Brainstorming 1. What is the process of gaining knowledge in physics? Experimental knowledge I. Sensory perception: sensory perception is perhaps the dominant source of experiential knowledge, it immediately raises a critical question. We gather knowledge by seeing, touching hearing, etc. II. Introspection: Introspection is like a sixth sense that looks into the most intimate parts of our minds, which allows us to inspect how we are feeling and how our thoughts are operating. If I go to a doctor complaining of an aching back, she’ll ask me to describe my pain. Through introspection I then might report, “Well, it’s a sharp pain that starts right here and stops right here.” The doctor herself cannot directly experience what I do and must rely on my introspective description. III. Memory: a memory is like a recording device that captures events that one can experience more or less in the order that they occur. IV. Testimony: Testimonies from written sources are usually more reliable than 5 Physics Student Text Book oral sources, but much depends on the integrity of the author, publisher, and the methods of fact-gathering. Non-Experiential Knowledge Scientific method Examples of Scientific Method in Physics Experiment: You decide to heat water at different altitudes and record the boiling temperature.

Transportation vehicles such as automobiles, airplanes and space shuttles could not be constructed without the help of physics experts. Physics is also useful for military purposes, informing the design of weapons. Many of the scientists responsible for inventing the atomic bomb were physicists, and today physicists are involved in the creation of nuclear weapons. Physics communities are an organized group of persons associated together for scientific purposes. This organization is established at the level of national, continent as well as worldwide based on their aims. The scientific method is an ordered series of steps to acquire knowledge based on experimental evidence. The mission of physics is to advance science, engineering, and innovation throughout the world for the benefit of all and serving Society. Physics have a lot of job opportunities in the fields of Astronomy, healthcare, engineering, energy, technology, meteorology, etc New discoveries of Exoplanets, Black hole, Quantum cryptography, High energy physics, Gravitational wave, Global warming, James Webb Space Telescope, etc have been seen in recent years.

Adding two collinear vectors F1 F2 R 26 Figure 2.11 Vectors in the same direction R Rv = Fv1 + Fv2 Fv1 Fv2 v R Figure 2.12 Vectors in opposite directions Exercise 2.2 The magnitudes of two vectors Av and Bv are 13 units and 9 units, respectively. What are the largest and smallest possible values for the magnitude of the v = Av + Bv ? resultant vector R Example 2.2 A man rows his boat along the direction of flow of a river (downstream). If the boat can sail in still water at 0.50 m/s, and the river flows at 0.30 m/s, what is the resultant velocity of the boat? Let the magnitude of velocity of the river be A and that of the boat be B. A = 0.30 m/s B = 0.50m/s The resultant velocity is Rv = Av + Bv 27 Physics Student Text Book Since both vectors are along the same direction, the magnitude of the resultant velocity is given by: R = A + B = 0.30 m/s + 0.50m/s. R = 0.80 m/s. The direction of the resultant is along the direction of the river flow. Therefore, the resultant velocity is: v = 0.8m/s, downstream R Exercise 2.3 If the man in Example 2.2 rows his boat upstream (in opposite direction to the river flow), what would his resultant velocity be? Example 2.3 Two men are pushing a block along a horizontal surface by exerting oppositely directed forces of magnitudes 200 N and 100 N respectively, as shown in Figure 2.13. What is the resultant force applied on the block by the two men? Figure 2.13 Two men pushing the block in opposite directions Solution: The two men applied two different forces on the same block. Let the magnitude of the force exerted by the man on the right be F1 = 200 N and that of the man on the left be F2 = 100 N. Rv = Fv1 + Fv2 The magnitude of the resultant force is R = F1-F2 = 200N - 100N = 100 N The direction of the resultant is along the direction of the 200 N (larger) force. v = 100N, toward the right. R 28 Adding two perpendicular vectors Recall Figure 2.14 A Right-angled triangle c 2 = a 2 + b 2, c = a 2 + b 2 opposite b sin i = hypotenuse = c adjacent a cos i = hypotenuse = c opposite b tan i = adjacent = a Example 2.4 An ant, starting at a point, walked through a distance of 40 cm due South and then 50 cm due West. What is the resultant displacement of the ant from its starting point? Solution Placing the tail of the vectors at the origin of coordinates, the vector diagram of the motion is shown in Figure 2.15. East Figure 2.15 Vector diagram of motion of the ant 29 Physics Student Text Book using pythagorean theorem, the magnitude of the resultant displacement is 2 S = S12 + S22 = (40cm) 2 + (50cm) = 4100cm2 = 64cm Direction of the reultant displacement is shown by the angle i , where opposite 40cm tan i = adjacent = 30cm = 0.8, i = 38.6 o the resultant is Sv = 64cm, 38.6 o South of West Components of a vector Av Av Av Av x Av y Av Av = Av x + Av y y y 𝐴𝐴⃗ 𝐴𝐴⃗ 𝐴𝐴⃗y 𝐴𝐴⃗y α θ x x o o 𝐴𝐴⃗x 𝐴𝐴⃗x (a) (b) v x and Av y Figure 2.16 Vector \vec{A} in terms of its vector components A Av Ax = A cos i Ay = A sin i 30 Note that: In finding the x- and y- components of a vector, we associate cosine with the x-component and sine with the y-component, as in Figure 2.16a. This as- sociation is due to the fact that we chose to measure the angle a with respect to the positive x-axis. If the angle were measured with respect to the y-axis, as in Figure 2.16b, the components would be given by Ax = A sin a and Ay = A cos a Key terms Component of a vector: the projection of a vector on the coordinate axes. Resolution of a vector: Breaking a vector into its components Example 2.5 A force vector of magnitude of 35 N is pushing on a box placed on the horizontal ground as shown in Figure 2.17a. If the force makes an angle of 40o above the negative x axis, what are the x and y components of the force? Figure 2.17 A pushing force Solution Force F can be A placed on the xy plane as shown in Figure 2.17b. Remember that translation of a vector does not alter the magnitude and direction of the vector. The x component of the force is Fx = F cos 40o = 35 N x (0.766) = 26.8 N, and the y component is Fy = -F sin 40o = -35 N x (0.643) = -22.5 N Finding the resultant of vectors by component method Figure 2.18 Vectors \vec{A} and \vec{B} added by Component Method 31 Physics Student Text Book Rv = Rv x + Rv y, where Rv x = Av x + Bv x, and Rv y = Av y + Bv y R = Rx2 + Ry2 v x Rv y R i = tan -1 c m Ry Ry tan i = R x Rx Attention ã if both Rx and Ry are positive numbers, angle i is above the +x axis ã if Rx is negative number and Ry is positive number, angle i is above the -x axis ã if both Rx and Ry are negative numbers, angle i is below the -x axis ã if Rx is positive number and Ry is negative number, angle i is be- low the +x axis Exercise 2.4 Under what circumstances would a vector have components that are equal in magnitude? Exercise 2.5 A vector has an x-component of - 35 units and a y-component of 40 units. Find the magnitude and direction of the vector considering that the positive x direction indicates East and that the positive y direction indicates North. Example 2.6 Consider two displacement vectors Av and Bv of magnitudes 100 m and 200 m respectively, Figure 2.21. Find the magnitude and direction of the resultant displacement vector. 32 Figure 2.19 Solution We first resolve the vectors into their x and y components. Using trigonometry, we get Ax = A cos 50o = 100(0.643) m = 64.3 m, and Ay = A sin 50o = 100(0.766) m = 76.6 m Bx = -B cos 30o = -200 (0.866) m = -173.2 m, and By = B sin 30o = 200(0.50)m = 100 m The vector components of the resultant are R v x = Av x + Bv x , and Rv y = Av y + Bv y , where Rx = Ax + Bx = 64.3 m + (-173.2 m) = -108.9 m and Ry =Ay + By = 76.6 m + 100 m = 176.6 m. Then we place the components of the resultant on the xy-plane as in Figure 2.19 (b). The magnitude of the resultant is R = Rx2 + Ry2 = (- 108.9m) 2 + (176.6m) 2 = 207.5m and i = tan -1 b 108.9m l = tan -1 (1.62) = 58.3c 176.6m Therefore, Rv = 207.5m, i = 58.3c above the negative x axis Exercise 2.6 Vector Av has a magnitude of 30 units and points in the positive y-direction. When vector Bv is added to Av , the resultant vector Av + Bv points in the negative y-direction with a magnitude of 10 units. Find the magnitude and direction of Bv. 33 Physics Student Text Book Example 2.7 A girl walked across a large field through the following distance in the given order:72 m toward 32o East of North, 57 m toward 370South of West, 18 m toward South. Find the magnitude and direction of the resultant displacement of the girl? Solution The displacement vectors are placed on the xy-plane as shown in Figure 2.20. (a) (b) Figure 2.20 (a) The actual path the girl followed, (b) Vector diagram Solution The components of the displacement vectors are calculated as in Table 2.2 below. Table 2.2 x component y component S1 72 (sin 32 ) m = 38.2 m o 72 (cos 32o) m = 61.1 m S2 -57(cos 37o) m = - 45.6 m -57 (sin37o) m = -34.2 m S3 0m -18 m Rx = S1x + S2x + S3x = -7.4 m Rx = S1y + S2y + S3y = 8.9 m R = Rx2 + R y2 = (- 7.4m) 2 + (8.9m) 2) = 11.6m (8.9m) and i = tan -1 (7.4m) = tan -1 (1.2) = 50.2c above the nagative x axis Therefore, Rv = 11.6m, i = 50.2c N of W Did you know? Analytic methods of vector algebra are used routinely in mechanics, electricity, and mag- netism. They are important mathematical tools of physics. 34 Exercise 2.7 A car travels 20 km due north and then 25 km in a direction 60° West of North. Use both graphical and algebraic methods to find the magnitude and direction of a single vector that gives the net effect of the car’s trip. Unit Vectors ^ it Figure 2.21 Unit vectors on the xy-plane Av x = Ax it Av y = Ay jt Av = Ax it + Ay jt Av = Ax it + Ay jt Bv = Bx it + By jt Rv = Av + Bv Rv = (Ax it + Ay jt) + (Bx it + By jt) = (Ax + Bx) it + (Ay + By j) jt = Rx it + Ry jt 35 Physics Student Text Book Av = Ax it + Ay jt Av Av UvA = A Example 2.8 Given force vector Fv = (12it - 16jt) N , what is a unit vector along Fv ? solution Fv 12it - 16jt 12it - 16it UvF = F = 2 2 = 20 = (0.6it - 0.8jt) N 12 + (- 16) See that the magnitude of UvF is UF = ]0.6g2 + (0.8) 2 = 1 Example 2.9 Vector Av has x and y components of 4 units and 2 units, respectively and vector Bv has the corresponding components of -9 units and 3 units respectively. Find (a) the vector components of their resultant, (b) the magnitude and direction of their resultant. solution Given Av = Ax it + Ay jt = (4it + 2jt) units Bv = Bx it + By jt = (- 9it + 3jt) units The resultant Rv = (Ax + Bx) it + (Ay + By j) jt = (4 - 9) it + (2 + 3) jt = (- 5jt + 5jt) units (a) The x and y components of Rv are = Rx =- 5 units, Rv x = Rx it =- 5it Ry =- 5 units, Rv y = Ry ijt =- 5jt (b) the magniture of Rv is R = Rx2 + Ry2 = (- 5) 2 + 52 = 50 = 5 2 units i = tan -1 c R m = tan -1 b 5 l = 45c Ry 5 x As R v is along the negative x direction and Rv y is along the positive y direction, we see that Rv is in the second quadrant and it makes angle of 45o above the negative x axis. 36 Example 2.10 An unknown vector D is added to vector C = (- 4it + 5jt) units and the resultant R = C + D has x and y components of each -1 and 1 units, respectively Find the magnitude of the unknown vector. Solution Given Cv = (- 4it + 5jt), Dv = (Dx it + Dy jt) and Rv = (- it + jt) For Rv = Cv + Dv , we have Rx = Cx + Dx, - 1 =- 4 + Dx, Dx = 3 units Ry = Cy + Dy, 1 = 5 + Dy, Dy =- 4 units Vector Dv = (3it - 4jt) units Exercise 2.8 The vector sum Pv + Qv is a unit vector along the positive x axis. If Pv = it - jt , find Qv. Exercise 2.9 If vector 0.4 it + b jt is a unit vector, then what is the value of b? Example 2.11 Traditional Maresha A farmer is ploughing the field using traditional Maresha (plow) pulled by two oxen Figure 2.24a. The two animals are pulling the beam (Mofer) with a force Fv2 of 1200 N at angle of 40o from the horizontal and the farmer’s force Fv1 on the handle (Erf) is 150 N at 60o above the horizontal as shown in Figure 2.24b. Find the resultant horizontal pulling force exerted by the farmer and the oxen on the Maresha? At this point assume all the forces are acting at point K. For the whole system to work the resultant downward vertical force must be slightly greater than the upward. Explain why. 37 Physics Student Text Book Figure 2.22 (a) A farmer plowing his (b) Schematic diagram of the Maresha farm Solution The forces that are acting on the Maresha are the force exerted by the farmer on the Erf, Fv1 , and the pulling force on the Mofer, Fv2. Both Fv1 and Fv2 have x components and the sum of these components gives the resultant horizontal pulling force. Both F1x and F2x are along the positive x direction. Fx = F1x + F2x = F1 cos i1 + F2 cos i2 = 150N cos 60c + 1200N cos 40c = 75N + 919N = 994.3 N. If the upward forces on the marseha exceed the downward focrces(which is the sum of weight of the plow and the downward component of the force exerted on the Erf), the maresha will be lifted above the ground and plaughing will not be possible. 1.

State the condition where the vector sum of two vectors is a null vector. 3.

In contrast, a quantity described by both a magnitude (the “how much” or “how big” part) and direction in space is a vector. Depending on their direction, magnitude and orientation we can categorize vectors as collinear, coplanar, parallel, antiparallel, equal, null, unit vector etc. Graphical method of vector addition makes use of translation of vectors. Triangle law – Vectors are connected head to tail to form a triangle. Parallelogram law – vectors are connected tail to tail and a parallelogram is constructed using the vectors as its sides. Polygon law - used to find the resultant of more than two vectors. The vectors are joined head to tail without regard to the order they are taken. The vector drawn from the tail of the first vector to the head of the final vector represents the resultant. Analytic methods of vector addition/subtraction allow us to find resultant of sums or differences of vectors without having to draw them. They are exact, contrary to graphical methods which are approximate. The resultant of two vectors in the same direction has a magnitude equal to the sum of the magnitude of each of the vectors and it is directed along the direction of any one of the vectors. The resultant of two vectors at right angles has a magnitude equal to the square root of the sum of the squares of the magnitude of each of the vectors and the direction of the resultant is determined by the angle it makes with respect to a reference line (commonly the x axis). A unit vector vector along the x axis is denoted by it and that along the y axis is denoted by jt. A vector that is represented by its vector components as A v = Av x + Av y v can also be represented interms of its components as A = Ax it + Ay jt. If Rv is the resultant of Av and Bv then Rv = Rx it + Ry jt , where Rx = Ax + Bx and Ry = Ay + By. The angle that Rv makes with the x axis is i = tan -1 c Ry m v and Bv is defined as Av.Bv = AB cos Rx The scalar product of two vectors A i and also v v A : B =AxBx+AyBy. The scalar product of two vectors can be used to determine the angle between the vectors and it can also be used to determine the component of one of the vectors in the direction of the other. 44 END OF UNIT 2 QUESTION 1.
