Inductance ¥ Inductors and inductance, self-induction N Φ ∝ i ⇒ N Φ = L i L def = N Φ i , 1henry = 1H = 1T ·m2/A Equivalent definition: self-induced emf EL = −L di dt the sign gives direction (from EL = −N dΦ/dt) (for solenoid L = μ0n2Al). Direction of induced emf can also be obtained from Lenz’s Law. ¥ Mutual induction E2 = −N2dΦB2 dt , N2ΦB2 =M21i1 E2 = −M21 di1 dt , E1 = −M12 di2 dt , M21 =M12 =M Phys 2306 rev—F-YY-f07 2 ¥ RL circuits.

I 0 and ϕ0 are of no concern here; they can be computed from initial conditions. We are interested here the case of i = I cosωt (steady state solution), • Main problem: given that E = V cos (ωt+ ϕ), • Find amplitude I of the current i • Find the phase difference ϕ between applied emf E and the current i • Analyze how physical quantities depend on V and ϕ ¥ Results: the amplitude I of the steady state oscillations is I = Vq R2 + (XL −XC)2 = V Z (2) Phys 2306 rev—F-YY-f07 6 where XL = ωL is the inductive reactance, XC = 1/(ωC) is the capacitive reactance, Z = q R2 + (XL −XC)2 is the impedance, and the phase constant ϕ is given by tanϕ = XL −XC R or, cosϕ = R Z . (3) • XL > XC ⇒ ϕ > 0, L dominates C and i lags behind E • XL < XC ⇒ ϕ < 0, L is dominated by C and i leads E Average (over time) energy dissipated in the resistor is Pav = 1 2 V I cosϕ . (4) Given V and I, maximum is obtained for cosϕ = 1, i.e., for XL = XC (resonance). • (2) and (3) are obtained as follows: vR, vL and vC are computed in terms of i and substituted into the circuit equation (1) yielding VR cosωt+ VL cos (ωt+ π/2) + VC cos (ωt− π/2) = V cos(ωt+ ϕ) , (5) where VR = I R, VL = I XL and VC = I XC . Then equation (5) is solved using phasor diagram. ¥ Power and average power. Instantaneous rate of energy dissipation in the resistor P = i2R = (I cosωt)2R = I2R cos2 ωt . Phys 2306 rev—F-YY-f07 7 This yields for average power Pav = 1 2 I2R = I2rmsR , and then (4) and Pav = VrmsIrms cosϕ . The subscript rms stands for root mean square; here Vrms = V√ 2 , Irms = I√ 2 .

Electromagnetic waves; Energy, Momentum ¥Maxwell’s Equations and EM Waves • Sect. 29.7 Displacement current (iD) and Maxwell-Ampère lawI B·dl = μ0iC + μ0iD where iD = ²0 dΦE dt Phys 2306 rev—F-YY-f07 10 • Ordinary beam of light is not polarized Malus’ law : I = I0 cos2 θ • Polarization by reflection; Brewster’s Law • The refracted beam is only partially polarized, unless angle of incidence (and re- flection) is equal to polarizing (θp) (sometimes called Brewster’s angle and denoted θB). Ray reflected at angle θp is completely polarized parallel to the surface and perpendicular to the refracted ray. θp = tan −1 nb na ¥ Light as a wave: Huygens’ Principle; Huygens’ Wavelets. • Huygens principle: every point of a wave-front serve as point sources of spherical secondary wavelets. At time t the new position of the wave front will be that of a surface tangent to these secondary wavelets. (Simplification (approximation) of Maxwell’s theory: scalars instead of vectors) • Wave fronts, and rays • wavelength and index of refraction λn = λ n Ch 35. Interference, Double-Slit, Young’s Experiment ¥ Superposition and Interference: plane waves: two coherent sources Recall. Two waves of equal amplitude, the result of their interference depends on their phase difference (ϕ) or, equivalently, path difference (PD, ∆L) ∆ϕ = 2π ∆L λ , PD = ∆L = ∆ϕ 2π λ Interference Phase Difference ∆ϕ P.D. ∆L Constructive integer × 2π m · 2π m · λ Destructive odd multiple of π (2m+ 1) · π (2m+ 1) · λ2 Phys 2306 rev—F-YY-f07 11 ¥ Young’s double-slit experiment.

(as in the case of mechanical waves): phase changes by 180◦ on reflection of light (EM wave) from material with higher index of refraction (optically more dense material); no phase change in reflection from material with lower index of refraction. • “Nonreflective” coating Ch 36 Diffraction Please go to my class notes–posted on Bb, for more details. ¥ Diffraction and coherence. • Diffraction: result of interference of light from many coherent sources • Fresnel and Fraunhofer: near and far field diffraction.
