Document Summary

Exam format: 2 hours, 2 essays, one on equality and another on liberty. 15: in canada, if a claimant wants to make a claim they need to prove that they have differentiated from others, sexual orientation is considered an analogous ground, immutability, a problem with immutability is physical appearance. There is a personal cost to someone who wants to change their religion. One one hand, it has a great impact on our sense of self. She notes that actually all the categories we are talking about, are relational. They are de ned in relation to something else. The rst of these problems is that the choice of categories, of these grounds and not these ones re ect what is dominant and what is not. The problem is that the list of having been around for a while, begins to appear neutral and permanent. Race when listed a prohibited ground means not white sex means not male.

This is my Physics project, can you explain the Physics behindit?

3. Fashion a cardboard tube covered at each end with

metal foil. Punch a hole in each end with a pencil,
one about 3 or so millimeters in diameter and the
other twice as big. Place your eye to the small hole
and look through the tube at the colors of things
against the black background of the tube. You'll see
colors that look very different from how they appear

against ordinary backgrounds.

This is from Conceptual Physics, Hewitt 10th edition. Myoriginal thought was that since there is no light, the object willnot reflect anything appearing black, but the last sentence saysotherwise.

Thank you!

A quantum dot can be thought of as essentially a man-made atom.Consider a 2-dimensional dot (effectively an electron in a squareinfinite well), with a single ground state (with energy Eo = 0.04eV), and a double degenerate first excited state (with energy E1 =0.1eV); the relevant energy levels are shoen below.

ï»¿

1. At T=300K what is the probability that a dot will be excited?

0.02

0.08

0.16

0.4

0.67

2. What is the probability that the dot will be in the groundstate for very high T, i.e., as T approaches infinity?

1/3

1/2

3. For what temperature will about half of the dots be in theirground state, and half in one of the first excited states ?

T = 100K

T = 1000K

There is no temperature at which this canoccur.

4. What is the entropy of a collection of N such dots at verylow temperatures (T-->0) ?

S=0

S=Nk ln(2)

S=Nk ln(3)
