Calculate the angular momentum of the Moon due to its orbital motion about Earth. In your calculation use 3.84 x 108 m as the average Earth–Moon distance and 2.36 x 106 s as the period of the Moon in its orbit. (b) If the angular momentum of the Moon obeys Bohr’s quantization rule (L = n h), determine the value of the quantum number n. (c) By what fraction would the Earth–Moon radius have to be increased to increase the quantum number by 1?
A) By what factor is the uncertainty of the electron's position(1.36×10-4 m) larger than the diameter of the hydrogen atom?(Assume the diameter of the hydrogen atom is 1.00×10-8 cm.) B) Use the Heisenberg uncertainty principle to calculate Δx for a ball (mass = 122 g, diameter = 8.50 cm) with Δv = 0.425 m/s. C) The uncertainty of the (above) ball's position is equal to what factor times the diameter of the ball?
