Physics and measurements (2 hrs)
Physics is an empirical science, which means that measurements are made. To communicate
the measurements, system of units is used. Comparison between the measurements can be
made if a common unit of measure is used, or at least a known conversion is know,
Units
A common system of units used in physics is the SI (Systeme International d’Unites), which
is a revised metric system. This system uses meter for length, kilogram for mass and secaon
for time.
Fundamental Quantities
Fundamental quantities are the basic quantity of measure. The fundamental quantites of the
SI units, its corresponding symbol, the unit of measure and symbol for unit of measure is
given in the table below.

Derived Quantities
Derived quantities are quantities which can be described using the fundamental quantities.
Some examples are given below.
Derived quantities

Force
Energy
Units
kilogram – meter per second
Newton, kilogram – meter
per second per second
Joule, Newton.meter
Symbol of unit
kg m s-1
N, kg m s-2
J, kg m2 s-2
Derived quantities are obtained when physical quantities are multiplied or divided with one
another. Subtration or addition will not produce derived quantities.
E.g.
1.23 m + 3.21 m = 3.33 m – same quantity
1.23 m x 3.21 m = 3.95 m2 – area, a derived quantity

Significant figure
When measurements are made, the accuracy of the measuring instruments determine the
number of significant figures (digits) that can be taken for the measurement. This is the
number of significant figures due to the precision of measuring instrument.
Example
Meter rule – smallest division is 1 mm, Therefore readings can be made to the nearest mm,
e.g. 0.563 m – gives 3 significant figures.
Vernier Caliper – readings can be made to the nearest 1/10 of 1 mm, eg 5.42 cm –3 sig. fig
Micrometer screw gauge – readings can be made to 1/100 of 1 mm, eg. 14.56 mm – 4 sig fig
When quantities undergo mathematical operation, the number of significant figure will
usually decreases. The result of a mathematical operation will usually have the smaller
number of significant figure from the significant figures of the quantities that undergo the
mathematical operation.
Mathematical operation does not increase the precision of the result.
Ex.
0.563 m x 14.56 mm = 8.1536 x 10-3 m2 = 8.15 x 10-3 m2 to 3 significant figures.
0.563 m + 14.56 mm = 0.57756 m = 0.576 m to the decimal place of the coarser instrument
(meter rule)
Conversion of units
Conversion of units is done by treating the prefix value factor and units as ordinary variables
Conversion due to prefix
123.4 m into cm
100 cm = 1 m
123.4 m x 100 cm / m = 1234 cm
5
Lecture Notes PHY143

Or 1cm = 1 x 10-2 m
123.4 x 1 cm / 1 x 10-2 m = 1234 cm
Conversion due to unit’s system
5 feet 5 inch into m
1 feet = 12 inch
1 inch = 2.54 cm
5 feet 5 inch = 65 inch x 2.54 cm / 1 inch = 165 cm x 1 m / 100 cm = 1.65 m

Scalar s and vectors (3 hrs)
Definition
Scalars are physical quantities which have magnitude only. Vectors are physical quantities
which have magnitude and direction.
Example of scalars: distance travelled, time, energy
Example of vectors: force, momentum, velocity, acceleration
Vector Notation
A vector is represented graphically by an arrow.
The size (length) of the arrow represents the magnitude of the vector, the direction of the
arrow is the direction of the vector.
r
In written form a vector symbol is written in bold typeface, A , or with an arrow A
over
the symbol. The direction has to be stated explicitely
Addition (& subtraction) of vector components - Geometrical Method
When two vectors are added together, the tail of the second vector is connected to the
tip/head of the first vector.
The result of the addition is called the resultant vector.
Note : A + B = B + A
Vector subtraction is the addition of a vector with a negative vector.
A negative vector is a vector having the same magnitude as the original vector but opposite in
direction.
Example
A - B = A + -B
Notice: –B is in opposite direction of B
7
Lecture Notes PHY143
UiTM Pulau Pinang
Note : A + - B = - (B + -A)
Addition (& subtraction) of vector components - Unit vector method
A vector A can be written in the form, A = Ax iˆ + Ay ĵ , where iˆ and ĵ are unit vectors (
magnitude 1, but no associated unit) and point in the +x and +y direction respectively, and Ax
and Ay are the x and y components of the vectors respectively.
A + B = (Ax iˆ + Ay ĵ ) +( Bx iˆ + By ĵ )
= (Ax + Bx) iˆ + (Ay + By) ĵ
Resolution of vectors into x and y components.
We use trigonometry to assist us in working with vectors in number.
A vector can be resolve into components along/parallel to a selected set of axis.
Using x-y axes as reference axes. The vector is resolved into components along the x and the
y axis.
Ax = A cos θ1 i
Ay = A sin θ1 j
Notice θ is the angle between the vector and the positive x – axis
Bx = B cos θ2 i
By = B sin θ2 j
Thus A + B = (Ax + Bx) iˆ + (Ay + By) ĵ
= (A cos θ1 + B cos θ2) iˆ + (A sin θ1 + B sin θ2) ĵ

Kinematics (3 hrs)
Position, displacement and velocity
Position – the location of a point / particle / object, i.e. the labels or coordinate with respect to
a system of axes (i.e. x-y-z axes)
Position Vector is the vector from the origin to the position / coordinate point.
Distance traveled is the length of the path of the object
Displacement - The length vector along a straight line between two positions.
Normally the reference point is the origin (0, 0) in the x-y plane (2-dim), or x = 0 on the xaxis.
The position vector is represented by r = x iˆ + y ĵ (2-dim) or r = x iˆ ( 1-dim)
Speed - The rate of change of distance traveled. Speed is a scalar quantity.
Average Speed = distance traveled divided by time to cover the distance
Instantaneous speed is defined as the speed at a particular instance in time.
Example: A student walks a distance of 100 meters in 20 seconds. Find the average speed of
the student. Average speed = 100 meters/20 seconds = 5 meter/second = 5 m/s= 5 ms-1
Velocity - The rate of change of displacement. Velocity is a vector.
Average velocity = the displacement divided by time to cover the distance

between 5 -10 sec, 10 -15 sec, 15 – 20 sec respectively.
The average velocity between 0-10 secs is however is not the slope of the graph, and has to
be computed.

Graph of velocity versus time

Lecture Notes PHY143
UiTM Pulau Pinang
The velocity versus time graph gives us the the velocity at some instances in time. In the
above example the particle has a constant velocity of 4 m s-1 between 0 – 10 sec. Its velocity
decreases to 2 m s-1 in the next 5 sec (5 – 10 sec interval), then increases until it reaches a
velocity of 6 m s-1 at t = 20 s.
The particle has zero acceleration in the time interval 0 – 5 sec, undergoes deceleration
(acceleration is negative) between 5 – 10 sec, and acceleration during the time interval 10 -20
sec.
Constant acceleration in linear motion
A particle or body moving in a straight line, for example along the x- axis is said to be
moving in linear motion. The path of the particle can be represented by a straight line. To
simplify analysis, we will only consider the particle to be moving at constant acceleration
over a certain time. However, the acceleration of the particle can be of a different value over
another time range. A graph of velocity versus time will show straight line segments, similar
to the velocity versus time graph above. The kinematics equations can be use over the time
when the acceleration is constant.
Example:
A particle moves in a straight line during its motion. It moves from rest (velocity = 0), with
an acceleration of 0.5 m s-2 for 10 seconds. Its acceleration then becomes zero for the next
five seconds. It then decelerates and stops moving in another 15 seconds. Find
a) The velocity of the particle at 12 seconds.
b) The distance it moves during its motion.
c) The deceleration of the particle.
Motion in two dimension
Particles or bodies which move in a plane, for example on the x-y plane is said to undergo
motion in two- dimension. The velocity of the particles / bodies can be resolved along two
perpendicular directions (x-y axes).
Example:
13
Lecture Notes PHY143
UiTM Pulau Pinang
An airplane is moving with a velocity of 300 km hr-1 in the direction 030o. It flew for 45
minutes before it changes direction to 110o. It then flew for another 30 minutes with a speed
of 350 km hr-1. What is the distance it traveled?
Particles and bodies in projectile motion also move in two dimensions – the horizontal and
the vertical direction.
Example:
An arrow is shot at angle of 450 with respect to the ground. The arrow leaves the bow at 50
ms-1. What is the horizontal distance it traveled when it return to its initial height from the
ground? (Assume there is no air resistance and the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 ms-2)
Free Fall motion
When an object is release from a height above ground, it will fall to the ground with
acceleration due to gravity, g which is 9.8 ms-2. The acceleration due to gravity is always
pointing towards the ground. If an object is thrown vertically upwards with a certain speed, it
will also fall to the ground with the acceleration due to gravity.
Example:
1.
An object is released from rest from a height of 10 m above the ground. Calculate its
velocity as it hits the ground.
2.
A ball is thrown upwards at a speed of 30 ms-1. How high does the ball travel, before
it returns to the ground? Calculate the total time it takes during flight.

Newton’s Laws of Motion, Linear momentum and collisions (5hrs)
Definition
Newton’s First Law states that an object at rest will remain at rest and an object in motion
will remain in motion unless act upon by a force.
An object’s velocity does not change if and only if the net force acting on the object is zero.
Newton’s First Law is also called the law of inertia. Inertia is the resistance to changes in
velocity. Inertia is a property of matter. Inertia is proportional to the mass of the object. An
object with a larger mass has a larger inertia than a less massive object.
Newton’s Third Law states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
Forces acts in pairs. Every force is part of the interaction between two objects, and each of
the objects exerts a force on the other.
Example: When we sit on a chair, we exert a force on the chair. Conversely, the chair exerts
an equal but opposite force on us.
The Force Law (Newton’s Second Law)
Newton’s Second Law states that the acceleration of an object is proportional to the net force
on the object and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.
In mathematical representation
Fnet = ΣF = ma, Σ F is the sum all forces acting on the body of mass m, and a the acceleration.
Example:
A constant force of 10 N is applied to a body of mass 2 N which is initially at rest. What is
the acceleration on the body? Calculate its velocity after 5 seconds.
Types of forces (Gravitational, Normal & Friction)
A force is a push or pull. Forces can be categorized in several forms, by how it acts on
another object and by the source of the force.
Contact forces are forces acting on objects because the objects are in touch with one another.
For example the force from a chair holding up a sitting person is a contact force.
Long range forces are forces which do not require the objects to be in touch. For example the
force the sun exerts on the earth to keep it rotating around the sun. The force between two
magnets is also an example of a long range force.
The Gravitational force is an example of long range force.
GMm
, where G is the universal gravitational
The gravitational force is given as F =
r2
constant, G = 6.674 x 10-11 Nm2 kg-2, M and m are the masses of the objects in interaction,
and r the distance between the two objects.
Near the surface of the earth the gravitational force is given as F = mg, where g = 9.81 N kg-1
or ms-2 is the acceleration due to gravity.
15

The normal force is the reaction force exerted by a surface in the direction perpendicular
(normal) to the surface. The force the seat of a chair exerts on a person sitting on it is a n
example of normal force.
Friction or frictional force is a force which acts between two sliding surfaces and opposes the
direction of motion of the sliding surfaces. Friction exists because surfaces are not
microscopically smooth. The irregularities between the surfaces produce friction. Friction can
be reduced between sliding surfaces by polishing the two surfaces smooth, applying lubricant
between the surfaces or inserting balls or rollers (bearing).
The magnitude of the frictional force is propotional to the normal force, f = uN . The
direction is always opposite the direction of motion. µ is the coeficient of friction
(static/dynamic)
Free body diagram
A free body diagram is a diagram of an object which shows all forces acting on the object. In
a many body problem, free body diagrams are drawn for each body in the problems. All the
forces acting on that particular object are drawn on the object. A free body diagram helps in
analyzing a kinematics problem.
Linear momentum and Collisions
Definition of momentum
The linear momentum p of an object is the product of the object’s mass, m and velocity, v
p = mv
Unit : kg ms-1, a vector
The Principle of Conservation of momentum
16
Lecture Notes PHY143
UiTM Pulau Pinang
The total linear momentum of an isolated system remains constant (is conserved). An isolated
system is one for which the vector sum of the external forces acting on the system is zero.
A simple system contains two object which can interact with each other. The masses of the
objects remain unchanged, but their velocities might change during the interaction.
By The Principle of Conservation of Momentum, the total momentum, (ie the sum of the
momentum of the two objects) before the interaction is equal to the total momentum, (ie the
sum of the momentum of the two objects) after the interaction.
Sum of momentum before interaction = sum of momentum after interaction.

Collecting the components
m1 (u1xiˆ) + m2 (u 2 x iˆ) = m1 (v1x iˆ) + m2 (v2 x iˆ)
m1u1x + m2u 2 x = m1v1x + m2v2 x
m1 (u1 y ˆj ) + m2 (u 2 y ˆj ) = m1 (v1 y ˆj ) + m2 (v2 y ˆj )
m1u1 y + m2u 2 y = m1v1 y + m2 v2 y
Collision between two bodies
One moving, one stationary initially
Both moving with different velocity in the same direction initially.
Both objects moving towards each other initially.
Both objects move with different velocities after collision.
One object stationary, one moving after collision.
Both objects moves together with the same velocity after collision
Work, energy and power (3 hrs)
Work, energy & power
Work is the product of the displacement due to the force with the component of the force
along the direction of the displacement.
W = (F cos θ) s, where F is the force, s is the displacement and θ is the angle between the
force and displacement.

Gravitational potential energy
The energy of an object due to its position relative to the surface of the earth.
The gravitational potential energy of an object of mass, m and height h, relative to an
arbitraryly set zero is PE = mgh
Unit of Energy
The unit of energy is joule (J).
1 joule = 1 N m
1 joule = 1 kg m2s-2
Power is the rate of doing work
Power is the rate of energy used
Power is the rate of energy supplied
P = Power
W = work, E = Energy used/supplied
t = time taken for work done
Conservation of mechanical Energy
Mechanical energy describes the potential energy and kinetic energy present in the
components of a mechanical system.
The mechanical energy of the system is conserved. The energy changes form from kinetic
energy to potential energy and vice versa.
Note: Energy is always conserved, but in a mechanical system the energy is assumed not to
change into chemical, nuclear or electrical.
Work-Energy theorem
When a net external force does work, W on an object, the kinetic energy of the object
changes from its initial value KEo to a final value KEf, the difference between the two being
the work.
W = KEf – KEo= 1/2 mvf2 –1/2 mv02

energy, or kinetic and spring potential energy.

Rotational motion (3 hrs)
Motion of a body rotating/ spinning about an axis.
When a body is rotating/spinning about an axis then each points on the body are moving in
circular paths centered at the axis of rotation
If a line is drawn from each points to the axis of rotation, the radial lines will have all have
the same angular speed about the axis of rotation.
The radial lines moves at the same angular speed.
The motion of the radial lines are common to the body.
Thus the rotating body can be described using the motion of a radial line on the body.
Angular position, angular displacement and angular velocity
Angular position is defined by r ∠θ, where r is the distance from the axis of rotation and
θ the angle the radial line makes with the positive x- axis

The pendulum and mass – spring system are oscillation system where the plum bob or mass
oscillates about an equilibrium point.
In both cases the oscillation follow the simple harmonic motion. Thus the two system are
referred to as simple harmonic oscillators.
Periodic motion
A motion is periodic, if it repeats itself at standard intervals in a specific manner.
Simple harmonic motion (SHM)
Definition of Simple Harmonic Motion
An object is said to be moving in a simple harmonic motion if its motion is
restricted to a path, passing through an equilibrium point, with its acceleration
proportional to the displacement from the equilibrium point and always pointing
towards the equilibrium point.
Using Newton’s 2nd Law, the previous definition of S.H.M. imply that the force
acting on the moving mass is proportional to the displacement form the
equilibrium point and is pointing towards the equilibrium point.

Conservation of Energy in SHM
Free vibration : The SHM system is left to oscillate on its own. The oscillating mass
changes kinetic energy into potential energy and vice versa during its motion. If no
energy is lost due to friction or air resistance, then the amplitude of the oscillation
remains a constant.
Total energy remains a constant.
Total energy = ½ mv2 + ½ kx2 (spring in SHM)
E = ½ m(- ω A cos (ωt + φ))2 + ½ k(A sin (ωt + φ))2
E = ½ m (k/m) A2 cos2 (ωt + φ) + ½ k A2 sin2 (ωt + φ)
E = ½ k A2
In free vibration, the system vibrates /oscillates with the natural frequency of the system.
The frequency of SHM / SH oscillators are the natural frequency. Energy is conserved in
free vibration.
In forced vibration, the system is forced to oscillates / vibrates at a frequency which is not
the natural frequency of the system – i.e.. A source is needed in forced vibration, whereas
in free oscillation a source of vibration is not needed. Energy is not conserved in forced
vibration.

Elasticity
An object is elastic if it returns to its original dimension when the stress acting upon it is
removed.
The ratio of stress to strain is linear to a certain limit, called the proportionality limit.
Beyond the proportionality limit, the relation is non linear.
The object will return to its original dimension until the elastic limit is reached.
Beyond the elastic limit the object will not return to its original dimension.
Its behavior is said to be plastic – large deformation for a small increase in applied force.
The ratio of tensile stress to strain is the elastic modules.
The linear proportionality of stress and strain is called Hooke’s Law.

Mechanics of fluids (2 hrs)
Density and relative density
Density and specific weight
The density of a fluid is defined as its mass divided by its volume.
ρ=m/V
The SI unit of density is kg/m3.
The density of water is 1000 kg/m3 (1 g/cm3).
The specific weight of a fluid is its density divided by the density of water. The
specific weight has no unit.
Pressure
Static pressure
The static pressure is the pressure in a non moving fluids.
By definition Pressure = Force / Area
P = F /A,
The SI unit of pressure is N/m2 or Pascal (Pa)
Therefore the pressure due to a static fluid is the force exerted by the fluid divided
by the area on which the force acts.
Suppose a column of fluid has a cross sectional area A and height h. Its volume is
then given as V = A x h.
The mass of the fluid, m is given as the product of its density, ρ and its volume ,
V.
Its weight then is W = F = mg = ρVg
The pressure on top of the fluid column is P1.
The pressure exerted by the column is Pl = F/A = ρVg /A = ρAhg /A = ρhg
Then the pressure at the bottom of the fluid column is P2 = P1 + ρhg
27
Lecture Notes PHY143
UiTM Pulau Pinang
The pressure inside a fluid is
P = P0 + ρhg, where P0 is the atmospheric pressure, ρ the fluid’s density, g acceleration
due to gravity and h the depth inside a fluid.
Fluid static – Pascal’s Law
Pascal’s Law states that the pressure applied to an enclosed fluid is transmitted
undiminished to every portion of the fluids and the walls of the containing vessel.
This is the principle used in a hydraulic lift.
The pressure on both piston are the same.
The pressure on the smaller piston is P = F1/A1.
The pressure on the larger piston is P = F2/A2.
Thus P = F1/A1 = F2/A2
or F1/F2 = A1/A2 or F2 = F1 A2 /A1
Thus a smaller force can be amplified
Buoyancy.
When a body is completely or partially immersed in a fluid, the fluid exerts an upward force
on the body equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the body.
28
Lecture Notes PHY143
UiTM Pulau Pinang
The upward force acting on the body is
F2 – F1 =A(P atm +ρgh2 – (P atm +ρgh1))
= A(ρgh2 –ρgh1) = Aρg (h2 - h1)
= ρg A (h2 - h1)
= ρg V, where V = A (h2 - h1) is the volume of the fluid displaced by body
This is the buoyant force acting on the body.
For a body which floats it weight W = mg =buoyant force. (Static equilibrium)
For a body which sinks W > buoyant force.

Vibrations and waves (2 hrs)
Introduction
Waves are transmission of disturbances through a medium, outwards from a source
producing the disturbances.
Waves are produced by vibration of a source.
Type of waves
Transverse wave
In a transverse wave, the disturbances causes the particle of the medium to oscillates in a
direction perpendicular to the direction of travel of the wave.
Source
Longitudinal waves
In a longitudinal wave, the disturbances causes the particles of the medium to oscillates along
the direction of travel of the wave.
(In both the above examples the disturbances are produced at the source and changes
sinusoidal, producing the characteristic sine wave form.)
Characteristic of wave motion
Wave parameters
The classic wave (transverse and longitudinal) is produced by a source which oscillates in
simple harmonic motion. In a transverse wave the oscillation of the source is perpendicular to
the direction of transmission, in a longitudinal wave the oscillation is parallel to the direction
of transmission.

wavelength = the size of one waveform in the direction of propagation = the distance a wave

A complete oscillation (or one wave form) is made in time T, the angular displacement of the
ω
SHM in this time is 2π. Therefore angular displacement θ = 2π = ωT =
f
Thus ω = 2πf
Thus the oscillation can be written as y (t) = A sin (2πf t + δ)
Now if the source is at x = 0, and the equation of the SHM is y (t) = A sin (2πf t ), then the
oscillations of the particles along the positive x axis all lags behind the source. Ie, y (x, t) = A
sin (2πf t - δ(x))

The propagation of Waves
The propagation of wave is the movement of the waveform from the source outwards. For
mechanical wave, the propagation will follows the type of medium. i.e. in a string the wave
will travel along the string, water waves may spread radially if it is from a point source.
Spherical waves or planar waves can be produced depending on the source.
The speed at which the waveform travels is called the wave velocity or wave speed. As a
complete wave length moves a distanceλ in a time T, thus the speed at which it moves is v =
λ/T = f.λ
Wave equations
Harmonic wave equation
The equation for a wave moving to the right is y (x, t) = A sin (2πf t - kx), while for a wave moving to the left is
y (x, t) = A sin (2πf t + kx), relative to the source of the oscillation (the origin) which has the equation y (t) = A

Temperature, Thermal expansion and the Ideal Gas Law (4 hrs)

• 0oC - Freezing Point of water
• 100oC – Boiling point of water
– Kelvin Scale (Absolute temperature scale)(SI unit)
• 0K – absolute zero, lowest temperature, all molecules stops vibrating
equals -273oC ,
• 273K equals 0oC,
• 373K equals 100oC
• Change of 1K = change of 1oC
• θ(K) = (θ(oC) +273) (K)
– Fahrenheit Scale
• 32oF equals 0oC
• 212oF equals 100oC
• θ(oF) = (9/5)θ(oC) +32) (oF)

Types of thermometers
– Mercury in glass
• Uses the expansion/contraction of mercury due to absorption/loss of
heat. The level of mercury rises/fall against a calibrated scale.
• Ex : Room thermometer, Clinical thermometer
– Resistance thermometer
• Uses the change in the resistance of a wire as a measure of
temperature change

• EMF generated between the two wire junctions kept at different
temperature is measured. The e.m.f. is proportional to the difference in
the junctions temperature.
– Constant Volume gas
• The temperature is proportional to the change in pressure of the gas.
Calibration of a temperature scale
A measurable physical change with temperature is obtained. The change should be linear in
nature.
Two known “ends” is required.. Usually the melting point of ice and the boiling point of

The ideal gas law
The ideal gas law is the equation of state of a hypothetical ideal gas, first stated by Benoît
Paul Émile Clapeyron in 1834.
The state of an amount of gas is determined by its pressure, volume, and temperature
according to the equation:
where
is the absolute pressure [Pa],
is the volume [m3] of the vessel containing moles of gas,
is the amount of substance of gas [mol],
is the gas constant [8.314472 m3·Pa·K−1·mol−1],
is the temperature in Kelvin [K].
The ideal gas constant (R) depends on the units used in the formula. The value given above,
8.314472, is for the SI units of pascal cubic meters per mole per Kelvin, which is equal to
joule per mole per kelvin (J mol-1 K-1). Another value for R is 0.082057 L·atm·mol−1·K−1)
38
Lecture Notes PHY143
UiTM Pulau Pinang
"R" has a different value for each different unit of pressure used. The values are... R =
8.314472 (pascals/kPa) R = .0821 (atms) R = 62.4 (torr/mmHg) R = 1.2 (psi)
The ideal gas law is the most accurate for monoatomic gases at high temperatures and low
pressures. This follows because the law neglects the size of the gas molecules and the
intermolecular attractions. Obviously the neglect of molecular size becomes less important
for larger volumes, i.e., for lower pressures. The relative importance of intermolecular
attractions diminishes with increasing thermal kinetic energy 3kT/2, i.e., with increasing
temperatures. The more accurate Van der Waals equation takes into consideration molecular
size and attraction. The ideal gas law mathematically follows from statistical mechanics of
primitive identical particles (point particles without internal structure) which do not interact,
but exchange momentum (and hence kinetic energy) in elastic collisions.
