PREFACE TO VOLUME 2

[ne
1960 as Physics for Students of Science and Engineering by
David Halliday and Robert Resnick. 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. Supplements available include:

INDEX L-1ELECTRIC CHARGE AND
COULOMB’S LAW
@ begin here a detailed study of electromagnet-
ism, which will extend throughout most of the remainder of this text. 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 besicequations, 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-

particles Jusi as electric and magnetic effects were unified
into the electromagnetic interaction, so electromagnetic and
weak effects were shown in the 1960s to be unified under
the eleciroweak interaction. 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.

25-2 ELECTRIC CHARGE
‘After you pass a plastic comb through your hair a few
times, you will find thet the comb can exet a force on indi-
‘vidual strands of your hair. 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

transferred to the other; most of the electrons remain
undisturbed. 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

slowly, restriction that defines the subject of eleciro-
staties.
Electrical forces between charged bodies have many in-
dustrial applicatioas, including clecuostaiie paint spraying
and powder coating, fly-ash precipitation, nonimpact ink-jet
printing, and photocopying. Figure 25-3 for example,
shows a tiny carrier bead in a photocopying machine, cov-
cred with particles of black powder called toner, that stick
to the carrier bead by electrostatic forces. These negatively
charged toner particles are eventually attracted from their
carrier beads to & positively charged latent image of the

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 static370 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,

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. The nucleus of the atom contains Z protons (where
Z is called the atomic number of the ator) and thus @
charge of +Ze. In @ neutral atom, Z negatively charged

vidi aims and mslcules mater is discrete, Simin, the “electric
electrons circulate about the nucleus, I soften possible to
remove one or more electrons from an atoc, cresting an fon
that has an excess postive charge of +e, +2e, ... . 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,
