Homework Statement
The relative population of two atomic population states in equilibrium is given by Boltzmann Distribution:
n1/n0 (proportional to) e^(-ε/(κT)) , where ε is the energy difference between the two states, T is the temperature and κ is the Boltzmann constant = (1.38 x...
Homework Statement
A block of mass 1.2kg, resting on a horizontal surface of coefficient of kinetic friction of .15, is attached to a linear spring of force constant 12.0 N/m. When the spring is unstretched the mass is at a position x=0. THe mass is pulled to the right streching the spring a...
