Chapter 2, Problem 50EAP

Observing Planetary Motion. Find out which planets are currently visible in your evening sky. At least once a week, observe the planets and draw a diagram showing the position of each visible planet relative to stars in a zodiac constellation. From week to week, note how the planets are moving relative to the stars. Can you see any of the apparently wandering features of planetary motion? Explain.

Paraxial design of a field flattener. Imagine your optical system has Petzal curvature of the field with radius p. In Module 1 of Course 1, a homework problem asked you to derive the paraxial focus shift along the axis when a slab of glass was inserted in a converging cone of rays. Find or re-derive that result, then use it to calculate the paraxial radius of curvature of a field flattener of refractive index n that will correct the observed Petzval. Assume that the side of the flattener facing the image plane is plano. What is the required radius of the plano-convex field flattener? (p written as rho )
3.37(a) Five free electrons exist in a three-dimensional infinite potential well with all three widths equal to \( a = 12 \, \text{Å} \). Determine the Fermi energy level at \( T = 0 \, \text{K} \).  (b) Repeat part (a) for 13 electrons.   Book: Semiconductor Physics and Devices 4th ed, NeamanChapter-3Please expert answer only. don't give gpt-generated answers, & please clear the concept of quantum states for determining nx, ny, nz to determine E, as I don't have much idea about that topic.
