Consider a helium atom (m= 6.6m10^-27 kg) that is confined to mobility along a line with a lenghth of 12 A^o moving with a speed of 1500m/s. What is the nearest quantum number ?
The energies in a 2D particle-in-a-box are given by
h²
8mL 2
in which the box is a square enclosure with Lx = Ly = L, and nx, ny = 1, 2, 3,... .
(a) If the particle is an electron and L = 300 pm (assume three significant figures), find the value of the lowest energy
level in units of 10-18 J (that is, if the energy is 5.00 × 10-18 J, you would report it as "5.00").
