An Introduction to Thermal Physics 1
Problem 13P Use a Maxwell relation from the previous problem 1 and the third law of thermodynamics to prove that the thermal expansion coefficient ? (defined in Problem 2) must be zero at T = 0. Problem 1: Functions encountered in physics are generally well enough behaved that their mixed partial d

Why is the following situation impossible? In the Bohr model of the hydrogen atom, an electron moves in a circular orbit about a proton. The model states that the electron can exist only in certain allowed orbits around the proton: those whose radius r satisfies r 5 n2 (0.052 9 nm), where n 5 1, 2, 3
