Physics 222 Exam Review
Outline
• Overview/Mind-map• What each equation does• Practice Problems
Sorry about the boring theme.
• I couldn’t find a suitable theme that I liked, that didn’t mess up my text.
• However, looking at green is said to increase creativity and stimulate brain function. May use this later.

Overview
• Fluids• Electric force -> Electric field• Potential energy -> Electric potential• E->V and V->E• Capacitors and energy stored inside them• Resistors
𝑃=𝐹𝐴
• This is the definition of Pressure: Force/Area
𝑃=𝑃0+𝜌𝑔𝑦• Used to calculate the pressure at a depth of y
in some medium, usually water.• Example: 5 m deep under the water, pressure=
𝑑𝑉𝑑𝑡
=𝐴𝑣=𝑐𝑜𝑛𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑡
• This is the continuity equation for fluid flow.• In English, it means that the amount of stuff
going through a pipe is constant, so shrinking the pipe means that the water will go faster.
𝑃+𝜌𝑔𝑦+12𝜌𝑣2=𝑐𝑜𝑛𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑡
• Also known as Bernoulli’s Equation• Classic problem: calculating velocity of water
shooting out of a hole in a container.– In the case that the radius of the hole is small, the
velocity at the bottom simplifies to where y is the distance from the water level to the hole.

• Just like electric force, but without the test charge q0. It’s still a vector.

• Electric field of a point charge.
Electric field lines go from + to -.
• Also, line density indicates field strength
𝒑=¿𝑄∨𝒅• Dipole moment, BY DEFINITION• Notice: Dipole moment points from negative
to positive….opposite of the direction E points
𝝉=𝒑×𝑬• Torque on a dipole by the external electric
field– Note that E is not the E produced by the dipole– E is external
• Torque is maximum when dipole moment and E are perpendicular.
𝑈=−𝒑 ⋅𝑬• Potential energy is minimum (also called stable
equilibrium) when two things are true:– Dipole moment is parallel to E– Dipole moment points in the same direction as E.
• Potential energy is maximum (also called unstable equilibrium) when two things are true:– Dipole moment is parallel to E.– Dipole moment points in the opposite direction as E.
Questions?
• Also known as Gauss’s Law• Really there are two equations here…but
they’re both equally valid…always.
Steps in solving Gauss’s Law Problems
– Draw a picture of the object. Pick a good Gaussian surface.
– Write down the expression of Gauss’s Law that involves the dot product between E and A. (If E is perpendicular to A, the flux is 0 for that surface. Otherwise, use symmetry to get rid of the integral.)
– Write down the expression of Gauss’s Law that involves the total charge q.
– Set the two expressions equal to each other and eliminate variables.

• Electric field a distance r away from a long wire with charge density .
𝑬=±𝜎2𝜖
�̂�
• This one is especially important.• This is the electric field anywhere away from a
large sheet of charge.• Notice that the electric field doesn’t depend
on distance, and always points perpendicular to the surface.
• Classic problem: What is the electric field between two parallel plates of charge Q and area A?
• Answer: Since you have two plates of opposite charge, the E fields add, and thus…
•
• These relations let you go from either E to V or vice-versa. If you know one, you can calculate the other.
𝑊=− Δ𝑈=−𝑞0 Δ𝑉This equation can be used to:• If you’re given you can find the work done.• If a point charge of charge q0 goes through a
potential difference of it tells you the work done on the charge.
𝑈=𝑞0𝑉• This is the defining relation between potential
energy (U) and electric potential (V).• Note: since q0 can be positive or negative, U
and V do not necessarily have the same sign.• One more time: Electric potential (V) is not the
same thing as electric potential energy (U)• But let’s rewrite it.
𝑉=𝑈 /𝑞0Similar to: .
𝑉=𝑘𝑒𝑞𝑟
• Electric potential of a point charge q, a distance r away, assuming V=0 at infinity.
• Potential goes up as you get closer to the point charge.
Δ𝑉=±𝐸𝑑• Rather important: This is the potential
difference between two parallel conducting plates, otherwise known as a capacitor.
• What is E for a capacitor again?
𝐶=𝑄𝑉
• Definition of capacitance• C=Charge Q/ Voltage drop
𝐶=𝜖0𝐴𝑑
• Special case of capacitance when you’re looking at a parallel plate capacitor.
• Notice that the capacitance doesn’t depend on the charge on the plates.
𝐶𝑒𝑞=𝐶1+𝐶2+…• Adding capacitors in PARALLEL.

• Adding capacitors in SERIES.
𝐶=4 𝜋𝜖0𝑎𝑏𝑏−𝑎
• Special case of capacitance when you’re looking at a two concentric spherical conducting shells.
• The radius of the smaller shell is a, the radius of the larger shell is b.
𝐶=4 𝜋𝜖0𝑅• The capacitance of a single spherical shell of
radius R
𝑈=12𝐶𝑉 2= 𝑄2
2𝐶=12𝑄𝑉
• You use these equations to calculate the stored energy in a capacitor
• Okay, but there’s 3 different equations, so which one is appropriate for my problem?– If they just ask you to calculate U, use the one that
has variables you know.– If they ask you what happens to U if you double the
charge, halve d, etc…• If the capacitors are stand-alone, use .• If the capacitors are connected to a voltage source, use
𝜖=𝜅𝜖0• This relates the permittivity of free space to
the permittivity in a medium of dielectric constant .
𝐶=𝜅C0• Relates capacitance without a dielectric (C0) to
capacitance with a dielectric.
𝑢=12𝜖𝐸2

• For example, let’s say you have a cube (L=3) filled with water (. The cube has the same E field everywhere (E=5). – Then u=– Total stored energy=

temperature.
𝑅=𝑅0 (1+𝛼 (𝑇 −𝑇 0 ))• Resistance changes as a function of
temperature
