The problem: A simple cubic metal has an electron density such that the Fermi energy just touches the edge of the first Brillouin zone. Calculate the number of conduction electrons per atom for this condition to be fulfilled. The attempt at a solution: I know that the electron density for a...

Homework Statement I'm having a problem using the fresnel formulae for these two problems below: 1. Using Fresnel formulae and expression for the Poynting vector show that at the interface between two dielectrics in the absence of absorption R+T=1, where R – is reflectivity and T –...

x = 2

I've used your idea to come up with: F = E/L*A*ΔL Is this right? Thanks.

Homework Statement Hi all I'm new and wondering if you could help me rearrange this equation for a Young Modulus question: Homework Equations Equation for Young Modulus is E = F*L/A*ΔL * is multiplied / is divide How can I make F the subject of this equation? The Attempt at a...
