If we decrease the size of a quantum dot that contains an electron, what happens to the energy levels?
1 answer:
We will solve this problem using the direct concept related to band gap energy, that is, a band gap is the distance between the valence band of electrons and the conduction band, i. e, the energy range in a solid where no electron states (Electronic state) can exist Mathematically can be described as,
Where,
h = Planck's constant
n = Energy level
mc = Effective mass of the point charge
R = Size of the particle
As you can see the energy is inversely proportional to the size of the particle:
Therefore if the size is decreased, the amount of energy is increased.

A. 4.47 m/s
Explanation:
As the ball oscillates, it mechanical energy, aka the total kinetic and elastics energy stays the same. For the ball to be at maximum speed, its elastic energy i 0 and vice versa. When the ball is at rest, its kinetic energy is 0 and its elastic energy is at maximum at 50 cm, or 0.5 m
1500 g = 1.5 kg
Answer:
If R₂=25.78 ohm, then R₁=10.58 ohm
If R₂=10.57 then R₁=25.79 ohm
Explanation:
R₁ = Resistance of first resistor
R₂ = Resistance of second resistor
V = Voltage of battery = 12 V
I = Current = 0.33 A (series)
I = Current = 1.6 A (parallel)
In series
In parallel
Solving the above quadratic equation
∴ If R₂=25.78 ohm, then R₁=10.58 ohm
If R₂=10.57 then R₁=25.79 ohm
