e. Consider one unit cell and assume the length of the side of the cube is “a”. Remember that “a” is the distance between the centers of two adjacent atoms. How long is “a”, the edge of a unit cell, in terms of radius, r, of an atom? Write also your answer in the summary table.Answer: __________f. Based on the earlier questions, a simple cubic cell has the equivalent of only 1 atom. Recall the volume of sphere with radius, r, is expressed as V = 4/3 πr3. With this information, find the total volume of all the spheres in this unit cell, expressed in terms of r. (Hint: To do this, take the total number of atoms and multiply it by the volume of one atom, with radius, r)Answer: __________
Hi, could I get some help with this macro-connection physics problem involving the Ideal Gas Law? The set up is: What is the average volume in nm3 (cubic nanometers) taken up by molecules of an ideal gas at room temperature (taken as 300 K), and 1 atm of pressure or 101325 N/m2 to 4 digits of precision if kB = 1.38e-23 J/K and 1 nm = 10-9 m? Thank you.
Problem 1: This problem concerns a collection of N identical harmonic oscillators (perhaps an Einstein solid) at temperature T. The allowed energies of each oscillator are 0, hf, 2hf, and so on. a) Prove =1+x + x² + x³ + .... Ignore Schroeder's comment about proving 1-x the formula by long division. Prove it by first multiplying both sides of the equation by (1 – x), and then thinking about the right-hand side of the resulting expression. b) Evaluate the partition function for a single harmonic oscillator. Use the result of (a) to simplify your answer as much as possible. c) Use E = - дz to find an expression for the average energy of a single oscillator. z aB Simplify as much as possible. d) What is the total energy of the system of N oscillators at temperature T?
