Hi everyone,
I'm trying to calculate the flow rate of air in straight tubing that is 30cm long and has a diameter of .1875 in and has an outlet into a 100 mL vial which is vented to the atmosphere. The starting of the system pressure is 20 psi and the ending psi is 14.6...
After time t, the probability of monochromatic absorption of the ground state |1> to the energy state |n> is given by:
|<n|1>|^2=4|U_{n1}|^2\frac{\sin^2((E_n-E_1-\hbar\omega)t/2\hbar)}{(E_n-E_1-\hbar\omega)^2}
where U is the transition matrix. The claim is that as t goes to infinity, the...
