You are in a bus travelling on a straight road at 20m/s. As you pass a gas station, your clock and a clock in station read precisely 0. You pass another gas station 900m farther down the road. (in the frame of reference of the gas stations., all gas station clocks synchronized.) (a) As you pass the: second station, do you find its clock to be ahead of, or: behind your own clock and (b) by how much?

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) The clock of second station is ahead clock in bus.

(b) The duration by which clock of second gas station is ahead of bus clock is 11013鈥剆.

Step by step solution

01

Identification of given data

The speed of bus is u=20鈥刴/蝉

The distance between gas stations is L=900鈥刴.

02

Definition of Time Dilation

The difference in the observed time and actual time of event due to the relative movement between observer and frame is called the time dilation.

03

Determine whether clock of second station is ahead or behind bus clock

As of initially clocks in bus reference frame and gas station reference frame reads 0 in the clock. To maintain the reading of clock of bus with second gas station clock, the second bus station clock should be ahead of bus clock.

Therefore, the clock of second station is ahead clock in bus.

04

Determination of time by which the clock is ahead your clock

The time reading of bus clock at second gas station is given as:

t=Lu

Substitute all the values in the above equation.

t=900鈥刴20鈥刴/st=45鈥剆

The duration by which clock of second gas station is ahead of bus clock is given as:

t1=t1v2c21/2t1t1v22c2

t1=ttv22c2tt1=tv22c2

Substitute all the values in the above equation.

tt1=tv22c2tt1=45鈥剆20鈥刴/s223108鈥刴/s2tt1=11013鈥剆

Therefore, the duration by which clock of second gas station is ahead of bus clock is 11013鈥剆.

Here we investigate the link between nand l, reflected in equation (7-33). (a) Show that if a classical point charge were held in a circular orbit about a fixed point charge by the Coulomb force, its kinetic energy would be given by KE=e2/80r (b) According to equation (7-30), the rotational kinetic energy in hydrogen is h2l(l+1)/2mr2. Of course, ris not well defined for a 鈥渃loud鈥, but by usingr=n2a0argue that the condition that l not exceed n is reasonable.

Question: The 2D Infinite Well: In two dimensions the Schr枚dinger equation is

(2x2+2y2)(x,y)=-2m(E-U)h2(x,y)

(a) Given that U is a constant, separate variables by trying a solution of the form (x,y)=f(x)g(y), then dividing byf(x)g(y) . Call the separation constants CX and CY .

(b) For an infinite well

role="math" localid="1659942086972" U={00<x<L,0<y<Lotherwise

What should f(x) and g(y) be outside the well? What functions should be acceptable standing wave solutions f(x) for g(y) and inside the well? Are CX and CY positive, negative or zero? Imposing appropriate conditions find the allowed values of CX and CY .

(c) How many independent quantum numbers are there?

(d) Find the allowed energies E .

(e)Are there energies for which there is not a unique corresponding wave function?

A particle of mass m and energy E moving in a region where there is initially no potential energy encounters a potential dip of width L and depth U=-Uo.

U(x)={0x0-Uo0<x<L0xL}

Show that the reflection probability is given by

R=sin2[2mE+UoL/]sin2[2mE+UoL/]+4(E/Uo)[E/Uo+1]

(Hint: All that is needed is an appropriate substitution in a known probability.)

Prove that fur any sine function sin(kx+)of wavelength shorter than 2a, where ais the atomic spacing. there is a sine function with a wavelength longer than 2a that has the same values at the points x = a , 2a , 3a . and so on. (Note: It is probably easier to work with wave number than with wavelength. We sick to show that for every wave number greater than there is an equivalent less than /a.)
