1 News Charge and Potential Quiz #2: Monday, 3/14, 10AM Same procedure as for quiz 1 Review in class Fri, 3/11 Evening review, Fri, 3/11, 68PM 2 practice quizzes ( practice problems) Formula sheet R Charged Sphere V=1/(4! " 0 R) Q Geometry! Parallel Plate Capacitor d V= d/(a " 0 ) Q Demo: Charge Density Application: Lightning rod Biggest E near pointy tip! Local radius of curvature Charge and Potential For given geometry, Potential and Charge are proportional Define Q = C V > C is Capacitance Measured in [F] = [C/V] : Farad C tells us, how easy it is to store charge on it (V = Q/C )

2 Q Q2 Q1 Capacitance slope = C C big C small Capacitor Def: Two conductors separated by insulator Charging capacitor: take charge from one of the conductors and put on the other separate and charges V0 V C bigger > Can store more Charge! Parallel Plate Capacitor Energy stored in Capacitor Q d Q Work W = 1/2 Q 2 /C = 1/2 C V 2 needed to charge capacitor Energy conserved But power can be amplified To store lots of charge Charge slowly make A big Discharge very quickly make d small web.mit.edu/8.02x/www

3 Demo (Loud...) Where is the energy stored? C = 100µF V ab = 4000 V U = 800 J thin wire Energy is stored in Electric Field E 2 gives Energy Density: U/Volume =! e 0 E 2 Q Q d Dielectrics Dielectric Demo Parallel Plate Capacitor: C = "0 A/d Ex. A = 1m 2, d=0.1mm > C ~ 0.1µF How can one get small capacitors with big capacity? n your toolbox: 2 cm C = 1000µF Q Q Start w/ charged capacitor d big > C small > V large nsert Glass plate Now V much smaller C bigger But A and d unchanged! Glass is a Dielectric

4 Microscopic view Dielectric Constant Polarization Q P = const. E = "0 # E Q Dielectric reduces field E 0 (K > 1) E = 1/K E0 Dielectric increases Capacitance C = Q/V = Q/(E d) = K Q/(E0d) This is how to make small capacitors with large C! Electric Current We left Electrostatics Now: Charges can move in steady state Electric Current : = dq/dt Net amount of charge moving through conductor per unit time Units: [] = C/s = A (Ampere) Electric Current Current = dq/dt has a direction Convention: Direction of flow of positive charges n our circuits, carried by electrons To get a current: Need mobile charges Need E > 0 (Potential difference)

5 Demo Demo ons discharge Electroscope Charged ons Glass Light Bulb Electroscope Voltage source Molten glass: Charge carriers become mobile > Current flows > Bulb lights up! Demo Demo V Light Bulb Voltage source Light bulb (bright) Distilled Water 110 V Add NaCl: Dissociates into Na and Cl Charge carriers are available > Current flows > Bulb lights up Liquid Nitrogen (T ~ 200 o C) Wire cold > less resistance > more current > bulb burns brighter

6 Resistivity nterplay of scattering and acceleration gives an average velocity v D vd is called Drift velocity How fast do the electrons move? Thermal speed is big: v th ~ 10 6 m/s Drift velocity is small: v D ~ 10 3 m/s All electrons in conductor start to move, as soon as E> 0 Resistance Define R = V/ : Resistance R = $ L /A for constant cross section A R is measured in Ohm [%] = [V/A] Resistivity $ is property of material (e.g. glass) Resistance R is property of specific conductor, depending on material ($) and geometry Ohm s law V = R Conductor is Ohmic, if R does not depend on V, For real conductors, that is only approximately true (e.g. R = R(T) and T = T()) Approximation valid for resistors in circuits not valid for e.g. light bulbs Electric Power Use moving charges to deliver power Power = Energy/time = dwdt = (dq V)/dt = dq/dt V = V = 2 R = V 2 /R

Which one of the pipes emits sound with the lowest frequency? Which one of the pipes emits sound with the next lowest frequency? The figures show standing waves of sound in six organ pipes of the same length. Each pipe has one end open and the other end closed. Warning: some of the figures show situations that are not possible.
