Consider the blackbody radiation emitted at a temperature of 500◦C. (i) Explain why a tungsten wire in an old-fashioned light-bulb starts to glow as it becomes sufficiently hot. (ii) Calculate the percentage pressure increase of the blackbody radiation if the temperature is raised to 550◦C. An electron escapes the hot tungsten wire and is subsequently trapped in a one-dimensional square quantum well. The potential outside the well can be approximated as infinite. (iii) Sketch the probability distribution of the electron...

An ice cube of mass 0.029 kg and temperature -13 ∘C is dropped into a styrofoam cup containing water of mass 0.4 kg and temperature 20 ∘C. Calculate the final temperature in degrees celcius and give your answer to one decimal place. (For simplicity, we ignore here the temperature change of the cup.) The specific heat of ice is 2200 J/kg ∘C and the specific heat of water is 4186 J/kg ∘C. The latent heat of fusion of ice is...

(1) Parasaurolophus was a dinosaur whose distinguishing feature was a hollow crest on the head. The 1.2m long hollow tube in the crest had connections to the nose and throat, leading some investigators to hypothesize that the tube was a resonant chamber for vocalization. (Figure 1) If you model the tube as an open-closed system, what are the first three resonant frequencies? (Use 350 m/s for the speed of sound.) Enter your answers using two significant figures in ascending order...
