(a)

To determine

Use Fermi’s Golden Rule to compute the rate of which electrons are ejected into the solid angle dΩ in the dipole approximation.

(b)

To determine

Integrate the results from (a) over all angles to obtain Riall and compute photoelectric cross section.

(c)

To determine

To obtain a numerical value for the photoelectric cross section for ultraviolet light of wavelength 220A0, in the ground state of hydrogen, express the answer in mega-barns.

Q # 01: Consider a ball of 100g dropped with zero velocity from the height of 2m. Estimate its total energy in eV units. Using the energy conservation, find out the velocity as a function of position of the ball. Sketch its phase trajectory. Calculate the time it takes to reach the ground. Let’s assume that it is bounced back with no loss in its total energy.Will it reachthe same height? Make an analytical argument. What if the collision with the ground is not elastic and it loses some of its energy (which energy?).The ball will eventually come to rest after bouncing few times. Sketch the phase trajectory for the whole duration. What is the range of total energy of this system? Can the energy of this systemassume discrete values? Explain mathematically.
In his original paper, de Broglie suggested that E = hv and p = h/λ, which hold for electromagnetic waves, are also valid for moving particles. Use these relationships to show that the group velocity ug of a de Broglie wave group is given by dE/dp, and with the help of Eq. (1.24), verify that vg = v for a particle of velocity v.
Suppose someone is running a fever of 102.0° F (average being 98.6° F). How much more power (in Watts) does this person radiate than when this person is at normal human body temperature, assuming the fever causes no swelling or edema, or emaciation? Remember that for thermal radiators, intensity I = sigma T^4; where sigma is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant and T is temperature in Kelvins.
