A hydrogen atom can be in the 1S state, whose energy we'll call 0, the 2S state, or any of 3 2P states. The 2S and 2P states have energies of 10.2 eV. There are other states with higher energy but we'll ignore them for simplicity. The 2P states have distinctive optical properties, so we're interested in how many are present even when it's a small fraction of the total. 1) What fraction of the H is in 2P states at T=5900 K, a typical Sun surface temperature?

Search coils and credit cards. one practical way to measure magnetic field strength uses a small, closely wound coil called a search coil. the coil is initially held with its plane perpendicular to a magnetic field. the coil is then either quickly rotated a quarter-turn about a diameter or quickly pulled out of the field. (a) derive the equation relating the total charge q that flows through a search coil to the magnetic-field magnitude b. the search coil has n turns, each with area a, and the flux through the coil is decreased from its initial maximum value to zero in a time ∆t. the resistance of the coil is r, and the total charge is q = i∆t, where i is the average current induced by the change in flux. (b) in a credit card reader, the magnetic strip on the back of a credit card is rapidly “swiped” past a coil within the reader. explain, using the same ideas that underlie the operation of a search coil, how the reader can decode the information stored in the pattern of magnetization on the strip. (c) is it necessary that the credit card be “swiped” through the reader at exactly the right speed? why or why not?
