Black body radiation -- Spherical shell surrounding a star
I don't understand how this can be solved. The official solution was: F=\sigma*T^4 E=F*4\pi R^2*60*60 This doesn't make sense to me, as it seems to imply that the energy that the black body radiates depends on the radius of the shell. For a very large shell the body will reflect...- Eitan Levy

Quantum mechanics - several constant potentials
I divided the first equation by the second: \frac{1}{k}tan(kb)=-\frac{1}{\alpha} And I plugged in the numbers. No units were provided.- Eitan Levy

Quantum mechanics - several constant potentials
What I tried to do was using the fact that the wave function should be continuous. Asin(kb)=Be^{-\alpha b} The derivative also should be continuous: kAcos(kb)=-\alpha Be^{-\alpha b} And the probability to find the particle in total should be 1: \int_0^b A^2sin^2(kx) dx + \int_b^{\infty}...- Eitan Levy

Definition of energy level width
My problem is that "width of energy level" was never defined in my class so I don't know how to proceed.- Eitan Levy

Definition of energy level width
First, it is easy to see that n=4 after the collision because: E_1=-13.6\frac{1^2}{1^2}eV=-13.6eV E_4=-13.6\frac{1^2}{4^2}eV=-0.85eV E_5=-13.6\frac{z^2}{5^2}eV=-0.544eVBut, I never saw a definition for the width of an energy level. I tried to use something I saw online that said it was...- Eitan Levy

Determining the direction of current due to a change in magnetic flux
This is supposed to be very basic, where the loop is held there is a declining magnetic field in direction (-z), therefore the current is supposed to be clockwise. However in the answers it is said the the current is anti clockwise. That doesn't make sense to me. Is there a mistake in the answers?- Eitan Levy

Voltage across an inductor after flipping a switch
One question about this - does the energy must be continuous in the entire circuit or in the inductor itself? Can the energy completely "disappear" from the inductor instantly, while moving somewhere else?- Eitan Levy

Finding the charge density of an infinite plate
One more thing regarding the original question. How did you know that on the grounded part the charge is 0?- Eitan Levy

Energy ratio of two systems with charged planes
I am sorry but I don't understand. I really don't know at all how to analyze this. If you are willing to do so please write how to analyze this probably. It will help me tremendously, I have already wasted hours on trying to understand this. EDIT: Let me elaborate. Let me elaborate. If the...- Eitan Levy

E
Energy ratio of two systems with charged planes
Well, then I assume that for the outer plates the charge is entirely on the lower part. The only way I am able to understand this is by thinking about the upper part of the middle plates and the lower part of each outer plate to be capacitors. So if each side of the middle plate has the charge...- Eitan Levy

The electric field inside a hole inside a conductor is still 0?
This is not a homework question but something that bugs me a bit. My professor has stated that the electric field inside a conductor is 0. This I understand. However, he has also said that even if the conductor has some hole in it, the electric field inside this hole is also 0 Now, two...- Eitan Levy
