Convince yourself that function exp(-x2/2) is an eigenfunction of the operator (1/2)(-d2/dx2 x2). Compute the corresponding eigenvalue. (We will see in class that this operator is the Hamiltonian for the harmonic oscillator, if one sets the mass, frequency, and the Planck's constant at 1.)

The pressure increases by 1.0 x 104 n/m^2 for every meter of depth beneath the surface of the ocean. at what depth does the volume of a pyrex (bulk modulus 2.6 x 1010n/m^2) glass cube, 9.8 x 10^−2m on an edge at the ocean's surface, decrease by 7.5 x 10−10m^3? explain the formula beyond this point: p=1.0x10^4, b=2.6x10^10, l=9.8x10^−2, delta v=7.5x10^−10. at some point l needs to be cubed. why p is divided by delta v?

Wavelength,frequency,and energy are related.what happens to a wave as it’s wavelength gets shorter?

2kg of refrigerant 134a undergoes a polytropic process in a piston-cylinder assembly from an initial state of saturated vapor at 2 bar to a final state of 12 bar, 80 degree c. a)determine the work for the process in kj. b)sketch the process on a p-v diagram.
