    What is the quantum of energy for an atomic oscillator in a block of magnesium?

    Does anyone know how to do the very last part on question 1?... There are 100 atoms in this object. What is the heat capacity on a per-atom basis? (Note that at high temperatures the heat capacity on a per-atom basis approaches the classical limit of 3k = 4.210-23 J/K/atom.) Heat capacity per...

    What is the quantum of energy for an atomic oscillator in a block of magnesium?

    i got the first question right with that equation, but I'm talking about the table and calculating the energy.

    What is the quantum of energy for an atomic oscillator in a block of magnesium?

    whenever I calculate the energy, I get an error on my calculator b/c it can't do 4.91e26 factorial. How did you input that as an answer?

    Angular Momentum of a wheel at a Location

    I added L of the wheel and L of clay. I also subtracted them and they were both incorrect. Is it the calculations?

    Angular Momentum of a wheel at a Location

    so the L for the wheel is I*omega where I = (8*.5)(.9)^2 and omega is just the .35rad/sec. Then you add that to the L of the clay which is R*p where R=1.8*(sqrt(2)/2)) and p = (.25*8). If so, i got it wrong.

    Angular Momentum of a wheel at a Location

    Homework Statement A device consists of eight balls each of mass 0.5 kg attached to the ends of low-mass spokes of length 1.8 m, so the radius of rotation of the balls is 0.9 m. The device is mounted in the vertical plane. The axle is held up by supports that are not shown, and the wheel is...

    Fusion Reaction really long problem

    I'm still confused how you got b. You find K for each by K = 1/2mv^2. And you find v by p/m. But how do you find p from p^2/(2*m(proton)) + p^2/(2*m(deuteron)) = Uelectric? If Uelectric = 1/(4*pi*epsilon)*Q*q/r is from parts c & d then how are you supposed to get b? I'm really confused.
