(a) Find the mass density of a proton, modeling it as a solid sphere of radius 1.00 x 10-15 m. (b) What If? Consider a classical model of an electron as a uniform solid sphere with the same density as the proton. Find its radius. (c) Imagine that this electron possesses spin angular momentum Iω = h/2 because of classical rotation about the z axis. Determine the speed of a point on the equator of the electron. (d) State how this speed compares with the speed of light.
(a) Calculate: (i) the energy spacing AE between the ground state and the first excited state of the hydrogen atom; (ii) and the ratio AE/E between the spacing and the ground state energy. (b) Consider now a macroscopic system: a simple pendulum which consists of a 5 g mass attached to a 2 m long, massless and inextensible string. Calculate (i) the total energy E1 of the pendulum when the string makes an angle of 60° with the vertical; (ii) the frequeney of the pendulum's small oscillations and the energy AE of one quantum; and (iii) the ratio AE/E1. (c) Examine the sizes of the ratio AE/E1 calculated in parts (a) and (b) and comment on the importance of the quantum effects for the hydrogen atom and the pendulum.
(a) Predict the energy in eV of a photon emitted in a transition from the first excited state to the ground state in eV for a system consisting of a nucleus containing Z = 50 protons and just one electron. You need not recapitulate the entire derivation for the Bohr model, but think carefully about the changes you have to make to take into account the factor Z. (b) The negative muon (μ−) behaves like a heavy electron, with the same charge as the electron but with a mass 207 times as large as the electron mass. As a moving μ− comes to rest in matter, it tends to knock electrons out of atoms and settle down onto a nucleus to form a "one-muon" atom. For a system consisting of a nucleus of platinum (Pt195 with 78 protons and 117 neutrons) and just one negative muon, predict the energy in eV of a photon emitted in a transition from the first excited state to the ground state. The high-energy photons emitted by transitions between energy levels in such "muonic atoms" are easily observed in…
