We have a quantum mechanical system that has two states, one at energy 2ev and another at energy 3ev . We put this system in an equal superposition of these two states. Enter the frequency in Hz (cycles per second) of the resulting oscillation of this system. (Please give your answer to three significant figures. If you were entering a number 1.23 times 10 to the power 45, you could type 1.23e45.)

What is the probability that a number n, 1 ≤ n ≤ 99, is divisible by both 6 and 10? By either 6 or 10 or both?
Albert Einstein is pondering how to write his (soonto-be-famous) equation. He knows that energy E is a function of mass m and the speed of light c, but he doesn't know the functional relationship (E = m2c? E = mc4?). Pretend that Albert knows nothing about dimensional analysis, but since you are taking a fluid mechanics class, you help Albert come up with his equation. Use the step-by-step method of repeating variables to generate a dimensionless relationship between these parameters, showing all of your work. Compare this to Einstein's famous equation—does dimensional analysis give you the correct form of the equation?
Why does the equation 2 and 3 has the presence of sin and cos and negative sign in Ta in equation 2?

My physics class has turned to online due to the COVID-19 and I am having trouble with some of the word problems my teacher gave me to work on. She presented me with: I am contemplating a career change. If I had 500g of stolen gold jewelry, how much energy would I have to add to it to melt it (so that it was not longer recognizable)? Pretend that it is pure gold. Would you be able to show me how to accomplish this problem so I can see the steps? Thank you for your time. John Payton
2) You are hiking along a trail in a wide, dry canyon where the outdoor temperature is T = 32° C. To determine how far you are away from the canyon wall you yell “Hello” and hear the echo t = 3.5 s later. Randomized Variables T = 32° C t = 3.5 s a) Calculate the speed of sound in the valley in meters per second, assuming the speed at 0° C is 330 m/s. b) How far are you from the canyon wall, in meters? c) If you stood at the same point on a cold morning where the temperature was T2 = -3.5 degrees C, how long would it have taken for you to hear the echo, in seconds?

robert wants to know his body mass to arbitrary precision. he has a big balancing scale that works perfectly, an unlimited collection of 1 -kg weights, and nine each of 0.1 -kg, 0.01 -kg, 0.001 -kg, and so on weights. assuming the scale is big enough, can he do this? what does this have to do with infinite series?

Could someone explain to me in detail why bringing a crystal substance to absolute zero isn't possible? I know it's not because of quantum mechanics and uncertainty like some people say, because particals at their lowest zero-point will have a temperature of exactly 0 K, even though they're still experiencing motion. From what I've gathered, the energy or time required to pull it off is infinite, but I can't find any equations or clear explanations as to why or how that is. And I also don't know if there's any other reasons beyond that. If you could give me a thourough a breakdown for how absolute zero is impossible as you possibly could, I'd greatly appreciate it. Take as much extra time as you need. As long as it's detailed and correct I'm happy. Though ideally I would before it come in before the end of the day.
