Harmonic Oscillator: an Electron Is Confined in a Harmonic Oscillator

Question 44

Multiple Choice

Harmonic oscillator: An electron is confined in a harmonic oscillator potential well. A photon is emitted when the electron undergoes a 3→1 quantum jump. What is the wavelength of the emission if the net force on the electron behaves as though it has a spring constant of Harmonic oscillator: An electron is confined in a harmonic oscillator potential well. A photon is emitted when the electron undergoes a 3→1 quantum jump. What is the wavelength of the emission if the net force on the electron behaves as though it has a spring constant of   (m<sub>el</sub> = 9.11 × 10<sup>-31</sup> kg, c = 3.00 × 10<sup>8</sup> m/s, 1 eV = 1.60 × 10<sup>-19</sup> J, ħ = 1.055 × 10<sup>-34</sup> J ∙ s, h = 6.626 × 10<sup>-34</sup> J ∙ s)  A)  290 nm B)  150 nm C)  190 nm D)  580 nm (mel = 9.11 × 10-31 kg, c = 3.00 × 108 m/s, 1 eV = 1.60 × 10-19 J, ħ = 1.055 × 10-34 J ∙ s, h = 6.626 × 10-34 J ∙ s)
