Does anyone know exactly what this special project that has been brought up a few times during lecture is? I know it involves computing orbitals etc. but that's about it. JeffBy 27 Nov 2007 - 17:17
For anyone who's interested, you can find the complete set of lecture notes here:

I'm having troubles finding out what the kinetic and potential operators for spherical coordinates are. Any help? ChristinaSmith 14 Oct 2007 - 23:41

Is answer to Problem 19.18 a typo in the back of the book? If it wasn't I would be off by a multiple of ten. DavidWann 11 Oct 2007 - 22:20
There is a typo on problem 24a in Chapter 2 (or 13).

sin(m*pi*y/a) should be sin(m*pi*y/b) 		NathanD 04 Sep 2007 - 17:21
This is a very common thing in science journals and reports. What they're saying is that they multiplied by 10^19 to make things look better. NathanD 27 Aug 2007 - 22:02
You are correct. For the 12/1.11 problem, the multiplicative factor for the energy should be 10^(-19) J ThanhTruong 27 Aug 2007 - 17:56

In problem 12/1.11 (depending on which book you use) there appears to be a mistake in the table reporting energy values for the kinetic energy of the ejected electrons from potassium. The book reports that the energy is in 10^19 Joules, which is a heck of a lot of energy for an electron. Further, when graphing using these values, one obtains a value for h which is off by a factor of 10. The value should be reported as "10^-19 Kinetic Energy (J)". Using this value appears to give an h value that is very close to the actual value of h. JeffBy 27 Aug 2007 - 17:01
