  • Topic 0991 Electrochemical Units Electric Current the SI Base
    Topic 0991 Electrochemical Units Electric Current The SI base electrical unit is the AMPERE which is that constant electric current which if maintained in two straight parallel conductors of infinite length and of negligible circular cross section and placed a metre apart in a vacuum would produce between these conductors a force equal to 2 x 10-7 newton per metre length. It is interesting to note that definition of the Ampere involves a derived SI unit, the newton. Except in certain specialised applications, electric currents of the order ‘amperes’ are rare. Starter motors in cars require for a short time a current of several amperes. When a current of one ampere passes through a wire about 6.2 x 1018 electrons pass a given point in one second [1,2]. The coulomb (symbol C) is the electric charge which passes through an electrical conductor when an electric current of one A flows for one second. Thus [C] = [A s] (a) Electric Potential In order to pass an electric current thorough an electrical conductor a difference in electric potential must exist across the electrical conductor. If the energy expended by a flow of one ampere for one second equals one Joule the electric potential difference across the electrical conductor is one volt [3]. Electrical Resistance and Conductance If the electric potential difference across an electrical conductor is one volt when the electrical current is one ampere, the electrical resistance is one ohm, symbol Ω [4]. The inverse of electrical resistance , the conductance, is measured using the unit siemens, symbol [S].

  • The Decibel Scale R.C
    The Decibel Scale R.C. Maher Fall 2014 It is often convenient to compare two quantities in an audio system using a proportionality ratio. For example, if a linear amplifier produces 2 volts (V) output amplitude when its input amplitude is 100 millivolts (mV), the voltage gain is expressed as the ratio of output/input: 2V/100mV = 20. As long as the two quantities being compared have the same units--volts in this case--the proportionality ratio is dimensionless. If the proportionality ratios of interest end up being very large or very small, such as 2x105 and 2.5x10-4, manipulating and interpreting the results can become rather unwieldy. In this situation it can be helpful to compress the numerical range by taking the logarithm of the ratio. It is customary to use a base-10 logarithm for this purpose. For example, 5 log10(2x10 ) = 5 + log10(2) = 5.301 and -4 log10(2.5x10 ) = -4 + log10(2.5) = -3.602 If the quantities in the proportionality ratio both have the units of power (e.g., 2 watts), or intensity (watts/m ), then the base-10 logarithm log10(power1/power0) is expressed with the unit bel (symbol: B), in honor of Alexander Graham Bell (1847 -1922). The decibel is a unit representing one tenth (deci-) of a bel. Therefore, a figure reported in decibels is ten times the value reported in bels. The expression for a proportionality ratio expressed in decibel units (symbol dB) is: 10 푝표푤푒푟1 10 Common Usage 푑퐵 ≡ ∙ 푙표푔 �푝표푤푒푟0� The power dissipated in a resistance R ohms can be expressed as V2/R, where V is the voltage across the resistor.

  • The ST System of Units Leading the Way to Unification
    The ST system of units Leading the way to unification © Xavier Borg B.Eng.(Hons.) - Blaze Labs Research First electronic edition published as part of the Unified Theory Foundations (Feb 2005) [1] Abstract This paper shows that all measurable quantities in physics can be represented as nothing more than a number of spatial dimensions differentiated by a number of temporal dimensions and vice versa. To convert between the numerical values given by the space-time system of units and the conventional SI system, one simply multiplies the results by specific dimensionless constants. Once the ST system of units presented here is applied to any set of physics parameters, one is then able to derive all laws and equations without reference to the original theory which presented said relationship. In other words, all known principles and numerical constants which took hundreds of years to be discovered, like Ohm's Law, energy mass equivalence, Newton's Laws, etc.. would simply follow naturally from the spatial and temporal dimensions themselves, and can be derived without any reference to standard theoretical background. Hundreds of new equations can be derived using the ST table included in this paper. The relation between any combination of physical parameters, can be derived at any instant. Included is a step by step worked example showing how to derive any free space constant and quantum constant. 1 Dimensions and dimensional analysis One of the most powerful mathematical tools in science is dimensional analysis. Dimensional analysis is often applied in different scientific fields to simplify a problem by reducing the number of variables to the smallest number of "essential" parameters.

  • Supplementary Notes on Natural Units Units
    Physics 8.06 Feb. 1, 2005 SUPPLEMENTARY NOTES ON NATURAL UNITS These notes were prepared by Prof. Jaffe for the 1997 version of Quantum Physics III. They provide background and examples for the material which will be covered in the first lecture of the 2005 version of 8.06. The primary motivation for the first lecture of 8.06 is that physicists think in natural units, and it’s about time that you start doing so too. Next week, we shall begin studying the physics of charged particles mov- ing in a uniform magnetic field. We shall be lead to consider Landau levels, the integer quantum hall effect, and the Aharonov-Bohm effect. These are all intrinsically and profoundly quantum mechanical properties of elemen- tary systems, and can each be seen as the starting points for vast areas of modern theoretical and experimental physics. A second motivation for to- day’s lecture on units is that if you were a physicist working before any of these phenomena had been discovered, you could perhaps have predicted im- portant aspects of each of them just by thinking sufficiently cleverly about natural units. Before getting to that, we’ll learn about the Chandrasekhar mass, namely the limiting mass of a white dwarf or neutron star, supported against collapse by what one might loosely call “Pauli pressure”. There too, natural units play a role, although it is too much to say that you could have predicted the Chandrasekhar mass only from dimensional analysis. What is correct is the statement that if you understood the physics well enough to realize 2 that Mchandrasekhar ∝ 1/mproton, then thinking about natural units would have been enough to get you to Chandrasekhar’s result.

A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 1990 To my grandparents, Carrie B. and W. D. Owens ACKNOWLEDGMENTS It would be impossible to adequately acknowledge all of those who have contributed in one way or another to my “graduate school experience.” However, there are a few who have played such a pivotal role that I feel it appropriate to take this opportunity to thank them: • Dr. Michael Zemer for his enthusiasm despite my more than occasional lack thereof. • Dr. Yngve Ohm whose strong leadership and standards of excellence make QTP a truly unique environment for students, postdocs, and faculty alike. • Dr. Jack Sabin for coming to the rescue and providing me a workplace in which to finish this dissertation. I will miss your bookshelves which I hope are back in order before you read this. • Dr. William Weltner who provided encouragement and seemed to have confidence in me, even when I did not. • Joanne Bratcher for taking care of her boys and keeping things running smoothly at QTP-not to mention Sanibel. Of course, I cannot overlook those friends and colleagues with whom I shared much over the past years: • Alan Salter, the conservative conscience of the clubhouse and a good friend. • Bill Parkinson, the liberal conscience of the clubhouse who, along with his family, Bonnie, Ryan, Danny, and Casey; helped me keep things in perspective and could always be counted on for a good laugh.
