3. Calculate, for the judge, how fast you were going in miles per hour when you ran the red light because it appeared Doppler-shifted green to you. Take red light to have a wavelength of 650 nm and green to have a wavelength of 550 nm Throughout this homework assignment, you may use c to denote the speed of light in both your work and final answers without using its numerical value. (This is actually preferred unless the problem requires...

The standard frequency of the musical pitch called “middle C” is 261.6 Hz. How fast, in meters per second, would a source emitting a tone of middle C have to move toward you so that you would hear the pitch C# (C sharp) above middle C, with a frequency of 277.2 Hz? Assume that takes place in air at a high altitude, where the speed of sound is 303 m/s please show work

3. [5] Retinal consists of a chain of carbon atoms roughly 1.5 nm long. Electrons in this long chain molecule behave very much like particles in a box The retinal molecule is a linear molecule that has 12 electrons that are free to move about the chain According to the Pauli exclusion principle, when this molecule is in its ground state, these 12 electrons fill the first 6 states of the box. Thus, the lowest energy photon that can be...
