For four decades this ‘book has provided the standard for the calcults-based intro: ductory survey course and has been known for the clarity and completeness of its presentation. In the present edition ‘we have striven to inerease accessibility without sacrificing the level or the rigor of its content. The text has been sub- stantially rewriuen 1 make the macrial flow more smoothly and to ease the student's entry into new subjects. ‘We have attempted to provide more practical examples and to proceed from the particular to the general when new top- ics are introduced. This edition features many changes in the pedagogy as ‘well as in the ondering of material in the chapters. Those ‘who are familiar with the fourth edition ofthis text will find the same topics but in a slightly revised order. In making these revisions, we have sought the advice of users of past ditions and have taken into consideration the results of physics education research. Among the changes we have ‘made in this edition are the following: 1, Owing to a rearrangement that resulted in the elimi- nation of two chapters from Volume 1, the chapters in Vol- ume 2 have been renumbered beginning with 25 (which comesponds to Chapter 27 of the fourth editioa). 2, Students often have difficulties with integrating over continuous charge distributions in the calculation of electric fields, a procedure that is both conceptually abstract and ‘computationally challenging. In order to deal eailier with the conceptual difficulties, we introduce the procedure in connection with electric forces rather than elects fields; for example, in Chapter 25 we discuss the calculation of the force excried by @ line of charge on a poiat charge. Students generally have a greater physical intuition for forces than fields, and in this way we can establish the mathematical procedure in a more physical contest. Later we will repeat the calculations for fields and potentials. For similar rea~ sons, we introduce the shell theorems in Chapter 25 in the context of forces, which parallels their introduction in Chapter 14 of Volume 1 in the discussion of the gravita- tional force. vit 3. The discussion of Rutherford scattering has been ‘moved from the chapter on Gauss’ lew in the previous edi- tion to the discussion of electric fields in Chapter 26. 4. In Chapter 27 Gauss’ Law), we have expanded the discussion of the relationship beiweea electric flux and field lines, and we now discuss the conveatioral applications of Gauss" law to continucus charge distributions before its ap- plications to conductor. 5S. Chapter 29 (The Electrical Properties of Materials) is ‘anew chapter tha! incorporates material on conductors and dielectrics that appeared in the previous edition in the two chapters on capacitors and curreat. We betieve that this ma- terial stands on its own, and by introducing it in this way wwe can more easily contrast the behavior of conductors and insulators in elecuic fields. 6. Physics education research consistently shows that stu- denis have significant difficulties in understanding the bekav- ior of simple DC circuits. We have therefore expanded our presentation ofthis topic while simultaneously decreasing the coverage of multiloop circuits and messuring instruments 7. We now begin our introduction to the sources of the ‘magnetic field (Chapter 33) with a presertation of the field due to a single moving charge, and then move to the field due to a curtent element. This enables a better correspon- dence with the way magnetic fields are introduced in the previous chapter (treating the force on a single moving charge first end then the force on a curtent element). We also now provide a direct calculation of the axial field of a solenoid using the Biot~Savari law before repeating the calculation using Ampire’s law. 8. The introduction of the magnetic dipole moment has been delayed until Chapter 35 (Magnetic Properties of Ma- terials). This has been done in pert to avoid overloading stu- denis with new material in the first chapter on magnetic, fields as well as to provide a more coherent approach by in- troducing the magnetic dipole in the context in which it will be most directly applied. We have shortened somewhat the discussion of atomic and nuclear magnetism here. prefer- ring to delay a more detailed discussion until a later chapter following the introduction of some of the rudiments of atomic structure along with electron spin. 9. We have reconfigured Chapters 40, 41, 42, and 43 of the previous edition into Chapters 38 and 39 of the present edition. Chapter 38 now treats Maxwell's equations and their applications to electromagnetic waves, material that ‘was included in Chapters 40 and 41 of the fourth edition, Chapter 39 introduces properties of light waves, including reflection and retraction, and thus incorporates material that previously appeared in Chapters 41, 42, and 43. Image for- ‘mation by plane mirrors now appears in the following chap- ter (40), where it fits more naturally with the discussion of image formation by mirrors and lenses. 10. In the fourth edition, topics from modern physics ‘were “sprinkled” throughout the text, generally in sections labeled as “optional.” In this edition we continue to use ex- ‘amples from modern physics where appropriate throughout the text, but the separate sections on moder physics have been consolidated into Chapters 45-52, which treat topics from quantum physics and its applications to atoms, solids, and nuclei. We strongly believe that relativity and quantum, physics are essential parts of an introductory survey course ‘at this level, but that justice 1o these subjects is better ac- complished by a coherent, unified presentation rather than a collection of isolated expositions. As was the case in the fourth edition, we continue to place the chapter on special relativity among the classical mechanics chapters in Vol- ‘ume 1, which reflects our strong belief that special relativ- ity belongs squarely among the kinematics and mechanics cchapters dealing with classical physics. Chapters 45-48, ‘which treat quantum physics and its applications to atoms, have been substantially rewriten from the fourth edition. ‘Chapter 45 introduces the usual early experiments suggest- ing the particle-like properties of electromagnetic radiation. (thermal radiation, the photoelectric effect, Compton scat- tering). However, unambiguous evidence for the particle- ‘wave duality of light comes only from modern delayed cchoice experiments, which we now also treat in Chapter 45, ‘The rudiments of the Schridinger theory are now treated in Chapter 46, with detailed applications to potential wells ‘and to the hydrogen atom in Chapter 47. Chapter 48, which lueals atomic suucture, is similar to Chapter 32 of the fourth edition with the addition of new material on atomic ‘magnetism, ‘The endof-chapter material in this edition differs sig- nificantly from that of the previous edition. The previous problem sets (which were all keyed to chapter sections) hhave been carefully edited and placed into two groups: ex- cercises and problems. Exercises, which are keyed to text sections, generally represent direct applications of the ma- terial in the associated section. Their purpose is usually to help students become familiar with the concepts, important formulss, units and dimensions, and so forth. Problems, which are not keyed to text sections, often require use of concepts from different sections or even from previous chapters. Some problems call for the student to estimate or independently to locate the data needed to solve the prob- om In editing and grouping the exercises and problems, ‘we have also eliminated some problems from the previous dition. A problem supplement will incorporate mest of the ‘missing problems as well as a selection of new exercises and problems. As before, answers to odd-numbered exer- cises and problems are given in the text and those to the even-numbered exercises and problems can be found in the Instructor's Manual that is available to instructors. Multiple-choice questions and computer problems have also been added to the end-of-chapter material. The multi- ple-choice questions are generally conceptual in nature and ‘often call for unusual insights into the material. Answers to the multiple-choice questicns can be found in the instruc- tor's manual. The computer problems may require familiar- ity with spread-sheet techniques or with symbolic manipu- lation routines such as Maple or Mathematica. ‘The development of the ead-of-chapter material has been undertaken with the substantial assistance of Paul Stanley of California Lutheran University. We have been Fortunate to have had the benefits of his insights and cre- tivity in this project. We have striven to develop a textbook that offers as complete and rigorous a survey of introductory physics as is possible at this level. It is, however, important to assert that few (if any) instructors will want to follow the entire text from start to finish, especially in a one-year course. ‘There are many alternate pathways through this text. The instructor who wishes to teat fewer topics in greater depth (often called the “less is more” approach) will be able to se- lect from among these pathways. Some sections or subsec- tions are explicitly labeled as “optional” indicating that they can be skipped without loss of continuity. Depending ‘on the course design, other sections or even entire chapters can be skipped or treated lightly. The Instrucior’s Manual available as a companion volume, offers suggestions for ab- Dreviating the coverage. Even so, the complete presentation remains in the text where the curious student can seek out the omitted topics and be rewarded with a broader view of the subject. We hope that the text can thus be regarded as a sort of “road map” through physics; many roads, scenic or direct, can be taken, and all roads need not be utilized on the first journey. The eager traveler may be encouraged to return to the map to explore areas missed on previous jour- neys. The text is available in two volumes. Volume | covers kinematics, mechanics, and thermodynamics, the present ‘volume covers clectromagnetism, optics, and quantum physics and its applications.

Electromagnetic forces are responsible ‘for the structure of atoms and for the binding of atoms in molecules and solids. Many properties of materi als that we have studied so far are electromagnetic in their nature, such as the elasticity of solids and the surjace tension of liquids. The spring force, friction, and the normal force all originate with the electromag netic force between atoms. Among the examples of electromagnetism that we shall study are the force between electric charges, such as occurs between an electron and the nucleus in an atom; the motion of a charged body subject to an external electric jorce, suci as an electron in an oscilloscope beam; the flow of electric charges through circuits and the behavior of circuit elements; the force between permanent mognets and the properties of ‘magnetic materials; and electromagnetic radiation, which whimaiely leads to the study of optics, the nature ‘and propagation of light. In this chapter we begin with a discussion of electric charge, some properties of charged bodies, and the fundamental electric force between two charged bodies. 25-1 ELECTROMAGNETISM: A PREVIEW ‘What do the following have in common? 1. You turn on the light switch in your room, The con- sumpticn of fuel at a power plant produces electromagnetic, energy by causing a loop of electrically conducting wire to rotate in the vicinity of a magnet. Ultimately some of this energy is transferred to the elecrrons in the filament of your lightbulb, waich can transform the electrical energy into visible light. 2. You enter a command on your computer keyboard. A stream of electrons is formed to transmit your instructions There sre many thousands of possible pathways for the electrons through the computer circuitry, but most are blocked by electronic gates. Electrons can move only through the gates that have been opened by your command 567 so that the stream of electrons ceackes its destination and your command is executed, 3. You push the channel select button on the remote control of your TY set. Electromagnetic waves travel from the remote control unit to a receptor on the set, which then tunes the set to accept ancther electromagnetic wave that originates from a satellite orbiting high above the Earth ‘The waves from the satellite provide instructions for your set to use electric and magnetic forces to focus and direct a ‘beam of electrons that strikes the surface of the picture tube and produces a visible image. ‘The common factor in these diverse phenomena is that they all depend on forces that we describe as electric or ‘magnetle 10 control and disect the flow of energy or parti- cles. These forces form the basis of our study of eleciro- ‘magnetism. We will find in our study that all electromag- netic effects can be explained by a sot of four besic equations, called Maxwell's equations. These equations represent individual laws of electromagnetism, just a: we have previously discussed equations that represent New- tons’ laws of mechanics or the laws of thermodynamics. ‘Our study will first consider electric phenomena and then magnetic phenomena, Later we will show thet the two cannot be separated; certain electric phenomena product ‘magnetic efiects, and certain magnetic phenomena product electric effects. This leads us to unify electric and magnetic phenomena under the common name of electromagnetism. ‘The development of the laws of electromagnetism and their unification was a great triumph of 19th-century physics. ‘Their application has led directly toa great range of devi of practical use, such as motors, radios and televisions, radar, microwave ovens, and cellular phones. ‘The development of electromagnetic theory continued in the 20th century with three very significant advance- ‘ments. In 1905, Albert Einstein showed that, to a moving observer, electric effects could appear as magnetic effects, ‘and thus observers in relative motion could disagree in as- signing their measurements to electric or magnetic causes. This conclusion formed the basis of the special theory of relativity, which ultimately was to revolutionize our con- cepts of space and time. The second development was the introduction of a quantum theory of electromagnetism, called quantum electrodynamics, which reached its fruition around 1949 and enabled properties of the atom to be cal- culated with incredible precision, currently about 11 signifi- ‘cant figures. The third development of the 20th century was the unification of electromagnetism with another force, called the “weak” force, which is responsible for certain ra- 008C Elctric and magnetic minerals (ancient Greoks) 4600 AD Etre and magnetic atractons (Gibert) 1700 _ Force betwaen dlectre charges (Coulomb) eS +49co——}— invention of attery (alta) 1020 Currents deflact magnetic compass (Cerstod) Magnatic fields caused by currerts (Ampére) \Qtcentical ‘conduction (Ohm) \ Electric motor (Henry) ‘Currents induced by magnetic fields (Faraday) \ Equations of electromagnetism (Maxwell) ter 7S eects he) test //|\\ oscar ot easton onsen 007/ | \ toes Specal teary otreatty inten) 1040 ~ ~Quanum secttedynanics 1967 ~ ” soctovnal theory (Glashow, Weinberg, Salam) co FIGURE 25-1.

For our study of electric and ‘magnetic forees, however, the electroweak interaction does not yield anything new, and it is more convenient to con- sider the seperate electromagnetic interaction.

You may also observe that, nce the strands of hair are attracted to the comb and come into contact with it, they may no longer be attracted to it It seems reasonable to conclude that the attraction be- teen the comb and the hair isa result of some physical en- tity being transferred from one to the other when they rub together, with the same physical entity being transferred back again to neutralize the attraction when they come into contact. This physical entity is called electric charge, and today we understand this tansfer on the basis of electrons that can be removed from the atoms of one object and at- tacked to the atoms of the cher object. The transfor of electric charge by means of friction is @ commonly observed phenomenon. It was known to the an- cient Greeks, who observed that pieces of amber rubbed swith fur could attract bits of straw. When you walk across a carpet and are shocked by touching @ metal éoor knob, or ‘when a lighting flash stretches between a loud and the ground, you are observing the effects of this transfer of charge. ‘Whea we “cherge” an object (thet is, when we transfer charge to i), we find that it can exert fore: on another charged objest. Early observations that this force can be ei- ther attractive or repulsive led to the conclusion that there are two kinds of electrical charge, which are called positive and negative. Although effects resulting from the transfer of charge can be powerful, itis remarkable that they originate from the transfer of only a tiny fraction of the electric cherge that is contained in objects. Ordinary matter is made of electrically neutral atoms or molecules that contain equal amounts of positive charge (he mucleus) and negaive charge (the electrons). When two objects rub together, rel- atively few electons from the atoms of one object are The postive and negntive labels or electric charge wore chosen arbiter Aly by Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) who, among hs ober aecomplish- tutta may have enabled fis diplomatic triumphs in Fanee during the ‘American War of Independence, Thread > cc) FIGURE 25-2.

It is this slight upset of the balance between the enormous but equal amounts of positive and negative charge in an object that is responsible for most commonly observed electrical effects. ‘When we rub a plastic rod with fur, electwons are uans- fered to the rod; because it has an excess of electrons (which carry a negative charge), the rod becomes negatively charged. The fur now has « deficiency of electrons and so it is positively charged. We can see the attraction of the rod for individual strands of the fur, which results from the charge on each. In a similar way, we can rub a glass rod with silk and observe that both become charged and can at- tract one another. In each case, we have transferred a rela tively small number of electrons and upset the electrical neutrality ofthese objects. Let us charge a glass rod by rubbing one end of it with silk and then suspend it from a thread, asin Fig. 25-2. If we place a similarly charged glass rod nearby, we find that the two rods repel one another, as in Fig 25-2a, However, # we place a charged plastic rod (charged by rubbing with fur) nearby, he two rods attract one another, as in Fig. 25-20, We account for the existence of these two kinds of fores in tems of two kinds of charge. When plastic is, rubbed with fur, electrons are transferred to the plastic and it becomes negatively charged. When glass is rubbed with silk, electrons are transferred to the silk, leaving the glass with a deficiency of electrons and therefore 4 net positive charge. The forces observed in Fig. 25-2 can be summa- rized by the following rule: Charges of the same sign repel one another, and charges of the opposite sign attract one another. In Section 25-4, we put this rule into quantitative form, as, Coulomb's law of force. We consider only charges that are either at rest with respect to each other or moving very FIGURE 25-3.

These negatively charged toner particles are eventually attracted from their carrier beads to & positively charged latent image of the document 1o be copied, which is formed on a rotating drum. A charged sheet of paper then attracts the toner particles, from the drum to itself, after which they are heat-used in place to make the final copy. The act electric charge of an object is usually repre- sented by the symbol q. The charge is a scalar quantity. It cean he positive or negative, depending on whether the ob- ject has a net positive or negative charge. Electric charge is ‘measured in units of coulombs (C). The coulomb is a very large unit of charge: it takes about 6 X 10" electrons to make one coulomb of charge. ‘The coulomb cannot be derived from previously defined units. Because electric charge is a new quantity, we are free to define its basic unit in any convenient way. One possible way would be in terms of the force exerted between 1wo standard charges at a given separation, such as the quantity Of charge thet exerts a force of one newton on a similar charge a distance of ene meter away. However, the force ‘between static charges is difficult to measure, and so in practice itis more useful to define the coulomb in terms of the magnetic force between current-carrying wires (which is discussed in Chapter 33). This force can be measured more precisely than the electric force between static 370 CHAPTER 25 / ELECTRIC CHARGE AND COULOMB'S LAW charges. It is therefore more convenient to define an SI base Unit in tems of curret (rate of flow of cleric charge per Unit time). The coulomb as a unit for electric charge is then a derived unit, obained from the fundamental units of cur- rent ané time (see Appendix A) Electric Charge Is Quantized ‘When we transfer electric charge from one object to an- other, the transfer camot be done in arbitrarily small units. ‘That is, the flow of charge as a current is not a continuous flow, bat is made up of discrete elements.* Experiments show that the electric charge always exists only in quanti ties that are integer multiples of a certain elementary quan- tity of charge e. That is, gunmen 22,83, 51) “where ( four significant Sgures) 1.62 x 10°. ‘The elementary charge e is one of the fundamental com- stants of nature whose experimental value has been deter- ‘mined to an uncertainty of about 4 pars in 10'. The eleciron and the proton are examples of commonly occurring particles that each carry one fundamental unit of charge. The clectron has a charge of — e and the proton has a charge of +. Some particles, such as the neutzon, carry rno net electric charge. Other elementary particles are known that carry charges that are small multiples of o, ust ally + 1, +2, or * 3, Eack particle has a corresponding an- tiparticle, which has the same mass but the opposite elec: ‘ric charge: the anticlectron, which is known as the positron, has a charge of ~e. Antiparticles do not com- ‘monly exist in nature, but can be exeated in decays and re- actions of nuclei and elementary particles. Equation 25-1 tells us that itis possible to have a net charge on an object of + 10e or —6e but newer 3576. When the values of a property are restricted to discrete ‘multiples of a basic quantity, we say that the propery is quantized ‘Because the elementary charge is small, under ordinary circumstances we are not aware of the discrete nature of the flow of charge. For example, in a wire of an electronic cir- cuit in which small eurrens of one milliampere are typical, 6 X 10 electrons pass through ary cross section of the ‘wire every second! ‘Ordinary atoms are electrically neutral, which means thet they contain equal quantities of postive and negative charge.

For example, if we could remove all of the electrons from an atom of uranium (Z = 92), we would ereate a particle with a charge of +92e, Under certin circumstances, we ean even attach an exra electron to a neutral atom, creating & negatively charged ion ‘Although we believe electrons to be fundamental parti- cles with no substructure, protons are not fundamental par ticles. They are made up of more elementary entities called quarks, The quarks are assigned fractional eletric charges of —le and +2. The proton is campoted of three quarks, two with chirges of +e and one with charge of —‘e, ‘which ada up to a net charge of ~ , Experimental evden for the existence of quarks inside the proton is very strong (for example, high-energy electrons can be made to scatter from the fractionally charged quarks inside the proton, but, no matter how violently the protons re made to calide, no free quark his been released. AS a resul, no free particle with a factional charge has ever been abeerved. Th fact can be understood if the attractive fare that ene quark ex- ents on another increases with their seperation. This is in contrast to the electromagnetic and gravitational forces, both of which decrease as the distance between a pair of in terasting bodies increases, SAMPLE PROBLEM 25-1.
