The perturbing photon is seemingly unchanged in the process (cf. absorption), and the second photon is created with the same phase, frequency, polarization, and direction of travel as the original.”http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stimulated_emission−2 eV−3 eV−5 eV0 eV 0 eV−7 eV−5 eV−8 eVWhat energy levels for electrons are consistent with this spectrum?Electron Energy levels: 5ev3ev2evPhoton energy0 100 200 300 400 500 600 700 800 nm−5 eV−7 eV−10 eV0 eV5 eV7 eV10 eV0 eV−10 eVABCD5 eV3 eV2 eV0 eVEClicker questionA. n=1B. n=1, n=2, or n=3C. n=3D. n=2 or n=3E.

Any of the statesClicker questionAn atom with the energy levels shown is initially in the ground state. A photon with an energy of 16.0 eV hits the atom. What possible states could the atom be in after the interaction?−2 eV−20 eV−5 eV−10 eV−1 eVn=4n=1n=3n=2n=5For the free electron, whatever energy is absorbed by the atom is deducted from the free electron’s kinetic energy.For photons, the photon is absorbed and so it must transfer allof its energy to the atom. Otherwise energy would not be conserved. Therefore, atoms can only absorb photons with an energy that will exactly move the atom to another energy level.A. 1 eVB. 1 eV, 2 eV, 5 eV, 10 eV C. 10 eVD. 10 eV, 15 eV, 18 eVE. 10 eV, 15 eV, 18 eV, 25 eVClicker questionAn atom with the energy levels shown is initially in the ground state. Which of the following is the most complete list of photon energies that can be absorbed by the atom?−2 eV−20 eV−5 eV−10 eV−1 eVn=4n=1n=3n=2n=5Any photon with an energy ≥ 20 eV will ionize the atom. The electron will escape. Since a free electron can have any energy, any photon with energy ≥ 20 eV can be absorbed by the atom.Photons with energy of 10 eV, 15 eV, 18 eV, 19 eV will cause the electron to jump to the n=2, n=3, n=4, n=5 energy level.20 eV will go into ejecting the electron and the rest will go into the free electron’s kinetic energy. Similar to the photoelectric effect.21. 1/λ= R (1/n′2-1/n2) – from Balmer2. Gravity –Gm1m2/r2force between planets and sun gives orbits.
