Things to Buy
(1) Text = Tipler and Mosca, Physics for Scientists & Engineers, UW Custom edition, 2008, Volume 2 (both volumes are needed for 123). Both volumes = Same as the full 6th edition chaps 141. Can Just Use E-book on WebAssign if You Wish. (2) Tutorial Book: 2nd ed. Tutorials in Introductory Physics, by McDermott and Shaffer. Two volumes used all year. (3) Lab manual: PHYS 122 Lab Manual, Autumn 2012 edition. Available at Univ Bookstore. Labs & Tutorials begin next week. (4) Clicker: H-ITT transmitter. Radio Frequency model sold by the bookstore, but any 13 button H-ITT RF versions will work. (5) Calculator: Any calculator that has trig functions and logarithms will work.

Course Goals
Be Able To
Explain the Basic Principles of Physics Distinguish Between (Among) the Many Physics Concepts and Definitions Connect Physics Concepts to Real World Behavior Exploit the Basic Principles of Physics to Become Adept at Solving Quantitative Problems Have Some Fun Along the Way

Keys to Success
Focus on Understanding How Each New Topic Fits into the Pattern of Your Previous Physics Knowledge. Never Let Anything Go By Without Making Sense. If You Do Not Understand, Ask Immediately, Or Make a Note to Ask Later. Read My "TIPS ON LEARNING PHYSICS" Under RESOURCES Within the WebAssign System. Problem Solving is Learned by Thinking About What You Are Doing (& Why) While You Are Doing It. Be Slow and Thoughtful When Doing Homework. Get Fast Only When Approaching an Exam.

Electricity
Imagine a Force Like Gravity
Except Both Attractive and Repulsive

Would Require Something Akin to Negative Mass


But Mass is Always Positive (as Far as We Know)

Nevertheless There is an Interaction (Force) Between Objects That


Can be Attractive or Repulsive That Decreases With Separation Like: r 2

Called Electric Force

Q2: We Have Studied Motion Excluding Electrical Forces, But Including Gravity. Why? A. In General Electrical Forces are Weaker Than Gravitational Forces. B. Electrical Force Dies Out Faster with r. C. There Are No Electric Charges in Most Objects. D. Most Objects Are Electrically Neutral. E. Our Previous Results Are Bogus.

Basic Electricity
There Are Two Kinds of Charge
Named Positive and Negative by Ben Franklin

Charge is Conserved
Means Cannot be Created nor Destroyed

Electron Charge: Charge is Additive


e = 1.602 1019 C

Proton Charge: Same Magnitude, Opposite Sign Neutral Atoms Have Net Charge = 0 Charges Can be Separated by Electron Transfer Conductors: Electrons Can Move. Insulators: Not. Charges Exert Electric Forces on Each Other
