(a)

To determine

Wavelength of the photon emitted when an electron in a three dimensional box of side length 8.00×1011m makes a transition from the nX=2 , nY=2 , nZ=1 state to the nX=1 , nY=1 , nZ=1 state.

O The electron transitions to the n 2 state. O The electron transitions to the n = 5 state. O The electron is captured by the nucleus. A hypothetical atom has three energy levels: the ground-state level and levels 1.25 eV and 2.75 eV above the ground state. When this atom is in the ground state, what wavelengths of light may it absorb? Let Planck's constant h = 4.136 x 10 eV s, and the speed of light c= 3.00 x 10° m/s. O451 nm and 993 nm O 451 nm, 827 nm, and 993 nm O 827 nm and 993 nm O451 nm and 827 nm
b. An electron (m = 9.1 x 10-31 kg) is confined to a one-dimensional box of length 4.0 x 10-10 m. Calculate the energy gap between the ground state and the 1st excited state of the electron. What wavelength corresponds to a spectral transition between the two states?
A.  Electrons are ejected from a metal surface with speeds ranging up to 4.72E+5m/s when light with a wavelength of lambda = 650nm is used. What is the work function (in eV) of the surface?  B. What is the cutoff frequency for this surface?
