1. How rapidly is work being done in an electrical circuit? WORK TIME POWER = What electrical unit is most closely associated with work (energy)? What electrical unit involves time? What is the unit of POWER?

4. A 1440 W microwave oven is designed to operate using a 120 V power source. What is the resistance of this appliance? 1) 0.1  2) 10  3) 72  4) need to know the current 5) none of these

5. At age 67, in his autobiography, Einstein wrote vividly of his recollection of a new toy from his father: a compass.

6. Thales of Miletus 600 BC “Lodestone”

7. Lodestone first discovered near the ancient city of Magnesia in Asia Minor The mineral ore is called “magnetite” Electrostatics Magnetism • attracts dust, hair, • plastic, paper scraps, • dried grass, leaves, • (small bits of anything) • attracts only metals of • iron, nickel, & cobalt • lodestone always • exhibits this “charge” • amber or glass charges • when rubbed • stroking (in one direction) • will magnetize metals • CONDUCTION can • charge other objects • induced magnetism is • short-lived • induced charges are • long-lived

8. 'When troops encountered gloomy weather or dark nights, and the directions of space could not be distinguished, they made use of the south-pointing fish to identify the directions. A thin leaf of iron is cut into the shape of a fish two inches long and half an inch broad, having a pointed head and tail. This is then heated in a charcoal fire, and when it has become thoroughly red-hot, it is taken out by the head with iron tongs and placed so that its tail points due north. In this position it is quenched with water in a basin, so that its tail is submerged for several tenths of an inch. It is then kept in a tightly closed box. To use it, a small bowl filled with water is set up in a windless place, and the fish is laid as flat as possible on the water surface so that it floats, whereupon its head will point south.' Tseng Kung-Liang, Compendium of Important Military Techniques 1044 AD

9. 1296 Petrus Peregrinus (French physicist) Any magnet has two “poles” opposite ends at which all the magnetic attraction seems to be concentrated.

10. S N Electric Dipole Magnetic Dipole like poles repel unlike poles attract How do the magnets exert forces on each other? via the magnetic field -

11. N S

13. Magnetic Monopoles? • Does there exist an isolated magnetic charge? • we would call this a magnetic monopole • it would have aNorSmagnetic “charge” • How might we find this isolated magnetic charge? Simple, right? Cut a bar magnet in half: All you get is a bunch of little magnets! No attempt yet has been successful in finding magnetic monopoles in nature

16. N S

17. The North pole of a small magnet (compass) points towards geographic North because Earth’s magnetic South pole is up there!!

18. Magnetic north is not exactly geographic north. The magnetic poles drift and occasionally reverse polarity!

19. Magnetic declination or “dip angle” allows your lattitude to be determined.

20. 1813 Hans Christian Oersted Danish physician and researcher writes a philosophical essay predicting a connection between electricity & magnetism 1820 Oersted discovers while STATIC CHARGE has no effect on a magnet (compass) nearby CURRENT twists a magnet sideways! - +

21. We saw that B I A B-field must surround the current carrying wire like 2 1 3

22. A current travels out toward you I through a conducting wire The B-field surrounding this wire is best represented by 3 1 2

23. A current travels out toward you I through a conducting wire The B-field surrounding this wire is best represented by 3 1 2

25. Looking down a length of wire, the magnetic field lines show that the current must be A.coming out of the screen at you. B.zero. C.going into the screen away from you.

26. The B-field at POINT points A B C A I B C • up. 2. down. • 3. left. 4. right. • 5. into the screen. • 6.out of the screen. • 7. is zero.

27. CurrentEffect Fatal? 0.001 Ampere mild shock no 0.005 Ampere painful shock no <0.010 Ampere tingles no 0.010 Ampere paralysis of motor muscles no 0.020 Ampere threshold of pain (cannot let go!) no 0.030 Ampere breathing becomes labored no 0.100 Ampere death due to fibrillation seconds 0.200 Ampere no fibrillation, but severe seconds burns and breathing stops >0.200 Ampere heart stops seconds 1.000 Ampere serious burns instantly Galvani was correct in so far as our central nervous system is in fact a complex electrical circuit: Neurons fire electrical pulses along synapses. Muscle fibers contract in response to these signals.

28. Some Answers (5) 600 Watts P = IV QUESTION 1 Since P = V2/R, P  1/R. QUESTION 2 Greater resistance: (1) the 25 W bulb QUESTION 3 The greater current: (2) 100 W bulb The bulb with the smallest resistance must draw the greater current! Also: since P = IV, P  I. (2) 10  QUESTION 4

29. There can’t possibly be any way nature distinguishes the wire’s top from bottom, left side from right. 2 QUESTION 5 Imagine just rolling the wire on its side. Current still flows in the same direction; the magnetic field must remain unchanged. 2 Which we’ll remember by a hand rule! QUESTION 6 2 We certainly expect the magnetic field to weaken with distance from the wire! QUESTION 7 A.coming out of the screen. QUESTION 8 To curling the fingers of your right hand in the direction of the field lines, your thumb must point away from the screen. 6.out of the screen. QUESTION 9,10,11 Just ride your closed hand along the curve in the wire, your thumb pointing along the current’s direction. Your curled fingers come out of the loop at all three points.
