B. Assume that there is a system with three possible states, S1 with energy 0 eV, S2 with energy 0.4 eV, and S3 with energy 0.6 eV. If this system is placed in contact with a reservoir whose temperature T is such that kBT = 0.5 eV, rank the probabilities of finding the system in each of the three states S1, S2, S3. If the probability of finding the system in any of the states is zero, state so explicitly....

Consider an electron bound in a three dimensional simple harmonic oscillator potential in the n=1 state. Recall that the e- has spin 1/2 and that the n=1 level of the oscillator has l =1. Thus, there are six states {|n=1, l=1, ml, ms} with ml= +1, 0, -1 and ms = +/- 1/2. - Using these states as a basis find the six states with definite j and mj where J = L +s - What are the energy levels...
