An electron confined to a one-dimensional box has a ground-state energy of 35.0 eV. If the box were somehow made twice as long, how would the photon's energy change for the same transition (first excited state to ground state)? o O increase the energy to three times as much as before o reduce the energy to one third as much as before o reduce the energy to one fourth as much as before o ) reduce the energy to one...

(20 points) Treat the hydrogen atom as a one-dimensional problem, where the electron is confined to the diameter of the atom in the first excited state (n-2). a.) Use the uncertainty principle to estimate the minimum kinetic energy of an electron in this state, assuming that the uncertainty in position equal to it's diameter. (Note: Relativistic corrections are not necessary). b.) Assuming this excited electron only remains in this state for 0.1 ns, before emitting a photon and returning to...
