7.

A given spring stretches 104 m when a force of 20N pulls on it. A 2-kg block attached to it on a frictionless surface is pulled to the right 0.2 m and released.
(a) What is frequency of oscillation of the block?
(b) What are the velocity and acceleration when x = 0.12m, on the block's first passing this point?

8.

A proton is moving with a velocity v = (3 × 105i + 7 × 105k)m/sec in a region wher there is a magnetic field B = 0.4 j T. Find the force experienced by the proton.

9.

In neutron spectroscopy a beam of mono-energetic neutrons is obtained by reflecting reactor neutrons from a beryllium crystal. If the separation between the atomic planes of the beryllium crystal is 0.732 Å, what is the angle between the incident neutron beam and the atomic planes that will yield a monochromatic beam of neutrons of wavelength 0.1 A?

10.

(a) How many atomic states are there in hydrogen with n=3?
(b) How are they distributed among the sub shells? Label each state with the appropriate set of quantum numbers n, l, ml, ms.
(c) Show that the number of states in a shell, that is, states having the same n, is given by 2n2. (Hint: 1+2+3+.......+n=n(n+1)/2).
