Calculate the ground state energy of a harmonic oscillator with a classical frequency of 3.68  1015 Hz. (1 eV = 1.60  10-19 J, h = 1.055  10-34 J  s, h = 6.626  10-34 J  s)
 
  A) 7.62 eV
  B) 15.2 eV
  C) 11.4 eV
  D) 5.71 eV

Question 2

An 80-eV electron impinges upon a potential barrier 100 eV high and 0.20 nm thick.
 
  What is the probability the electron will tunnel through the barrier? (1 eV = 1.60  10-19 J,
  mproton = 1.67  10-27 kg, h = 1.055  10-34 J  s, h = 6.626  10-34 J  s)
  A) 0.011
  B) 1.1
  C) 0.11
  D) 1.1  10-4
  E) 7.7  10-10

A serious new warning has been established for pregnant women against taking ACE inhibitors during pregnancy. In the study, the risk of major birth defects in children whose mothers took ACE inhibitors during the first trimester was nearly three times higher than in children whose mothers didn't take ACE inhibitors. Physicians can prescribe alternative medications for pregnant women who have symptoms of high blood pressure.
