We are going to use Heisenberg's uncertainty principle to estimate the ground-
state energy of hydrogen. In our model, the electron is confined in a one-
dimensional well with a length about the size of hydrogen, so that Ax = 0.0529
nm. Estimate Ap, and then assume that the ground-state energy is
roughly Ap2/2me. (Give your answer in Joules or electron-volts.)
An electron is in an infinite square well of width 2.0 nm. What is the wavelength of the emitted photon in nanometers as the electron transitions from the n=8 to the n=4 state? (h = 6.626 × 10-34 J ∙ s, mel = 9.11 × 10-31 kg, 1 eV = 1.60 × 10-19J). Please give your answer with no decimal places.
An electron is trapped in an infinitely deep one-dimensional well of width 0,251 nm. Initially the electron occupies the n=4 state. Suppose the electron jumps to the ground state with the accompanying emission of photon. What is the energy of the photon?
