| Note: #9 is similiar to #56, which we went over in class & on notes. 9. (a) f = c/lambda (b) The ratio (75 W) / hf = P/ hf is what you want. (c) Are the expressions in parts (a) and (b) the same? I think not, since the power P = 75 (W) is proportional to the intensity I, i.e, P = I*A . and the intensity P gives the *accumulated* energy (per unit time) in the beam, INDEPENDENT OF THE NUMBER OF ELECTRONS IN THE BEAM. The actual number of electrons/sec is proportional to this quantity divided by the energy per photon. . | |||||
| 18. See figure 38.36. (a) Clearly it should take 20
eV. Please explain. (b) If 18 eV is absorbed by the atom in the n = 1
state, it will go into the n = 4 state. Please explain why with a
simple math statement, akin to balancing your check book. From there
it can go into several possible states, assuming there are no special
*selection rules* as occurs in the ZEEMAN EFFECT, which we covered
last Friday. Think of an airplane flight with stop off points. In this
case, from n = 4, the atom (airplane) might go to n = 3, n = 2 as stop
off points before continuing on. It could take a 'direct flight' to n
= 1. Think of all the possibilities---for example if the first stop
off point is n = 3, it might stop off again at n = 2 before continuing
on to the ground state! (c) If an 8 eV- photon strikes Searsium, there
is *not* enough energy to advance to the n = 2 level. Please explain
why with a simple math statement, akin to balancing your check book.
More discussions, including part (d) will be sent later today...just
wanted to give you a jumpstart. For more info go to www.nvaphysics.com, i.e., http://www.nvaphysics.com/ list; more discussions, i.e., 18 part (d) + #23, 25 and 26, are below. NOTE ON NOTATION: IN THE BELOW DISCUSSIONS, x^2 means x squared. i.e. x^2 = x*x. 18. (d) Any time an electron is emitted after being struck by a a photon of a certain energy hf, one can say the following: work function < hf , a result of the formula: KE = hf - work function > 0. hf - work function > 0 means hf > work function, my original assertion. In the case at hand work function < 5 eV = hf. I leave it to you to complete the condition by replacing the ? with a number (in eV) in the following inequality: ? < work function. What number ( in eV) should replace the ? symbol in the latter inequality? Re-read part (d) and the answer is yours.You will have the complete double inequality: min < work function < max, where we know max = 5 eV. |

| 23. En = -13,6 eV/n^2 = -1.51 eV. Solve
for n; n will be extremely close to an odd integer that will remain unnamed until you find it---round off n to the closest integer, then use L = n*h/(2*pi), Bohr's major hypothesis, to find L. |
|||||
| 25. See section 41.4 on approximations for multi-electron
atoms for more discussion of these results. As stated in that section, you should be able to derive the result in part (a) below by reading carefully the straight-forward derivation of Bohr energy levels in section 38.5 Z = 4 (a) For Be^3+, En = -(Z^2*13.6 eV)/n^2 in general. Set n = 1 to find the Be^3+ ground state energy E1. Note the factor Z^2 = Z*Z , where Z = 4. (b) The ionization energy is the photon energy required to raise the electron from the ground state (n = 1) to an energy of zero (n = infinity), which means the electron has escaped, ionizing the atom. The required energy is E(infinity) - E1 = 0 - [-Z^2*13.6 eV)/n^2], where n = 1 and Z = 4. (c) hc/lambda = E2 - E1. Find lambda and compare with 122 nm for Hydrogen. (d) Read derivations of equations 38.12 and 38.13 and solve the the following two equations (i) and (ii) simultaneously for rn as done on pp1323-4: (i) m*v^2/rn = (Z*k*e^2)/rn^2 (ii) m*v**rn = n*h/(2*pi) You will get something like equation 38.12, but there will be a factor of Z in the denominator. |

| 26. (a) E5 - E2 = hc/lambda. (b) Read p 1412, Ch. 41, on selection rules, which gives the real deal on atomic transitions in contrast to the naive approximation in this problem. The photon is a boson, named after celebrated Indian physicist Bose, who connected with Einstein to come up with 'Bose-Einstein' statistics. A boson is a particle with spin angular momentum based on a *whole* integer. (A lepton, in contrast, has spin based on a half -integer such as 1/2 in the case of the electron, the world's most famous lepton!) Without this post-Bohr historical background one might naively think the following: The change in angular momentum of the atom has magnitude 5*h/(2*pi) - 2*h/(2*pi) = 3*h/(2*pi); the atom loses angular momentum, so the change is - 3*h/(2*pi). If angular momentum is conserved, the emitted photon would have angular momentum of the same magnitude as the *change* in angular momentum experienced by the atom. As noted in Ch. 41, the modern quantum picture gives a different result: The photon ordinarily carries off *one* unit (h/[2*pi]) of angular momentum, which leads to the requirements that in a transition the quantum number L must change by 1 and mL must change by 0 or +1 or -1---read page 1412, on selection rules, within the coverage of last lecture (FRI 4/6). |

(a) See installment 2, # 26, which relies on eqns 38.12, 13.(b) (2*pi*Rn)/Tn = Vn , where Rn is the quantum radius and Vn is the quantum speed indexed by n. I use caps R amd V only to get subscript n. Evaluate for n = 1, 2 , 3. (c) Set n = 2 to perform calculation of number of orbits from ratio speed over circumference. |

| The next two were covered in installment 1 (# 9 )
and in most recent in-class notes distributed a week after lecture. In 29 you are computing a ratio; #30 contains elements within 29. 30. I'll explain (c) only since (a) and (b) are in #9. c*t = length of cylindrical pulse.You want to find the number of photons in the volume of the pulse. It can be found in this way: If P is the given power, then P/hf = # photons per sec passing through an area equal to cross-sectional area of cylinder. Simply multiply this ratio by time t. |

TEST 2 COVERS QUIZ 4, 5 AND 6. As far as Quiz 6 goes, only the first 6 problems are required and in this situation , when the due date is aligned with test date and little time for review,. we make the test very close to quiz problems to check if you are keeping up, we repeat quiz 6 on test 3 (TBA). 34.(a) charge*potential = h*c/lambda, where lambda is the minimum wavelength. This corresponds to the highest energy photon emitted when the electron comes to a dead stop, losing all its kinetic energy to a single light particle with energy h*c/lambda. (b) charge*potential = h*c/lambda. |

(a) See #34 to get the original wavelength. (b) In the following, lambda is the wavelength of the photon produced in part (a). lambda' is the longer photon wavelength after it is scattered. lambda ' - lambda = (h/mc)*( 1 - cos theta), where theta is the angle the photon makes with its original direction of motion. Note: lambda ' > lambda, as covered in class; the right hand side of the first equation above is never negative with a minimum of zero when theta = 0 (zero scattering of photon, which travels un-deflected ) and a maximum of 2h/mc.when theta = 180 degrees---the electron is back scattered in a direction opposite the original direction. In the latter case the photon loses the most energy to the electron. (c) Transform answer to (b) into eV. |

Use the formula for the surface area of a sphere, where the radius of one object is 3 times that of the other. Assume rho = rho' = 5.6704 x10 ^ - 8 W/(m^2*K^4), for an ideal black body .

| 47. This is easy up to a point. Differentiate eqn.
38.32 with respect to lambda and set the derivative equal to zero. You will be able to factor out a power of (e^hc/lambda*K*T - 1) to get eqn. 38.34. After that, the hard part is getting eqn. 38.33. |
