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)
