1 PHY Tables & Formulas You may refer to this handout on quizzes & exams. Do not add additional information. m Things you should know from PHY 131 and other prerequisites. (If you don t, learn them now.) - Definitions of trig functions - Pythagorean theorem - Newton's three laws - Relationship between weight and mass - Formula for kinetic energy - Relationship between frequency and period - Definition of pressure - Ideal gas law Sec. 1: Gravitational Force: F Gm m r Field lines show direction of the force on a positive test charge. Superposition: Force: Vector sum of forces from all charges at other points. E : Vector sum of fields from all charges at other points. Sec. 2: Memorize: Definition of potential (and potential difference). B Potential difference: ΔV = V B - V A = E ds = E s if E constant A Potential energy of one charge: U = Σ U for every pair which includes that charge Total U of a group of charges: Σ U for every pair of charges. Potential at some point: V = Σ V from all charges at other points

2 - 2 - Charge per unit length: λ = Q/L Charge per unit area: σ = Q/A Charge per unit volume: ρ = Q/V Sec 4: Memorize: Definition of current, definition of capacitance, and Ohm s law. Between parallel plates in a vacuum: V E and d C = ε o A/d E Q 0 A Current density: Magnitude: J = I/A Direction: direction positive charge is moving If n = number of free charges per unit volume, q = charge of one of them, and v d = their drift velocity, J = nqv d Resistivity, ρ: E = ρj, ρ = RA/l Conductivity: σ = 1/ρ Series V tot = V 1 + V 2 + V 3 + I tot = I 1 = I 2 = I 3 = R eq = R 1 + R 2 + R Q tot = Q 1 = Q 2 = Q 3 = Parallel V tot = V 1 = V 2 = V 3 = I tot = I 1 + I 2 + I 3 + 1/R eq = 1/R 1 + 1/R Q tot = Q 1 + Q 2 + Q 3 + 1/C eq = 1/C 1 + 1/C 2 + C eq = C 1 + C 2 + C 3 + Sec 5: Electric Power: P = VI = I 2 R = V 2 /R (Recall, P = W/t = (energy delivered)/t) EMF (Electromotive "force", in volts): E = (energy form source)/q Loop rule: Σ potential changes around a closed loop = 0 (increase = pos, decrease = neg, where + side is higher V) Point rule: Total current into a point = total current out.

3 sec. 6: Unit vector = (No other formulas are new.) Sec. 7: Know how s direction is defined. Force on a moving charge: F q( v B) Charge circling in a B field: F centripetal = F magnetic (F c =mv 2 /r) Force on a wire: F I ( B) 's magnitude = wire's length, 's direction = direction of current Lorentz force equation: F qe q( v B) Sec. 8: (If field or angle vary from point to point,.) In a toroidal coil of B = μ o IN circumference 2πr: 2πr Sec. 9: Magnetic flux, Φ B : Replace E with B in Φ E equation, sec. 3

4 - 4 - Maxwell s Equations (If field or angle vary from point to point, replace with.): Sec. 10: Lenz's Law: Direction of induced current is such that coil's own B field opposes the change in flux. Permittivity: ε = κε o (ε replaces ε o in all equations when a material medium is present.) Magnetic permeability: μ replaces μ o in all equations when a material medium is present.) Sec. 11: LR circuits: Time constant: τ = L/R = time to get about 63% (1-1/e) of the way to the final value. Current decay: I = I 0 e -t/τ RC circuits: Time constant: τ = RC Discharging: q = Q 0 e -t/τ) Charging up: Find current from I = dq/dt, capacitor s voltage using C = q/v. (When discharging, Q o /C = V o.) Energy stored in a capacitor : U = ½ CV 2 = Q 2 /(2C) Energy per unit volume in an E field: u = ½ ε E 2 Energy stored in an inductor: U = ½ LI 2 Energy per unit volume in a B field: u = B 2 /(2μ)

5 - 5 - Find current from I = dq/dt, and voltage using C = q/v. (Q max /C = V max.) LC circuits total energy: U = ½ CV 2 + ½ LI 2 Resistor: V = IR (That is, V RMS = I RMS R and v max = i max R), v & i in phase. Capacitor: V = IX c, capacitive reactance = X c = 1/(ωC), ELI ICE Inductor: V = IX L, inductive reactance = X L = ωl Circuit as a whole: V = IZ, impedance = Z = Power: P AV = (I RMS ) 2 R = V RMS I RMS cos (cos = "power factor") Transformer: V 1 /V 2 = N 1 /N 2 and V 1 I 1 = V 2 I 2 Sec. 13: From Phy 131: Heat flow when temperature changes: Q = m c ΔT Heat flow when state changes: Q = m L f or Q = m L v First Law of Thermo.: E int = Q + W W = Work Done on System. E int = Increase in Internal Energy Q = Heat Added Molar Heat Capacity: Q = nc T For any Ideal Gas: Eint ncv T, C P - C v = R, Cv C P C P = constant pressure heat capacity, C V = constant volume heat capacity

6 - 6 - For a Monatomic Ideal Gas: 3 C V 2 R 5, C P R 2 Isobaric Process = No Pressure Change SEC. 14: Know 2 nd law of Thermodynamics in terms of entropy and in term of heat. Work Done In A Cycle = Area Enclosed On P-V Diagram. Q in = W + Q out Efficiency: Efficiency of Carnot Cycle: Change in Entropy for a Reversible Process:
