Packet 8: Tossup 7

A constant times this function of n pi x over L gives wave functions (15[1])that solve the 1D (-5[1])particle in a box. (15[2]-5[1])This function (15[1])is set equal to 1.22 lambda over D (15[1])then approximated (15[1])to derive the Rayleigh criterion. (15[1])This function appears in solutions to the heat equation for rods where (15[1])the boundary temperatures are fixed at 0. (15[1])The Davisson-Germer experiment is explained by a law modeling (*) X-ray diffraction (10[1])in which 2d times (10[1])this function equals (10[1])n lambda. This function (10[1])multiplies (10[1])index (10[1])of refraction on both sides of (-5[1])Snell’s (10[3])law. (10[7])This function is used (-5[1])to find the (10[1])component (10[1])of gravity parallel to an inclined plane. (10[1])For 10 points, (10[1])what function equals opposite over hypotenuse? (10[2])■END■ (10[7]0[1])
