9 Review of Phasors Consider any physical system described by a linear second order ODE with constant coefficients, driven by a sinusoid at a fixed frequency and a reference phase: dx dx i ωt + a + b x=c e dt dt Look only for a solution in the form of a steady state sinusoid with unknown amplitude and phase. Form a prototype solution of the form: x= A e i (ω t ϕ) i ϕ i ωt =Ae e Plug prototype solution back into ODE: ω A ei ϕ e i ω t + a i ω A e i ϕ ei ω t + b A ei ϕ e i ω t =c e i ω t Cancel eiωt factors: iϕ iϕ iϕ ω A e + a i ω A e + b A e =c Second order ODE has been transformed into a complex algebraic equation AeiΦ is called the phasor of the solution x 9

26 Electric Field Vectors for Dipole

27 Electric Field Vectors for Quadrapole

28 Electric Field Vectors for Example Arbitrary Charges

29 C Code for Mapping Electric Field Vectors xstop = xstop + xinc *.5; ystop = ystop + yinc *.5; rtest = 1.e-6 * (xinc*xinc + yinc*yinc); x = xstart; while (((xinc >.) && (x < xstop)) ((xinc <.) && (x > xstop))) { y = ystart; while (((yinc >.) && (y < ystop)) ((yinc <.) && (y > ystop))) { ex =.; ey =.; i = ; while (i < n) { Loop over n charges. rsq = (x-xi[i])*(x-xi[i]) + (y-yi[i])*(y-yi[i]); double array qi[] hold if (rsq < rtest) break; each charge qi and r = sqrt(rsq); ex += qi[i] * (x-xi[i]) / (r * rsq); double arrays xi[] and yi[] ey += qi[i] * (y-yi[i]) / (r * rsq); hold xi and yi coordinates i++; } if (i >= n) { emag = sqrt(ex*ex + ey*ey); vx = xinc * ex / emag; vy = yinc * ey / emag; printf("%.8g %.8g %.8g %.8g\n",x-.5*vx,y-.5*vy,vx,vy); } y = y + yinc; } x = x + xinc; } 9

30 Classical Electric Field Lines Note that the vectors plotted by this method only record the direction of the E field vector at an array of sampled points. These are not quite equivalent to the classical field lines, which convey both the direction of the field and its magnitude from the density of drawn lines. 3

31 Classical Electric Equipotential Lines A simple modification of this algorithm can be used to plot a sampling of the direction of the electric equipotential lines. At a given point, field lines and equipotential lines will have slopes that are negative reciprocals of each other. Again, no magnitude information is present, only direction. 31

32 Equipotential Vectors for Example Arbitrary Charges

33 C Code for Mapping Equipotential Vectors xstop = xstop + xinc *.5; ystop = ystop + yinc *.5; rtest = 1.e-6 * (xinc*xinc + yinc*yinc); x = xstart; while (((xinc >.) && (x < xstop)) ((xinc <.) && (x > xstop))) { y = ystart; while (((yinc >.) && (y < ystop)) ((yinc <.) && (y > ystop))) { ex =.; ey =.; i = ; while (i < n) { rsq = (x-xi[i])*(x-xi[i]) + (y-yi[i])*(y-yi[i]); if (rsq < rtest) break; r = sqrt(rsq); ex += qi[i] * (x-xi[i]) / (r * rsq); ey += qi[i] * (y-yi[i]) / (r * rsq); i++; Only these two } statements change! if (i >= n) { emag = sqrt(ex*ex + ey*ey); vx = -.5 * xinc * ey / emag; vy =.5 * yinc * ex / emag; printf("%.8g %.8g %.8g %.8g\n",x-.5*vx,y-.5*vy,vx,vy); } y = y + yinc; } x = x + xinc; } 33

34 Examples of Optical Glare Glare is the reflected room light off of an intervening plexiglass protective sheet. Reflections occur at the interface between two materials of different refractive indices. (Vacuum tube arithmetic unit and magnetic drum memory from the Univac 1, on display at the Deutches Museum of Technology, Munich, Germany) 34

35 Computing Another Kind of Glare: a Rainbow 35

36 Rene Descartes Graphical Derivation I took my pen and made an accurate calculation of the paths of the rays which fall on the different points of a globe of water to determine at which angles, after two refractions and one or two reflections they will come to the eye, and I then found that after one reflection and two refractions there are many more rays which can be seen at an angle of from forty-one to forty-two degrees than at any smaller angle; and that there are none which can be seen at a larger angle" 36

43 Wave Packets for Quantum Mechanics Solutions of the time-independent Schrödinger equation in one dimension d ψ( x) m = [ E V ( x) ] ψ( x) dx ℏ in regions where particles are free to move and not subject to forces, or V (x)= E > and are of the form ψ( x)= A e+ikx +B e ikx which makes the complete solution including the time dependence ψ( x)= A e +i(kx ω t ) i(kx +ω t) +B e p E where k = and ω= ℏ ℏ so the relationship between ω and k is ℏ ω= k m 43

44 Wave Packets for Quantum Mechanics A single wave solution is associated with a continuous flux of particles in the positive or negative x direction, with momentum p and energy E. Solutions that are linear combinations of multiple waves form wave packets that are associated with single particles. ψ( x)= A k ψk (x) k Or in the continuous limit ψ(x)= A (k )ψ k (x)dk Look at Gaussian wave packets where A k =e a (k k ) Or in the continuous limit a (k k ) A (k )=e 44

45 Distribution of Wave Numbers Gaussian wavepacket 1 a=1 a= a=.5.8 A(k) k 45

46 Corresponding Spatial Wave Distribution Gaussian wavepacket 14 a=1 a= a= Psi(X) X 46

47 Phase and Group Velocities The phase velocity vp of a single wave with particular values of k and ω is the velocity of the point in space that maintains a constant sinusoidal phase ℏ ω vp = = k k m The group velocity vg of a wave packet is the velocity of the peak of spatial distribution ℏ dω vg = (k=k ) = k = v p dk m Where vp is the phase velocity of the single wave at the center of the k distribution Note: p ℏ ℏ p vg = k = = m m ℏ m So it is the wave packet group velocity that corresponds to the velocity p/m in the classical limit 47

48 Discrete Approximation to Gaussian Packet Gaussian wavepacket, a=1 Real Imaginary 15 1 Psi(X) X 48

49 Why Do Wave Packets Form a Pulse? Consider the superposition of just two sine waves of different frequencies. They form a beat frequency where constructive and destructive interference alternate: Wave packets are extensions of this property, with the sum over many frequencies. The region where all the waves line up with constructive interference becomes isolated to a pulse. 49

50 Quality of Discrete Approximations Gaussian Wave Packet, n=number of component waves 6 n=1 n=3 n=5 n=7 n=9 n=11 n=13 n=17 Magnitude Squared of Psi(x) X 5

51 Group Velocity versus Phase Velocity Gaussian wavepacket, a=1, time=5, phase velocity=1 Real Imaginary 15 1 Psi(X) X 51
