    Calculate Total Energy Radiated by Sun During Evolution

    as the sun evolved it contracted, its internal energy changing fro x to y. what's the total energy radiated, assuming luminosity is comparable with present? I understand that the rate of change of the internal energy = rate at which energy is radiated away by the star.. but i have been...

    Energy levels of partciles in a 3D box

    thanks for your help. Definitly think its an error as the sentance doesn't really make sense.

    Energy levels of partciles in a 3D box

    zero is an integer, The lowest energy is (nx,ny,nz)=(0,0,0)

    Energy levels of partciles in a 3D box

    Okay, thanks for your help! It seems a bit strange though how this question is kindof a trick question seeing as its asking about 10 electrons. and its worth 6 marks so i don't know how it can be a trick... Does anyone else know? Emily.

    Energy levels of partciles in a 3D box

    It says "where nx, ny and nz are integers 0."

    Energy levels of partciles in a 3D box

    Energy levels of a particle in cubic box with sides length a are: E= [(h^2 pi^2)/(2 m a^2)] * (nx^2 + ny^2 + nz^2) where nx, ny, nz are integers 0. If 10 electrons are placed in this box, what is the lowest possible total energy of all the electron? ......... I am finding this...

    Understanding the Force Constants of Springs in Combination

    I don't understand how to calculate force constants of a combination of springs. for example 2 spings parallel with the mass on one end lying on a table. or 2 springs attached with mass at one end lying on a table. i know that force constant = sum of forces/ extension but just...
