Spheriak Harmonics and their Applications im Physics
Uvod u sferne harmonike započinjemo Laplaceovom diferencijalnom jednadžbom u sfernim
koordinatama. Sferne harmonike predstavljamo kao rješenje kutnog dijela Laplaceove
jednadžbe. Nakon upoznavanja sa svojstvima sfernih harmonika iskoristit ćemo Laplaceov
razvoj kako bi pronašli električni potencijal na površini sfere s danim rubnim uvjetom. U
daljnjem izlaganju upoznat ćemo se s operatorom kutne količine gibanja i pomoću njega
definirati Clebsch-Gordanove koeficijente te sfernim tenzorima pomoću kojih ćemo definirati
Wignerove matrice, ali i neke druge bitne identitete koji koriste sferne harmonike. Na kraju rada
ćemo ukratko reći nešto o vektorskim sfernim harmonicima.We begin our thesis with Laplace`s equation in a spherical coordinate system. Spherical
harmonics are represented as a solution to the angular part of Laplace`s equation. After
familiarising ourselves with the properties of spherical harmonics, we will use Laplace
expansion to find electric potential on the surface of a sphere with a given boundary condition.
Furthermore, we are going to use angular momentum operator to define Clebsch-Gordan
coefficients. In addition, we would familiarise ourselves with the concept of spherical tensors,
and using them we would define Wigner matrices and some other important spherical harmonics
identities. Finally, we would mention vector spherical harmonics and some of their properties
Distribution of Ambient Dose Equivalent in the City of Slavonski Brod
U prvih nekoliko poglavlja ovog diplomskog rada dana je kratka teorijska podloga, u kojoj
su opisani osnovni pojmovi iz radioekologije, počevši od same definicije zračenja, do definicija
osnovnih dozimetrijskih veličina. U nastavku rada dana je metodologija mjerenja brzine
ambijentalnog doznog ekvivalenta na području grada Slavonskog Broda, koja su provedena
tijekom srpnja i kolovoza 2016. godine, u cilju ispitivanja potencijalnog utjecaja rafinerije nafte
Brod, koja je smještena uz obalu rijeke Save, na ozračenje stanovništva Slavonskog Broda. Uz ove
rezultate, također su izloženi i rezultati dobiveni uzorkovanjem rijeke Save i tla na području grada.
Grafički prikaz dobivenih rezultata predstavljen je unutar web GIS aplikacije, koja u ovisnosti o
korisničkom upitu selektira i izdvaja tražene položajne i atributne podatke o mjernim točkama.In the first few chapters of this master thesis a short theoretical background was given, in
which the basic concepts from radioecology were described, begining from the definition of the
radiation itself, to the definitions of a basic dosimetric quantities. In the following chapters, a
methodology of measuring ambient dose rate equivalent in the city of Slavonski Brod during the
period of July, 2016. to August, 2016., was given. The primary goal of this research was to examine
the potential influence of oil refinery Brod, situated along the Sava River, on ionizing radiation
exposure of the population of Slavonski Brod. Apart from this results, the results of Sava River
and soil sampling on locations in the city area were also presented. Cartographic view of the
recorded data is displayed within the web GIS application, which selects and extracts requested
spacial and attribute information about meaurement points, depending on the user made queries
The Difference Between Mathematical and Physical View on the Falling Ladder Problem
Padajuće ljestve su dobar primjer kojim se može pokazati ključna razlika između
matematike i fizike.Jednostavan i naizgled prihvatljiv matematički model daje predviđanje koje
se očito ne slaže s iskustvom: brzina vrha padajućih ljestvi teži u beskonačno kad kut koji ljestve
zatvaraju s podom teži u nulu. U matematičkom je svijetu takvo ponašanje sasvim legitimno.
No takav model očito ne opisuje dobro fizički svjet - svijet u kojem živimo. Za opis fizičkog
svijeta model treba nadograditi. Drugim riječima, treba u obzir uzeti neka ograničenja koja
nameće fizika. Zbog tih ograničenja jednadžbe obično postaju zamršenije pa ih je teže riješiti,
no predviđanja modela bolje se slažu s opažanjima.
U ovom radu jednostavan matematički model padajućih ljestvi nadograđen je u dvije
etape. U jednostavnijem slučaju uzeta je u obzir činjenica da ljestve imaju masu (zbog koje u
gravitacijskom polju padaju), ali je ta masa stavljena u središte ljestvi. Korštena je, dakle,
dinamika točkatog tijela. U realističnijem slučaju masa je jednoliko raspoređena po ljestvama.
Tu je korištena dinamika krutog tijela. U oba je slučaja, radi jednostavnosti, trenje bilo
zanemareno. Oba fizička modela, očekivano, daju konačnu brzinu vrha padajućih ljestvi kad
ljestve dođu u vodoravni položaj.Falling ladders is a good example which can show the key difference between
mathematics and physics. A simple and seemingly acceptable mathematical model gives
prediction which obviously does not agree with experience: the speed at the top of the ladder
tends to infinity when the angle between the ladder and the floor tends to zero. In the
mathematical world such behavior is quite legitimately. But such model obviously does not
describe good physical world – the world we live in. To describe the physical world, the model
needs to be upgraded. In other words, it is necessary to take some restrictions imposed by
physics. Because of that restrictions, equations usually become more complicated and it's more
difficult to solve them. But that model predictions better get along with observations.
In this work, a simple mathematical model of falling ladders has been upgraded into
two stages. In the easier case we took a fact that ladders have a mass (because they fall in the
gravity field), but that mass is placed in the center of the ladder. So, the dynamics of the dot
body has been used. In a more realistic case, the mass is uniformly deployed by ladders. Solid
body dynamics has been used here. In both cases, for simplicity, friction was neglected. As
expected, both physical models give the ultimate speed of the top of the ladder when the ladder
comes to the horizontal position

Torsion Balance-Coulombo's Law
U diplomskom radu predstavljen je Coulombov zakon te eksperiment za potvrdu tog zakona
pomoću torzijske vage. Cilj rada bio je prikazati povijesni prikaz otkrića Coulombova zakona,
definirati i matematički zapisati taj zakon te ga eksperimentalno potvrditi izvedbom pokusa
pomoću torzijske vage. Kao uvod u problematiku rada opisana je Coulombova metoda potvrde
zakona, a ujedno je prikazana i matematička teorijska podloga. Glavni dio rada isključivo
je eksperimentalne prirode i temelji se na pripremi postava torzijske vage u laboratoriju Odjela
za fiziku te izvedbi eksperimenta u svrhu dokazivanja Coulombova zakona. Eksperiment je
podijeljen na dva dijela kako bi ispitali različite ovisnosti kuta otklona (sile). U posljednjem
dijelu rada, podaci dobiveni iz oba dijela eksperimenta, se tablično i grafički analiziraju te se
provjerava potvrda Coulombova zakona elektrostatike.This master thesis presents Coulomb's law and experiment with torsion balance as
confirmation of this law. The purpose of this paper is to present historic discovery of Coulomb's
law, to determine mathematically this law and to experimentally analyze and confirm this law
with torsion balance as main device. As an introduction to this paper we gave the explanation of
Coulomb's method of finding the law and after that we analyzed in detail theoretical
mathematical background of this law. The main part of the paper is of experimental nature and is
based on preparation of torsion balance in possession of our Department of Physics and
performing the actual experiment for confirming the law. Experiment is divided into two parts
with purpose of testing different dependences of torsion displacement angle (force). In the last
part, there are shown graphic and tabular analysis of data collected from both parts of experiment
with purpose of confirming the Coulomb's law of electrostatics
The Three Body Problem
Tema ovog rada je generalni problem triju tijela. Općenito, taj problem nije analitički rješiv
stoga se stavlja naglasak na reducirani problem triju tijela. Reducirani problem riješio je Lagrange,
koji je rekao da treće tijelo zanemarive mase može nesmetano opstati u sustavu na položaju pet
točaka koje su po njemu dobile naziv Lagrangeove točke .
U radu ću detaljno opisati stabilnost tih točaka te se uvjeriti da su tri točke nestabilne ,
a preostale dvije stabilne . Te točke od velike su praktične važnosti, a potvrda njihova
postojanja su grupa asteroida poznati pod nazivom „Trojanci“.The theme of this thesis is the general problem of three bodies. Generally, this problem is
not analytically solved, therefore we emphasize the reduced problem of the three bodies. Reduced
problem was solved Lagrange, who said that a third body of negligible mass can freely exist in the
system at the position of five points that are named after him, Lagrange point .
I will describe the stability of these points in detail and indicate that the three points are unstable
, and the remaining two are stable . These points are of great practical
significance, and proof of their existence is a group of asteroids known as "Trojans"
