Time Dilation Example
• Muons are essentially heavy electrons (~200 times heavier)• Muons are typically generated in collisions of cosmic rays in upper
atmosphere and, unlike electrons, decay ( sec)• For a muon incident on Earth with v=0.998c, an observer on Earth would
see what lifetime of the muon?• 2.2 sec?
• t=35 sec • Moving clocks run slow so when an outside observer measures, they see a
longer time than the muon itself sees. (It’s who is the observer that matters not who is actually moving)

More about Muons• They are typically produced in atmosphere about 6 km above surface of Earth and
frequently have velocities that are a substantial fraction of speed of light, v=.998 c for example
• How do they reach the Earth?• Standing on the Earth, we see the muon as moving so it has a longer life (moving clocks
run slow) and we see it living t=35 sec not 2.2 sec , so it can travel 16 times further than 0.66 km that it “thinks” it can travel, or about 10 km, so it can easily cover the 6km necessary to reach the ground.
• But riding on a muon, the trip takes only 2.2 sec, so how do they reach the ground???• Muon-rider sees the ground moving, so the length contracts and is only • so muon can go .66km, but reaches the ground in only .38km

Velocity Addition Example• Lance is riding his bike at 0.8c relative to observer. He throws a ball at
0.7c in the direction of his motion. What speed does the observer see?

Properties of Photoelectric Effect• Existence of photoelectric effect was not a surprise, but the details were
surprising1) Very little time (nanoseconds) between arrival of light pulse and emission
of electron2) Electron energy independent of intensity of light3) At higher frequency get higher energy electrons
Minimum frequency (0) required for photoelectric effect depends on material:

Einstein Explains P.E. Effect• Einstein explained P.E. effect: energy of light not distributed evenly over
classical wave but in discrete regions called quanta and later photons 1) EM wave concentrated in photon so no time delay between incident
photon and p.e. emission 2) All photons of same frequency have same energy E=h, so changing
intensity changes number (I=Nh, where N is rate/area) but not energy3) Higher frequency gives higher energy
• Electrons have maximum KE when all energy of photon given to electron.• is work function or minimum energy required to liberate electron from
material ( =h 0 )

Example of PE for Iron• a) Find given
• b) If p.e.’s are produced by light with a wavelength of 250 nm, what is stopping potential?
• =4.96-4.5 =0.46 eV (is this your final answer?)• NO! it is V0=0.46V (not eV)• x-ray is inverse photo-electric effect, can neglect binding energy, since x-ray is very
energetic

De Broglie• Tiger example• He hits a 46 g golf ball with a velocity of 30 m/s (swoosh) .• Find the ; what do you expect?•
• The wavelength is so small relevant to the dimensions of the golf ball that it has no wave like properties
• What about an electron with ?• This large velocity is still not relativistic so
• Now, the radius of a hydrogen atom (proton + electron) is • Thus, the wave character of the electron is the key to understanding atomic
structure and behavior3/8/2010 3313 Andrew Brandt 11

• What is the kinetic energy of a proton with a 1fm wavelength• Rule of thumb, need relativistic calculation unless
• Is pc = energy? Units are right, but pc .ne. energy
• Since need relativistic calculation
• This implies a relativistic calculation is necessary so can’t use KE=p2/2m

Particle in a Box Still• General expression for non-rel Kinetic Energy:• With no potential energy in this model, and applying constraint on wavelength gives:
• Each permitted E is an energy level, and n is the quantum number• General Conclusions: 1) Trapped particle cannot have arbitrary energy like a free particle—only
specific energies allowed depending on mass and size of box2) Zero energy not allowed! v=0 implies infinite wavelength, which means particle is not trapped
3) h is very small so quantization only noticeable when m and L are also very small

Uncertainty Principlea) For a narrow wave group the position is
accurately measured, but wavelength and thus momentum cannot be precisely determined
b) Conversely for extended wave group it is easy to measure wavelength, but position uncertainty is large
• Werner Heisenberg 1927, it is impossible to know exact momentum and position of an object at the same time

Rutherford Scattering
• The actual result was very different—although most events had small angle scattering, many wide angle scatters were observed
• “It was almost as incredible as if you fired a 15 inch shell at a piece of tissue paper and it came back at you”
• Implied the existence of the nucleus. • We perform similar experiments at
Fermilab and CERN to look for fundamental structure
