Answer to Problem 1P

The de Broglie wavelength is 1.26×1010m.

Explanation of Solution

The angular wave number from the wave function is 5.00×1010m1.

Write the expression to calculate the wavelength.

  λ=2πk

Here, λ is the wavelength and k is the angular wave number.

Write the expression to calculate 5.00×1010m1 for k in the above equation to calculate λ.

  λ=2π5.00×1010m1=1.26×1010m

Conclusion:

Therefore, the de Broglie wavelength is 1.26×1010m.

(b)

Answer to Problem 1P

The magnitude of momentum is 5.26×1024kgm/s.

Explanation of Solution

Write the expression to calculate the momentum.

  p=hλ

Here, p is the momentum and h is the Planck’s constant.

Substitute 6.626×1034Js for h and 1.26×1010m for λ in the above equation to calculate p.

  p=6.626×1034Js1.26×1010m=5.26×1024kgm/s

Conclusion:

Therefore, the magnitude of momentum is 5.26×1024kgm/s.

(c)

To determine

The kinetic energy in electron volts.

Answer to Problem 1P

The kinetic energy in electron volts is 95.0eV.

Explanation of Solution

Write the expression to calculate the kinetic energy.

  K=p22m

Here, K is the kinetic energy and m is the mass of electron.

Substitute 5.26×1024kgm/s for p and 9.11×1031kg for m in the above equation to calculate K.

  K=(5.26×1024kgm/s)22(9.11×1031kg)=1.52×1017J(1eV1.602×1019J)=95.0eV

Conclusion:

Therefore, the kinetic energy in electron volts is 95.0eV.

They obtained a positive photoresist, a used spin coater, a high energy light lamp for exposure and ordered a plastic transparency mask with a pattern on it to reduce cost. Upon trying this set up multiple times they find that the full resist gets developed, and they are unable to transfer the pattern onto the resist. Help them troubleshoot and find out why pattern of transfer has not been successful. 5. You are given a composite…
