An Electron in an Infinite Potential Well (A Box)makes a Transition

Question 28

Short Answer

An electron in an infinite potential well (a box)makes a transition from the n = 3 level to the ground state and in so doing emits a photon of wavelength 20.9 nm.(c = 3.00 × 108 m/s, An electron in an infinite potential well (a box)makes a transition from the n = 3 level to the ground state and in so doing emits a photon of wavelength 20.9 nm.(c = 3.00 × 10<sup>8</sup> m/s,   ,m<sub>el</sub> = 9.11 × 10<sup>-31</sup> kg) (a)What is the width of this well? (b)What wavelength photon would be required to excite the electron from its original level to the next higher one? ,mel = 9.11 × 10-31 kg)
