The energy of a particle in the second EXCITED state of a harmonic oscillator potential is
 
  What is the classical angular frequency of oscillation of this particle? (1 eV = 1.60  10-19 J, h = 1.055  10-34 J  s, h = 6.626  10-34 J  s)
  A) 3.31  1015 rad/s
  B) 2.08  1016 rad/s
  C) 4.96  1015 rad/s
  D) 6.95  1015 rad/s

Question 2

An electron is bound in an infinite well (a box) of width 0.10 nm. If the electron is initially in the n = 8 state and falls to the n = 7 state, find the wavelength of the emitted photon.
 
  (c = 3.00  108 m/s, h = 6.626  10-34 J  s, mel = 9.11  10-31 kg)

It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
