A rectangular corral of widths Lx = L and Ly = 2L contains seven electrons. What is the energy of (a) the first excited state, (b) the second excited state, and (c) the third excited state of the system? Assume that the electrons do not interact with one another, and do not neglect spin. State your answers in terms of the given variables, using h and me (electron mass) when needed.

Answer:

See explaination

Step-by-step explanation:

The invariant mass of an electron is approximately9. 109×10−31 kilograms, or5. 489×10−4 atomic mass units. On the basis of Einstein's principle of mass–energy equivalence, this mass corresponds to a rest energy of 0.511 MeV.
