(b) For each value of L, find all the possible angles between L → and the z-axis. (c) What are the maximum and minimum values of the magnitude of the angle between L →and the z-axis?
So Determine the distance between the electron and proton in an atom if the potential energy ?U of the electron is 15.4 eV (electronvolt, 1 eV =1.6×10−19=1.6×10−19 J). Give your answer in Angstrom (1 A = 10-10 m)
