    Generalization of the bohr rule for harmonic oscillators

    I don't see how that integral would yield the correct answer at all though... You end up with a pretty complicated expression that is difficult to simplify

    Generalization of the bohr rule for harmonic oscillators

    I'm just confused as to what to do with E mainly... when I isolate my expression for p I'm left with p = sqrt(2mE-m^2w^2x^2) how do I integrate this when I have E in my expression for p?

    Generalization of the bohr rule for harmonic oscillators

    Homework Statement The generalization of the bohr rule to periodic motion more general than circular orbit states that: ∫p.dr = nh = 2∏nh(bar). the integral is a closed line integral and the bolded letters represent vectors. Using the generalized, show that the spectrum for the...

    Computing the age of the universe at the big crunch

    Homework Statement Consider a universe where there are two types of matter: dust and curvature. The density of dust evolves with time as ρdust(t) = ρ0R(t)^(−3) and curvature evolves as ρcurvature = −kR(t)^(-2) where ρ0 and k are constants. The Friedmann equation is: H^2 = [(8∏G)/3][ρdust...
