Consider a free Fermi gas in two dimensions, confined to a squarearea A = L2.
Because g(€) is a constant for this system, it is possible to carry out the integral 7.53 for the number of particles analytically. Do so, and solve for μ as a function of N. Show that the resulting formula has the expected qualitative behavior.
To obtain the value of an unknown electrical charge, a group performed an experiment. From the graph of the electric potential (voltage) V in volts, as a function of the inverse distance (1/r) in m^-1, the group obtained an angular coefficient 6838 Nm^2/C by the linear equation of the best straight line. Knowing that V=(kq)/r, calculate the value of the electric charge, in nC (nanocoulomb), from the slope provided by the best line.
Round the answer to a whole number.
Use:
k = 8.9876 x 10^9 N⋅m^2⋅C^−2
write the solution step by step and clearly.
