Suppose that 4 are the limits to the values of for an electron in an atom. (a) How many different values of the electron’s morb,z are possible? (b) What is the greatest magnitude of those possible values? Next, if the atom is in a magnetic field of magnitude 0.250 T, in the positive direction of the z axis, what are (c) the maximum energy and (d) the minimum energy associated with those possible values of morb,z?

Suppose that 4 are the limits to the values of for an electron
in an atom. (a) How many different values of the electron’s
morb,z are possible? (b) What is the greatest magnitude of those possible
values? Next, if the atom is in a magnetic field of magnitude
0.250 T, in the positive direction of the z axis, what are (c) the maximum
energy and (d) the minimum energy associated with those
possible values of morb,z?
