Hi friends. I'm doing a homework problem about how degenerate orbitals split in the presence of a magnetic field. I understand everything, but I was just had a question about notation.
ΔE, the energy between degenerate orbitals in a magnetic field equals μB = (e*hbar/2m)B
I was just wondering what the m is? Is it mass? Since I'm using the hydrogen atom, do I just use the mass of the hydrogen atom? Thanks,
