    Distribution of electrons below the Fermi energy

    I feel dumb that I can't figure this out. I'm sure its something simple that I'm just not seeing, but its really frustrating. Homework Statement How many electrons (in percent of the total number of electrons per mole) lie KbT (ev) below the Fermi energy? Take Ef=5eV and T=300K...

    Understanding Cylindrical Vector Fields: Can They Be Electrostatic?

    Duh. I knew I was just being stupid. I had to do a couple similar problems earlier. Gah. Thanks a bunch :) Too many hours doing homework...

    Understanding Cylindrical Vector Fields: Can They Be Electrostatic?

    I'm given this: A vector field is given in cylindrical coordinates as: F=(A)(s)(PhiHat) + (B)(z)(zhat) Where A and B are constants. Could F be an electrostatic field ? Why or why not ? I kind of feel stupid asking this because I feel like I should know, but, I'm currently braindead...
