ENGINEERING PHYSICS - ANSWER 30.3 : (a) When s = 0.5, m = -s = -0.5 and m = -s + 1 = -0.5 + 1 = 0.5. (b)(i)(sin T)(sin T) = 1 - (cos T)(cos T) = 1 - 0.8 x 0.8 = 0.36. Then sin T = 0.6. (ii) Let a = cos T = 0.8, probability of | V > = a x a = 0.8 x 0.8 = 0.64 (more abundant) and b = sin T = 0.6, probability of | H > = b x b = 0.6 x 0.6 = 0.36 (less abundant). (iii) cos T = 0.8, then T = arc cos 0.8.
