INTRODUCTION
1. International System of Units (51)

Various physical quantities are interrelated by equations which express the relation between them. For example, the acceleration a imparted to a body with the mass m. is related to the force F acting upon this body by the equation F=kma (1) where k is a factor depending on the units in which F, m and a are meesured. If the units of mass and acceleration are known, the unit of force can be so selected that the factor k in equation (1) is equal to unity. and thus F=ma With this aim, the unit of force should be the force which imparts a unit of acceleration to a unit of mass. By treating any newly introduced quantity in the same mariner, its unit of measurement can be found from the formula which determines this quantity; thus a system of derived units can be obtained. Various systems differ from each other by the units taken as the basic ones. This book is based on the International System of Units (SI) adopted by the Eleventh General Conference on Weights and Measures in 1960. The USSR State Standard GOST 9867-61 defines the SI system as the one preferable in all the fields of science. engineering and the national economy, and also in schools and colleges of the USSR. The International System of Units (51) is divided into several independent systems for various fields of measurement, as follows: I. System of mechanical units (GOST 7664-61). 2. System of thermal units (OOST 8550-61). 3. System of electrical and magnetic units (OOST 8033-56). 4. System of acoustic units (OOST 8849-58). 5. System of light units (CJOST 7932-56). 6. System of radioactivity and ionizing radiation units (OOST 8848-63).

INTRODUCTION

The basic SI mechanical units are the metre (rn), kilogramme-mass


(kg) and second (5). Added to these for various fields of measurement are

the-following basic units: the degree Kelvin for thermal measurements, the ampere for electrical measurements and the candela for luminous intensity. The 51 system also includes two supplementary units-for a plane angle and a solid angle. The basic and supplementary 51 units are given in Table 1.

These prefixes in Table 2 may be attached only to simple quantities (metre, gramme, etc.) and never to such as "kilograrnrne", which already contains the prefix "kilo". For the same reason, the unit of mass m= 10' kg= 101 2 g, for example, should be called "teragrarnrne" (Tg).

INTRODUCTION

11

The term "megaton" sometimes applied to this mass is wrong. The unit of length 1= 10- 6 m is generally called a "micron", but the more proper name would be "rnicrornetre" (urn). The derived SI units are formed from the basic ones as described above. The relationship between the derived and basic units can be found from dimension formulas. If the basic quantities are designated by l for length, m for mass, t for time, I for electric current, e for temperature and J for luminous intensity, the dimension formula of a certain quantity x may be written in SI units as follows:

[xl = lam~tllaePJI'"

p, y, 6, p and fl.

To find the dimension of x, we must determine the exponents 'X, These exponents may be positive or negative, integers or fractions. Example 1. Find the dimension of work. Proceeding from the relation W=Fl, we obtain (W]=l2mt- 2 Example 2. Find the dimension of specific heat. Since c= m~9 and [Q)= [Wl, we get [C]=l2t- 2S - 1 If the dimension of a physical quantity is known in the SI system, it is easy to find the dimension of its unit in this system. Thus, the unit of work obviously has the dimension m 2kgs- 2 and the unit of specific heat-m 2s- 2deg- 1 , etc. Tables of derived SI units are given in the respective sections of the book: mechanical units in Chapter 1, thermal units in Chapter 2, electrical and magnetic units in Chapter 3, etc. The same chapters also contain tables which establish the relationship between the 51 and other units, including non-system ones.
2. Methods of Solving Problems

When solving a problem, first of all establish the physical laws which it is based on. Then use the formulas expressing these laws to solve the problem in symbols, and finally substitute the numerical data in one system of units. Besides the International System of Units, other systems and non-system units are widely used in practice and literature. For this reason the numerical data are not always given in SI units. The relationships between the SI units, units of other systems and non-system units are given in tables at the beginning of each chapter. To solve a problem in SI units, all the initial data or data taken from reference tables should be converted into SI units. The answer, naturally, will also be in these units. Sometimes it is not necessary to express all the data in one system. For example, if a quantity is a factor of both the numerator and the

12

INTRODUCTION

denominator, this quantity may obviously be expressed in any units provided they are the same (see Example 2 on p. 17). When a numerical answer is obtained, pay attention to the accuracy of the final result, which should never exceed the accuracy of the initial data. Most of the problems may be solved with slide-rule accuracy. In some cases tables of four-place logarithms should be used. As soon as the numerical data are substituted for the symbols, write the dimension of the answer. If a graph or a diagram is required for solution, select the proper scale and origin of the coordinates, and mark the scale on the graph. The graphs in the answers to some problems are given without a scale, i. e., they show only the qualitative nature of the relationship being sought.

PROBLEMS

Chapter 1
PHYSICAL FUNDAMENTALS OF MECHANICS
MECHANICAL UNITS

The International System of Units incorporates the MKS system intended for measuring mechanical quantities (GOST 7664-61). The basic units in the MKS system are the metre (m), kilograrnrne (kg) and second (s). As indicated above, the derived units of this system are formed from the basic units using the relationship between the relevant physical quantities. For example, the unit of velocity can be determined from the relat ion

v=M
Since the unit of length is the metre and that of time the second, the unit of velocity in the MKS system will be 1 m/s. Obviously the unit of acceleration is 1 mls, Let us establish the unit of force. According to Newton's second law F=ma The unit of mass is 1 kg and the unit of acceleration 1 miss. Therefore, the unit of force in the MRS system should be the force which imparts an acceleration of 1 m/s! to a body with a mass of 1 kg. This unit of force is known as the newton (N): 1 N=l kg-I mIs' Let us now discuss the relation between the weight and mass of a body. The weight G of a body is the force with which this body is attracted by the Earth, Le., the force which imparts an acceleration of g=9.81 mls to the body. Thus, G=mg
I

Al

As any other force in the MKS system, the weight of a body must be measured in newtons. Sometimes it is measured in kilogrammes

J4

PROBLEMS

But it should always be borne in mind that the unit of weight (kilogramme) is not a unit of the MRS system. To prevent confusion, different syrnbols will be used for these two utterly different physical quantities: a kilogramme of mass will be denoted kg, and one of weight (force)-kgf. Let us find the relation between a kilogramme of weight and a newton. A weight of 1 kgf is defined as the weight of a body whose mass is equal to I kg, Le., I kgf=l kg9.BI rn/s" On the other hand N=l kg-I mIs' Therefore
1 kgf=9.81 N

The definition of a kilogramme of weight shows that the numerical value of the weight of a body expressed in kgf is equal to the mass of this body in kg. For example, if the mass of a body is 2 kg, its weight is 2 kgf. The weight of a body in kilogramrnes must be converted into newtons. Example. The mass of a body is 4 kg. Find the weight of the body in kgf and in newtons. Answer: 0=4 kgf (not in the MKS system) and 0=4 X 9.81 N (in the MKS system). The unit of work is determined from the relation W=Fl The unit of work is obviously the work performed by a force of 1 N over a distance of 1 metre. This unit of work is known as the joule (J): IJ=lNlm Power is determined by the formula

p=~
t

Therefore the unit of power in the MK.S system is the power of a mechanism which performs work of 1 J per second. This unit is known as the watt (W). The same method can be used to determine the derived unit of any physical quantity in the MKS system. Table 3 gives the basic and the most important derived units for measuring mechanical quantities in the MKS system according to GDST 7664-61. Table 4 contains the relationships between certain mechanical SI units, and units of other systems and non-system units permitted by GOST 7664-61. -,

Example 1. A stone weighing 1.05 kgf and sliding on ice with a velocity of 2.44 m/s is stopped by friction in 10 seconds. Find the force of friction, assuming it to be constant. Solution. From Newton's second law we have
F~t =

mvl -

mVI

where F is the force of friction under the action of which the velocity of a body with the mass m changes from VI to V2 during the time ~t. In our case V 2 = 0, and
F=_mVt
~t

The minus sign shows that the force of friction F is directed opposite

to the velocity Vi. In the MKS system m


Hence

= 1.05 kg,

VI =

2.44 mls and

~t

10 s.

F = - 1.05~2.44 N = -0.256 N

Since the initial data are accurate to the 3rd decimal place, the answer should be given to the same accuracy with the aid of a slide rule. By using Table 4, we can express the answer obtained in other units IFI = 0.256 N = 2.56x 104 dyn = 0.0261 kgf Example 2. A man and a cart move towards each other. The man weighs 64 kgf and the cart 32 kgf. The velocity of the man is 5.4 km/h and of thecart 1.8 km/h. When the man approaches the cart he jumps onto it. Find the velocity of the cart carrying the man. Solution. According to the law of conservation of momentum p~+ p-,,= m1vl+ m2V2= (m 1+m2) v (1) where m, = mass of the man V 1 = man's velocity before the jump m'},= mass of the cart V 2 = velocity of the cart before the man jumps onto it v = common velocity of the cart and man after the jump. From formula (1)

(2)
Since formula (2) is homogeneous, the masses m, and m, may be written in any units provided they are the same. Formula (2) also shows that since the units of the masses will be cancelled out, the unit of the velocity v will be the same as that of the velocities VI and VI. For this reason it is not necessary to convert all the data to MI(S units.

PROBLEMS

The initial velocities of the cart and man were opposite in direction, and therefore their signs were different. Taking the velocity of the man to be positive, we have VI = 5.4 km/h and v 2 = -1.8 km/h. Besides, ml= 64 kg and m 2= 32 kg. By inserting these data into formula (2), we obtain

v-

- 64XS.4-32X 1.8 k /h = 3 0 k /h 64+32 fil m

The velocity v > o. Thus, after the man jumps onto it, the cart will begin to move in the direction in which the man was walking. Example 3. Water is pumped out of a well 20 metres deep by means of a pump with a motor rated at 5 hp. Find the efficiency of the motor if 3.8 X 105 litres of water are pumped out during 7 hours of operation. Solution. The power of the motor P is related to the work W which the motor performs during the time t by the expression
P=Tri

(1)

where 11 is the efficiency of the pump. The work required to raise a mass m of water to a height h is W = rngh (2)

The mass m of the water occupies the volume

whence
m = Vp

where p is the density of water. Substitution of Vp for m in for mula (2) and the resulting expression for W in formula (1) gives

Let us use Table 4 to convert the data of the example to the MKS system. It is expedient to calculate the arithmetic values in the final formula.

Ideal gases conform to the Mendeleyev-Clapeyron equation of state

where p = pressure of a gas V = volume of the gas T = absolute temperature M = mass of the gas J1 = mass of one kilomole of the gas R = gas constant. The ratio M shows the number of kilomoles. f1 In 51 units the gas constant is numerically equal to R=8.31 x x 103 J /kmole deg. According to Dalton's lawt the pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of their partial pressures. By the partial pressure is meant the pressure which a gas of the mixture would have if it alone filled the entire volume at the given temperature. The basic equation of the kinetic theory of gases has the form

where n mean kinetic energy of the translational motion of one molecule m = mass of a molecule ~= mean square velocity of the molecules. These quantities are determined by the following formulas. The number of molecules in a unit of volume n= kT

ELECTRICAL AND MAGNETIC UNITS

The International System of Units (51) incorporates the MI(SA system used to measure electrical and magnetic quantities (USSR State Standard G05T 8033-56). The basic units in this system are the metre (m), kilogramme (kg)t second (s) and ampere (A). The derived units of the MI(SA system are formed on the basis of the laws which establish the relationship between the relevant physical quantities. For example, the unit of the quantity of electricity-the coulomb (C)-is determined from the equation Q=/t as the quantity of electricity which flows through the cross section of a conductor in one second when the current intensity isone ampere, i.e., 1 C=l Ax 1 s. The unit of potential difference-volt (V)-can be found from the equation P= U X I, where P isthe power of the current. Hence 1 V=~: . By proceeding in this way, we can find the units for the other derived quantities in the MKSA system (see
Table 11).

The MKSA units are used to rationalize the formulas. Many equations relating to the theory of electric and magnetic phenomena contain the numerical factor 4 n (for example, the Gauss theorem, the capacitance of a plane capacitor, the magnetic field intensity inside a solenoid, etc.). The equations are rationalized to dispense with this factor in the formulas most frequently used in electrical and radio engineering. The factor 4 11:, however, will enter other formulas used less frequently, and in which its presence can be explained by geometrical considerations. The USSR standard specifies the electrical and magnetic units of the SI system for the rationalized form of equations of the electromagnetic field. Accordingly, all the equations in the introductions to the sections of Chapter 3 are given in the rationalized form. Besides the MKSA system, GOST 8033-56 permits the CGS (Gaussian) system to be used for electrical and magnetic measurements. For this reason the numerical data in the problems will not always be given in the MKSA system. Butt bearing in mind the advantages of a unified system, we shall, as before, solve the problems only in the

MKSA system. For this purpose the numerical data in the problems should be converted into MKSA units. Table 12 shows the relationships between certain units of the CGS and MKSA systems according to GOST 8033-56. Since in the CGS system most of the units have no names we shall denote the unit of a physical quantity by the symbol of this system with the corresponding subscript. Thus. the unit of current intensity will be designated CGS/ and the unit of capacitance by CaSe, etc. The relations in Table 12are between CGS units for non-rationalized equations and MKSA units for rationalized equations of the electromagnetic field. For the relationship between these equations see the Appendix. Let us introduce the relative permittivity (dielectric constant) of a medium e,.= .!. , where 8 is the absolute permittivity, whose numerical eo value depends both on the properties of the medium and the choice of the system of units, and 80 is the permittivity of a vacuum. The numerical value of 80 depends only on thechoice of the system of units. Hence 8 in all equations may be replaced by the numerically equal quan.. tity soer' where 80 is the permittivity ofa vacuum and e, is the relative permittivity (dielectric constant) of the medium with respect to a vacuum, i.e., the usual tabulated value of the permittivity.

Circuits composed of a network of conductors obey one of Kirchhoff's two laws. Kirchhoff's first law states that: "The algebraic sum of the currents at any junction of conductors (branch point) must be zero", i.e.,
~/=O

Kirchhoff's second law states that: "In any closed circuit the algebraic sum of the potential drops in various sections of the circuit is equal to the algebraic sum of the electromotive forces in this circuit", i.e.,
~IR=IG

The following. rules should be observed in using Kirchhoff's laws. The directions of the currents are indicated arbitrarily by arrows on the diagram near the respective resistors. Moving along the circuit in any direction, let us assume that the currents- whose direction coincides with the direction of this movement are positive, and that the oppositely directed currents are negative. The e.m.f.s will be positive if they increase the potential in the direction of the movement, i.e., when passing from the minus to the plus of a generator. After the equations have been solved, the sought quantities may be negative. If currents are being determined, a negative value indicates only that the actual direction of the current in the given section of the circuit is opposite to that 51 own by the arrow. If resistances are being determined, a negative value indicates a wrong result (since ohmic resistance is always positive). In this case the direction of the current in the given resistor should be reversed and the problem solved for these conditions. Faraday established two laws for an electric current. According to the first law, the mass m of a substance liberated during electrolysis is equal to

m=Klt=KQ

x= 10 sin (0.5nt- 6 :~(4) em

Thus, x=/ (I, I), i. e., the displacement of the points lying on the. ray depends on the time t and the distance I from the point to the source of oscillations. (2) For a point at a distance of 600 m from the source of oscillations, equation (1) can be written as x= 10 sin (0.5 nt-n) em, i. e., at 1=const we obtain x = 11 (t), hence, the displacement of a fixed point lying on the ray changes with time.

Thus, the series in the visible region of the spectrum corresponds to k = 2 and n = 3, 4, 5, ... . The wavelength of the spectral lines of this series will obviously be minimum when n =

maximum wavelength corresponds to n=3; i. e., A. 2 = 6.56 X 10- 7 m. Thus. the visible hydrogen spectrum lies within the wavelength range from At = 3,650 A to 20.6.

21. Radioactivity
21.1 and 21.2. The number of atoms of a radioactive substance which disintegrate during the time dt is determined by the formula
dN = -AN dt
(1)

Obviously, this formula can be used for the final time interval A.t only when the number of available atoms N is constant during the time A.t, i. e., when At is mueh smaller than the hall-life T. It can easily be seen (seethe tables in the Appendix) that when solving Problem 21.1 the number of polonium atoms which disintegrate during twenty-four hours can be found from the formula

The number of radon atoms which disintegrate during twenty-four hours can be found from the formula N = N le- At The sought number will thus be !!.N = Nt--N == N1-Nte-)..'= Nt (l-e-~f) Upon inserting the numerical data of Problem 21.2, we find !!.N = toe (1-0.833)= 167,000 days-l If we try to find AN from approximate formula (2), we get AN = 192,000 days-I, l. e., an error of about 10% will be made.
