An apparatus is used to prepare an atomic beam by heating a collection of atoms to a temperature T and allowing the beam to emer

ge through a hole of diameter d in one side of the oven. The beam then travels through a straight path of length L. Show that the uncertainty principle causes the diameter of the beam at the end of the path to bt larger than d by an amount of order Lh/d Squareroot 3mkT, where m is the mass of an atom.

"if a stream flow measures 12 meters in 60 seconds, what is the stream's average rate of flow?"
Yuliya22 [3333]
Discharge refers to the volume of water flowing down a river or stream within a specific timeframe, typically measured in cubic feet per second or gallons per day. Generally, the discharge of a river is calculated by taking the product of the cross-sectional area of water in the channel and the average velocity of water at that section: discharge = area * velocity. In this instance, the result is 0.2 m/s.
