You are lying on a beach, your eyes 20cm above the sand. Just as the Sun sets, fully disappearing over the horizon, you immediately jump up, your eyes now 150 cm above the sand, and you can again just see the top of the Sun. If you count the number of seconds until the Sun fully disappears again, you can estimate the Earth’s radius. But for this Problem, use the known radius of the Earth to calculate the time t.

An electron is trapped at a defect in a crystal. the defect may be modeled as a one-dimensional, rigid-walled box of width 1.00 nm. (a) sketch the wavefunctions and probability densities for the n 1 and n 2 states. (b) for the n 1 state, nd the probability of nding the electron between x1 0.15 nm and x2 0.35 nm, where x 0 is the left side of the box. (c) repeat (b) for the n 2 state. (d) calculate the energies in electron volts of the n 1 and n 2 states
