    Photons Moving Through a Single Slit (Uncertainty)

    Homework Statement The diagram is attached. Photons are being beamed with momentum \rho_{0} and mass m at a slit of width A Estimate the uncertainty \Delta p_{y} emerging from A Sketch spot size at B as a function of slit width using the uncertainty principle Determine minimum spot size...

    Photons per Unit Volume (Quantum)

    I see what you're saying. Then the number of photons per volume in a black body from \lambda to d\lambda should be simply \frac{8\pi}{\lambda^{4}}\frac{d\lambda}{e^{hc/(\lambda)KT}-1}? It seems too easy though

    Photons per Unit Volume (Quantum)

    Using your hint I believe I need to integrate from 0→∞ \frac{8(\pi)hc}{\lambda^{5}}\frac{d\lambda}{e^{hc/(\lambda)KT}-1}\frac{\lambda}{hc} I used E=\frac{hc}{\lambda} for the energy of a photon. My final integral appears to be...

    Square Loop Moving Through Varying Magnetic Field

    Fairly certain I found out the answer to be αL2v This is the same as I found before, but now I am using the proper method. Thanks!

    Square Loop Moving Through Varying Magnetic Field

    If you divide a square into infinitesimal segments along the y-axis (I am assuming because the field changes with x?), the breadth would be x (L), and I would assume area would be Ldy This would leave \phiB=αexL∫^{y}_{0}dy Is this along the right track? I appreciate your reply!

    Square Loop Moving Through Varying Magnetic Field

    Homework Statement A square loop of side length L is moving in the x direction with velocity v. v=vx. B points along the z axis and is defined by B=αxez where α is a constant. Find EMF along the loop Hint: Find forces on charges in rod by virtue of motion of the rod.Homework Equations...

    Two Infinitely Long Perpendicular Wires

    I was able to leave it in the integral form and it was acceptable. Thank you for your help!

    Two Infinitely Long Perpendicular Wires

    The work is shown in the image in my last post, but essentially I ended up with dF=μ0I12ydy/2∏(d2+y2) -k dyj crossed with the j component of the magnetic field zeros out, leaving only the -k component

    Two Infinitely Long Perpendicular Wires

    You have been a tremendous help so far, I genuinely appreciate it as vector calculus and trig have never been strong points of mine I worked through the problem keeping it in vector form but I don't get a convergent integral. I got dF to be in the -k direction which is into the page and what...

    Two Infinitely Long Perpendicular Wires

    I have drawn the image as you depicted, and I see the B field, and was able to relate the angle the B field was going off at (90 degrees to the hypotenuse of an imposed triangle in the clockwise direction). I know it seems silly, but I am having an issue relating magnitude and direction to y...

    Two Infinitely Long Perpendicular Wires

    Homework Statement Wire Ia and wire Ib are infinitely long and perpendicular to each other, separated by distance d. Wire a has current Ia and the direction of current is into the page. Wire b has current Ib and the direction of current is straight up. What is the force per length of Ia on Ib...
