For Q6 through Q8, use the following information. A positronium atom is formed from an electron and a positron, the positron being a particle like an electron, with essentially the same mass, but with a positive charge. Presume that the model for a positronium atom is otherwise like the hydrogen atom, but with this different mass for the positively charged particle. The different reduced mass of this system will lead to different "Rydberg" and "Bohr radius" values. Give your answer to three significant figures, using scientific notation (i.e. 1.23e-3). What will be the "Rydberg" (and hence the magnitude of the "binding" energy), in eV, of this positronium particle?

You are studying a very distant quasar and are trying to determine how far away it is. The quasar is a very bright point-like light source, and there is only one relevant distance measuring technique applicable to objects at such a great distance. From a spectra of the quasar, you observe that it's Lyman alpha emission line (which would be at 121.6 nm in a laboratory sample of Hydrogen) is at 130 nm. What is the distance to this quasar in units of Mpc. [Hint: Think about what distance measuring technique we use for the very farthest objects in the universe. You will need to look up a special constant (who's value is uncertain) to complete this problem. The answer accounts for the possible range of uncertainty in the quantity you need to look up.]
