If we decrease the size of a quantum dot that contains an electron, what happens to the energy levels?

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,

E_n = \frac{h^2n^2}{8mcR^2}

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:

E_n \propto \frac{1}{R^2}

Therefore if the size is decreased, the amount of energy is increased.

4.0 kg objects mive a distance of 7.8 m under the action of a cinstant gorce of 5.6 N. how much work is dine on object?
alexdok [17]

Answer:

43.68 J

Explanation:

Distance moved= 7.8 m

Force = 5.6 N

Work Done= Distance moved * Force

                   = 7.8 *5.6

                      =43.68 Joules

A square loop of wire is held in a uniform 0.24 T magnetic field directed perpendicular to the plane of the loop. The length of
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Magnetic field of 0.24T

B = 0.24T

Field perpendicular to plane i.e 90°

Rate of decrease of length of side of square is 5.4cm/s

dL/dt = 5.4cm/s = 0.054m/s

Since it is decreasing

Then, dL/dt = -0.054m/s

When L is 14cm, what is the EMF induced?

L = 14cm = 0.14m

EMF is give as

ε = - dΦ/dt

Where flux is given as

Φ = BA

Where A is the area of the square

A = L²

Then, Φ = BL²

Substituting this into the EMF

ε = - dΦ/dt

ε = - d(BL²)/dt

B is constant

ε = - Bd(L²)/dt

ε = -2BL dL/dr

ε = -2 × 0.24 × 0.14 × -0.054

ε = 3.63 × 10^-3 V

ε = 3.63mV
