The force constants for the diatomic molecules CO and HI are 1860 N/m and 320 N/m respectively.

Plot the potential energy curves for these two in a way that highlights their differences (i.e. on a single graph).

Calculate the frequency of motion for both molecules (does this result surprise you?).

Calculate the wavelength of light needed to excite these molecules from their vibrational ground states (v=0) to their vibrational first excited states (v=1).

A spring with force constant k = 175 N/m is attached to the ground. On top of the spring a 1.30 kg metal pan is attached. The combination could be used as a scale, but we are going to do something more interesting. We place a metal ball with mass 0.250 kg on the tray and then the tray is pushed down 0.150 m below its equilibrium point and released from rest (take this as t = 0). a) At...

The spring of a toy gun has a force constant of k = 533 N/m and negligible mass. The spring is compressed the length of the gun barrel, 7.25 cm, and a 0.168-g ball is placed against the compressed spring. A constant frictional force of 5.45-N acts on the ball as it travels through the barrel. The ball leaves the barrel at the moment that it loses contact with the spring. The toy gun is ‘fired’ at a height of...
