Aparticle of mass m is placed in a one-dimensional box of length l. the box is so small that the particle’s motion is relativistic, so that e p2/2m is not valid. (a) derive an expression for the energy levels of the particle using the relativistic energy–momentum relation and the quantization of momentum that derives from connement. (b) if the particle is an electron in a box of length l 1.00 1012 m, nd its lowest possible kinetic energy. by what percent is the nonrelativistic formula for the energy in error?
If a car is traveling on the highway at a constant velocity, the force that pushes the car forward must be a. equal to the weight of the car. b. less than the force of friction exerted upon the car. c. equal to the force of friction exerted upon the car. d. greater than the weight of the car.
