off, the current ceases to pass in it, and this is associated with a decrease of the magnetic field of the neighboring turns to zero. This in turn is accompanied by a time variation of the flux linkage, i.e., each turn cuts the diminishing lines of the magnetic flux, and thus, an induced electromotive force is generated in the coil. The induced electromotive force is formed in the turns of the coil as a whole as a result of the self induction of the coil itself. This induced electromotive force is generated due to the self induction of the coil on switching off or switching on the circuit following Lenz's rule. Thus, an induced electric current is generated in the same direction as the original current. When the circuit is switched off, to retain the existing current, a spark is formed between the two terminals of the switch. When the number of turns of the coil is large, the induced emf on switching off the circuit will be much larger than that of the battery, This causes a neon lamp connected in paralle1 between the two terminals of the switch to glow(a neon lamp requires a potential difference about 180V to glow). Since the induced electromotive force is proportional to the rate of change of the current in the coil, then the emf induced by self induction is directly proportional to the rate of change of the current in the coil. That is : 6 I1 (emf)1 ∝ 6t ∴ (emf) e ¡ 1 = - L
6 I1 6t
(11 - 3)
where L is a constant of proportionality known as the coefficiont of self induction (self inductance) of the coil, and the negative sign in equation (11-3) indicates that the induced electromotivc force opposes the change causing it (Lenz's rule). L=-

6P/6t
Thus, the self inductance of a coil is defined as: It is the electromotive force induced in the coil when the current passing through it changes at a rate equals one Ampere per second. The self inductance is measured in the unit henry.
The AC generator (or the dynamo) is a device which converts the mechanical energy into electrical energy. In a generator, a coil rotates in a magnetic field, and the resulting induced current can be transferred (or transmitted) by wires for long distances. The simple electric generator consists as shown in Fig (11-8) of four main parts : a) a field magnet. b) an armature. permanent field magnetic

magnet or an electromagnet. The armature consists of a single loop of wire or coil of many turns suspended between the two poles of the field magnet. A pair of slip rings are connected, one to each end of the loop. They rotate with the loop in the magnetic field. The induced current in the coil passes to the external circuit through two graphite brushes, each touching one of the two corresponding slip rings. Fig (11-9) shows

of oscillations per second is the frequency f. The frequecy of home use power is 50Hz
Example: The coil of a simple AC generator consists of 100 turns, the cross sectional area of each is 0.21 m2. The coil rotates with frequency 50 Hz (cycles/second) in a magnetic field of constant flux density B = 10-3 Weber/m2. What is the maximum induced emf generated? and what is the instantaneous value at θ = 30˚? Solution:
(emf)max = NBA ω = NBA (2 πf)
= 100 x 10 -3 x 0.21 x 2 x
22 x 50 = 6.6 V 7
Thus, the maximum induced emf generated equals 0.6 volts.
1 = 3.3 V 2 It is worth remembering that the induced current is directly proportional to the induced e= ¡max sin e = 6.6 x sin 30˚= 6.6 x emf = ¡(emf)
emf. Thus, the instantaneous value of the induced current is given by : I = Imax sin (2 πf t )
Unit 4 : Electricity Dynamic Elictricity and Electromagnetism Chapter 11: Electromagnetic Induction
From Fig (11-10), we see that the induced current

This induced current reaches its maximum value when the induced emf reaches its maximum value, and it vanishes as the induced emf is zero. Effective value of the alternating current: It is worth mentioning that the average value

It is noticed that using the commutator renders the induced emf in Fig (11-11d) in one direction, but its value changes from zero up to a maximum value, then decreases again to zero during each half cycle of the coil rotation, but it is always in one direction.

secondary coil will be larger than the emf in the primary one. For example, if the number of turns of the secondary coil is twice that for the primary coil, one gets Vs = 2VP.
While, for the case when Ns is less than Np one gets a step-down transformer, where, in
such a case Vs will be less than Vp.
The relation between the current intensities in the two coils of the transformer: Let us assume that there is no loss in the electric energy in the transformer (almost zero resistance), then according to the law of conservation of energy, the electric energy made available by the source in the primary coil must equal that delivered to the load in the secondary coil.

This shows that the intensity of the electric current in either of the two coils is inversely proportional to the number of its turns. For example: if the number of turns of the secondary coil is twice that of the primary coil, then the intensity of current in the secondary coil equals half that in the primary coil. From this argument, we see the importance of the use of the step-up transformer at the

The induced emf in the secondary is determined from the relation: Vss==- N s 6 qm 6t 6 qm where, Ns is number of turns of the secondary coil and is the rate of change of the 6t mangetic flux linked between the primary through the secondary coil. The electromotive force in the primary is in turn related to the rate of change of the magnetic flux and is determined from the relation :

In the case of AC, what determines the current are three elements,the resistor, the inductor and the capacitor. Household appliances use 220 V AC of frequency 50 HZ. Often, we need to convert this to a lower DC voltage, as in the case of the mobile charger and some other appliances.To do this, we use a down transformer and a rectifier. It is to be noted that a low AC current is more hazardous to man than a low DC current (why?).

Examples: 1- A trandformer connected to a 240 V AC power source gives 900 V output emf with current intensity 4A. What is the intensity of the source current assuming that the efficiency of the transformer is 100%?

What is the number of turns of the secondary coil if the number of turns of the primary coil is 1100 ? and what is the intensity of current in the secondary coil if the current in the primary coil is 0.1 A ?
Starting from a position at which the plane of the coil is parallel to the lines of the magnetic flux, and the brush F - connected to the positive terminal of the battery - touches 1
the half cylinder x, while F - connected to the negative terminal of the battery - touches the 2
half cylinder y as shown in Fig (11-17). Thus, current passes in the coil in the direction dcba. Applying Fleming's left hand rule, one concludes that the wire ab is affected by a force in the upward direction, while the wire cd is affected by a force in the downward direction. The two produced forces (couple) form a torque, and the coil begins to rotate in the direction shown in the figure. As the coil rotates, the moment of the couple decreases gradually till it vanishes, when the coil plane becomes perpendicular to the lines of the magnetic flux. But the coil having gained a momentum will continue motion due to its inertia, which in turn pushes the coil to the other side. The two halves x and y of the commutator interchange position, such that the half cylinder x will be in touch with the brush F2,while the brush F
1
will touch to other half cylinder y. Thus, the current in the coil will reverse direction and pass in the direction abcd. Applying "Fleming's left hand rule" for the new position of the coil shows that the force acting on the wire ab will be downward, while the force acting on the wire cd will be upwards. The obtained torque enables the coil to continue rotation in the same circular direction. The torque increases gradually to its maximum value when the plane of the coil becomes parallel to the lines of the magnetic flux. Then, it decreases to zero when the plane of the coil is perpendicular to the lines of magnetic flux. The inertia of the coil then causes it to continue rotating to the other side. This permits the two halves to interchange positions and with respect to the two brushes F1 and F2, and thus, the current in the coil is reversed once more. The coil continues rotating in the same circular direction making one complete revolution, and so on. In order to increase the power of the motor, a number of coils may be used with equal

(commutator). The two halves (x,y) are insulated from each other and capable of rotating around the axis of the coil. The plane separating the two halves is perpendicular to the plane of the coil and the line connecting the two brushes is parallel to the lines of magnetic flux. To operate the motor, the two brushes must be connected to the battery. The motor and the galvanometer: The principle of operation of the electric motor and that of the moving coil galvanometer are alike. The main difference is that the electric motor must rotate continuously in the same direction. The design of the electric motor necessitates that the two halves x,y of the cylinder must interchange positions relative to the two brushes F1 and F2 each half cycle.
As a result, the electric current passing in the motor must reverse direction in the coil each half revolution.

During rotation, each two opposite segments touch the two brushes F1 and F2 when their corresponding coil is in position of largest torque. Learn at Leisure
Motor and generator at the same time: While operating the motor, its coil cuts the line of magnetic flux of the field magnet. There is a rate of change of cutting magnetic lines. Therefore, an emf is induced opposite to the source, reducing the current, and hence, the speed.This back emf in the motor coil acts to the stabilize the speed of rotation of the coil. If the speed of the coil tends to increase, the back emf increases. The difference between the back emf and the external source is the voltage drop across the coil resistance. Therefore, as the back emf increases, the current decreases, and so does the speed of rotation. Conversely, if the coil speed tends to decrease, the back emf decreases, and the current increases. So the speed of rotation of a DC motor remains constant.But the speed can be changed by changing the source (battery) voltage. It should be noted that if we try to stop the motor by force while it is connected to the source, the motor coil burns out, because the back emf would disappear and the battery voltage is applied in full across the small coil resistance so it burns out. Also, if a transformer works on no load (secondary is open circuited), the secondary current is zero and the primary current should be zero. However, a back emf in the primary almost balances out with the input voltage due to self-induction. A small current in the primary exists even at no load to produce the flux linkage. So, an ideal transformer does not really exist. However, at full load, we may consider - as an approximation - that the ideal transformer model works.

lgnition circuit in a car The ignition coil (Fig 11-21) consists of two coils one inside the other, both wound around a soft iron core. The primary coil and the core comprise an electromagnet. the primary circuit is opened regularly by a distributer cam as it rotates, thus, opening and closing the point contacts. The secondary coil contains thousands of turns. A large emf is generated from time to time at the same rate of opening the primary circuit. This large emf generates a spark across the air gap across the spark plugs. The spark plugs are connected alternately to the secondery coil as the distributer rotates. A capacitor is used to protect the points from corrosion due to the spark. Electronic ignition system works on the same principle, but the cam is replaced by transistors as a switch (Chapter 15).

• Fleming's right hand rule: Place the thumb, the pointer and the middle finger(with the rest of the fingers) of the right hand mutually at right angles. If the pointer points in the direction of the magnetic field and the thumb in the direction of motion then the middle finger (with the rest of the fingers) will point in the direction of the induced current.
• Mutual induction: It is the electromagnetic interaction between two coils kept close to each other (or one inside the other).An electric current with time varying intensity passing in one coil (primary coil)will produce in the second one (secondary coil) an induced current in a direction such that to oppose the variations of the current intensity in the primary coil.

All what we have studied so far can be lumped under the title of classical physics. By classical, we do not mean outdated or obsolete. In fact, classical physics explains everything in our daily life and our common experiences. The present unit, however, entails some of the basic concepts of modern physics and a general view of a quantum physics. This branch of physics (modern or quantum) deals with a great collection of scientific phenomena which might not be directly observed in our daily life, but treat a number of situations in the universe which classical physics cannot explain, especially when we deal with atomic and subatomic systems, i.e, down to the subatomic scale . Also, this kind of physics explains all phenomena involved in electronics which is the basis for all modern electronic and communication systems. It also explains chemical reactions on the level of the molecule. Some of such reactions were photographed by Ahmed Zewail using a high speed laser camera. Such work entitled him to earn the Noble Prize in chemistry in1999.

How can we explain the bell shape of radiation? Planck in 1900 came up with the answer. Planck called this phenomenon black body radiation. The reason for naming it so is that a black body absorbs all radiation falling on it, regardless of the wavelength. It is, thus, a perfect absorber. It then re-emits this radiation wholly. It is therefore a perfect emitter. If we imagine an enclosed cavity with a small hole,

radiation within the cavity remains trapped due to multiple reflections. Only a small part of it leaks out, which is called blackbody radiation (Fig 12-12). Planck managed to explain this blackbody phenomenon with an interpretation that

A metal contains positive ions and free electrons which can move around inside the metal but cannot leave it, due to the attractive forces of the surface which may be represented by a surface potential barrier. But some of these electrons can escape if given enough energy in the form of heat or light (Fig 12-14). This is the idea behind the cathode ray tube (CRT), which is used in TV and computer monitors (Fig 12 -15). This tube consists of metal surface called the cathode, which is heated by a filament. Electrons are, thus, emitted by the so called electron gun (E-gun). Due to heat, some electrons may overcome the forces of attraction at the surface.

sounded weird at the time. He proposed that radiation was made up of small units (or packets) of energy, each he called quantum (or photon). Therefore, we may consider radiation from a glowing object as a flux of emitted photons. The photons’ energy increases with frequency, but their number decreases with increasing energy. The photons emanate from the vibrations of atoms. The energy of these vibrating atoms is not continuous but quantized (discrete or discontinuous) into levels. These

Einstein put forth an interpretation for all this, which led him to Nobel prize in 1921. He proposed that a photon with ν > νc falling on a metallic surface , has energy hν , while the energy needed to free an electron ( called the work function) is Ew = hνc ( Fig 12-14). Thus, the photon is barely able to free an electron, if it has energy hν=hνc= Ew. If the photon energy exceeds this limit, the electron is freed and the energy difference hν -Ew is carried by the electrons as kinetic energy, i.e., it moves faster as hν increases. Whereas if hν<Ew, the electron would not be emitted at all, no matter how intense the light might be. Also, the emission is instantaneous. There is no need for time to collect energy. The emission takes place instantly, once hν > hνc . It is to be noted that νc and Ew vary for different materials, and do not depend on the light intensity, the exposure time or the voltage difference between the anode and the cathode.

point generating the picture,so called raster until the frame is completed (Fig 12-15). When light falls on a cold cathode instead of heating a filament, a current flows in the circuit too. This means incident light electrons have been freed due to light. The emission of such electrons due to light falling on a metallic surface is a phenomenon called photoelectric effect (Fig 12-16). This emitted phenomenon cannot be explained by the classical theory of photoelectrons light. Considering light as a wave, part of the light falling vacuum on the surface of the metal is absorbed, giving some ammeter electrons enough energy to escape. We are then up aganist certain difficulties with the classical theory. If we attempt voltmeter using the classical model, the current intensity or the emission of such electrons (called photoelectrons) should battery depend on the intensity of the incident wave, regardless of Fig (12-16) its frequency. Also, the kinetic energy (or velocity) of the Photoelectric current emitted electrons should increase with increasing intensity achieved by absorbing of the incident radiation. Even in the case of low light photons on a metal surface intensity, giving sufficient time should give some electrons )Photo electeric cell( enough energy to be freed, regardless of the frequency of the incident light. But the practical observations are contrary to these classical expectations. It has been observed that the emission of electrons depends primarily on the frequency of the incident light not on its intensity. Such electrons are not emitted if the frequency is under a threshold (critical value) νc no matter how intense light may be. If the frequency exceeds νc, photocurrent increases with the intensity of light (Fig 12-17). Also, the kinetic energy (or velocity) of the emitted electrons depends on the frequency of the incident wave not its intensity.In addition, the emission of electrons occurs instantly as long as ν > νc. The electrons do not need time to collect energy if the light intensity is low, provided ν > νc .

and it changed its direction (Fig 12-21). This observation could not be explained by the , wave (classical) theory of light. It can be argued based on Planck s hypothesis that electromagnetic radiation consists of photons which can collide with electrons as billiard balls collide. In this collision, linear momentum must be conserved (law of conservation of linear momentum), i.e., the linear momentum before collision must equal the linear momentum after collision. Also, the law of conservation of energy must apply, i.e., the the sum of the energy of the photon and the electron after collision must equal the sum of the energy of the photon and the electron before collision . We must, therefore, consider a photon as a particle with a linear momentum, i.e., it has mass and velocity as much as the electron is a particle which has mass and velocity, and hence a linear momentum.

is translated to released energy as in the atomic bomb (Fig 12-22). Nuclear fission is associated with a small loss of mass which is converted to large amount of energy due to the c2(c2 = 9 x 1016 m2/s2) factor. Therefore, the law of conservation of mass and the law of the conservation of energy blend into the law of conservation of mass and energy. Thus, a photon whose energy is hν has a mass of hν/c2, while in motion . Since it is moving at velocity Fig (12-22) Atomic bomb c, its momentum which is the product of mass and velocity becomes hν/c . If a beam of photons is incident on a certain surface at the rate of φL (photons/s,), then each photon impinges on the surface and bounces off, and hence, suffers a change in linear momentum 2mc. The force which a beam of photons applies to the surface is the change in linear momentum per second: F = 2mcφL hν 2pP F = 2 ( c ) φL = c w

where Pw is the power in watts of the light incident on the surface. This force is too small to be noticed. But it is appreciable if it affects a free electron instead, due to its small mass and size, so it throws it off. This is the explanation of Compton effect. In the microscopic model, we can image a phaton as a sphere whose radius is roughly equal to λ and oscillates at frequency ν. The stream of photons collectively has a magnetic field and an electric field. These two fields are perpendicular to one another and to the direction of propagation.Both oscillate at ν. The photon flux (or stream) carries the energy of the wave. The wave properties are ,thus, manifested by the photon stream as a whole. The wave

should be noted that when photons fall on a surface, a comparison is made between λ and photons sense the surface as a continuous one and get reflected from it as in wave theory. If the interatomic distance is comparable to λ, photons penetrate through the atoms. This is what happens in the case of X- rays.

Wave properties of a particle In the universe, there is a great deal of symmetry. If waves have particle nature, could it be that particles might have wave properties ? a question posed by De Broglie in 1923 led to a hypothesis of wave particle duality applying to particles. The wavelength of a particle must be in analogy with a photon λ = h/PL where pL is the linear momentum of the particle.

The accompanying wave has wavelength 位 The intensity of the accompanying wave describes the electron concentration. Such a wave can disperse, reflect, refract, interfere and diffract, just as light does (Fig 12-25). But does this mean we can use an electron ray as much as we use a light ray in a microscope? The answer is yes. This answer is verified by the discovery of the electron microscope.

The important difference is in the resolving power. The e-microscope has a high resolving power, because the electrons can carry a high kinetic energy, and hence very short λ (equation 12-3). Thus, its magnification is so high that it can detect very small objects, so small that an ordinary optical microscope fails to observe (Fig 12-28). The optical microscope uses light, while

Therefore, an electron remains trapped in the atom, unless acted upon by an external stimulus. Heisenberg showed also that we could not determine an exact path (orbit) for an electron in an atom.

for studying 2) Collimation : InApparatus ordinary light sources, the the spectra diameterofofthe theelements emitted light beam increases
with distance , where in lasers, the diameter stays constant for long distances without much unscattering. Thus ,energy is transmitted without much losses . 3) Coherence: Photons of ordinary light sources propagate randomly or incoherently. They emanate at different instants of time, and have inconsistent and varying phase. In lasers, however, photons emanate coherently both in time and place, since they come out together at the same time sequence, and maintains the same phase difference throughout, during propagation over long distances. This makes radiation intense and focused. 4) Intensity: Light produced by ordinary sources is subject to the inverse square law, since the intensity of radiation falling on unit area decreases, the further away from the light source, Fig (13 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 4b ) due to spreading (Fig 14-4a).

In so doing, more and more excited atoms poised to generate stimulated emission, which is further amplified and so on. This is the origin of amplification of the laser (Fig 14–7), called laser action .
Main Components of a Laser potential
Despitedifference the variations in size, type and frequency, three common elements must exist in any laser: 1) Active medium: This can be a crystalline solid (e.g. ruby), semiconductor (chapter15) a liquid dye, gas atoms Ne laser),prism ionized gases (e.g. screenArgon laser), or gas (e.g. He – slit molecular gases (e.g. CO2 laser).
Fig (13 – 4a ) 2) Sources of energy responsible for exciting the active medium as follows : Apparatus for studying the spectra of the elements (a) excitation by electrical energy, either by using radio frequency (RF) waves or by using electric discharge under high DC voltage gas lasers:( HeNe – Ar – CO2). (b) excitation by optical energy, also known as optical pumping, which can be done either by flash lamps (e.g. in ruby laser) or using a laser beam as a source of energy (liquid dye laser). (c) thermal excitation, by using the thermal effects resulting from the kinetic energy of gases to excite the active material (e.g. in He-Ne laser). (d) excitation by chemical energy as chemical reactions between giving gases energy to stimulate atoms toward lasing (e.g. the–reaction Fig (13 4b ) between hydrogen and fluorine or the reaction between Deuterium CO2 ) .

One is used to illuminate the object, and the other is used as the reference beam. The reflected beam and the reference beam meet at the photographic plate, and interference takes place. After the photographic plate is developed, resulting interference fringes appear coded, and we call such an image a hologram. Illuminating a hologram with a laser of the same wavelength and looking through it with the naked eye, we see an identical 3D image of the object without using any lenses. The full information (intensity and phase) is now retrieved due to the coherence nature of the laser.

Electronic Components Devices Apparatus for and studying the spectra of the elements Electronic components and devices are the building blocks for all electronic systems (Fig 15 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 7). Some of these components are simple, e.g., resistor (R), inductor (L), capacitor (C). Some are more complex, such as pn junction (diode), transistor. There are also other specialized devices, such as optoelectronic and control devices. Semiconductors from which most of these devices are made are known to be sensitive to environmental conditions, such as light, heat, pressure, radiation and chemical pollution. That is why they are used as sensors or means for measuring external stimulii. Using these sensors, we can measure the intensity of incident light, temperature, pressure, humidity, pollution, radiation,etc. Fig (13 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 4b )

If we reverse the battery, then the two fields will aid each other. In the first case (forward bias), a net current will flow, and in the second case (reverse bias) current is almost zero (Fig 15-12). The action of the pn junction is like a switch, which is closed in the forward direction (conducting) and open (non conducting) in the reverse direction (Fig 15-13). We can make sure that the pn diode is functioning by using an ohmmeter, since the diode should have a small resistance in the forward direction and a large resistance in the reverse

Apparatus for studying the spectra of the elements
• The number of free electrons and holes increases by adding impurities (doping). Thus, the material becomes n-type or p-type. • The conductivity of a semiconductor depends on the conduction of free electrons and holes. Thus, a semiconductor has two current carriers: electrons and holes, while in a metal there is only one current carrier (the electron). Electron concentration in a metal is constant and does not depend on temperature. • Semiconductors are environment-sensitive. They can be used as sensors to light, heat, pressure humidity, chemical pollution, radiation etc. • A diode (pn junction) consists of a Fig p–type (13 –region 4b ) and an n-type region. If the p-side is
