194 | ELECTRICITY | In the upper half-plane above the $x$-axis, there is a magnetic field with intensity $B$ directed inward, perpendicular to the page. A charged particle with rest mass $m_{0}$ and charge $-q (q>0)$ is shot at high speed into the positive $y$ direction from the origin. It experiences a drag force equal to $q c B$ in magnitude, opposite to the direction of velocity. It is known that the charged particle comes to a stop after turning through an angle $\theta_{0} (\theta_{0} > \frac{\pi}{2})$ in the direction of velocity, and at point $A$ on its trajectory, the velocity is parallel to the $x$-axis ($\theta_{A} = \frac{\pi}{2}$). Now, a smooth track is laid along the path of the charged particle (taking $\theta_{0} = \pi$). Another particle with the same rest mass $m_{0}$ and charge $-q$ is launched from the origin along the inner side of the track with the same initial momentum, experiencing a drag force proportional to velocity, ${\vec{f}}_{0} = -q B {\vec{v}}$. What is the normal force $N_{A}$ exerted on the track by the charged ion when it reaches point $A$? Consider relativistic effects, with the speed of light in vacuum as $c$. | ||
547 | ELECTRICITY | For the electromagnetic cannon model, its structure consists of two parallel rails spaced $\mathit{l}$ apart, with one end connected to a power supply for energy, and the other end connected to a metal rod that can slide freely on the rails to form a circuit. In the situation where the circuit length $x$ is much larger than the spacing $\mathit{l}$ (but ignoring the delay in circuit signal propagation caused by the length), it can be assumed that the self-inductance coefficient $L$ of the circuit is linearly related to $x$, i.e., $L = A x + B$. $A$ and $B$ are two constants. The current flowing through the metal rod is $I$, and the permeability of vacuum is $\mu_{0}$. In fact, for different electromagnetic cannon configurations, the value of the Ampere force on the metal rod is actually different. Assume the rail is a thin-walled cylinder with a radius $r \ll \mathit{l}$. Under direct current conditions, it can be assumed that the current is uniformly distributed over the surface of the cylinder. Make an appropriate approximation and calculate the specific expression of the Ampere force on the metal rod. | ||
647 | MECHANICS | This problem discusses the motion and forces on a particle in a rapidly oscillating field. First, we discuss the one-dimensional theory in a rapidly oscillating field. Let $q$ denote the coordinate of the particle. For a particle in a potential field $V_{0}(q)$ with mass $m$, if there is a rapidly oscillating force $f( \boldsymbol{q},t)$ acting on it (the angular frequency $ \omega$ of $f$ is very high), its equation of motion is: $$ m{ \ddot{q}}=F_{0}=-{ \frac{ \mathrm{d}V_{0}}{ \mathrm{d}q}}(q)+f(q,t) $$ The core of the theory is to divide the actual motion into fast motion (high-frequency oscillation) and slow motion (average motion): fast motion is denoted as $x(t)$, and slow motion is denoted as $X$. Due to the high frequency, the response of $x$ is very small, that is $x \ll X$. Expanding the above equation: $$ m \ddot{X}+m \ddot{x}=- \frac{ \mathrm{d}V_{0}}{ \mathrm{d}q} \Big \vert_{X}- \frac{ \mathrm{d}^{2}V_{0}}{ \mathrm{d}q^{2}} \Big \vert_{X} \cdot x+f(X,t)+ \frac{ \partial f}{ \partial x} \Big \vert_{X,t} \cdot x $$ First, solve for fast motion: $ \begin{array}{r}{m \ddot{x}=- \frac{ \mathrm{d}^{2}V_{0}}{ \mathrm{d}q^{2}} \Big \vert_{X} \cdot x+f(X,t)} \end{array}$, which is evidently a forced oscillation. Considering the high-frequency approximation, that is $ \begin{array}{r} { m \omega^{2} \gg \frac{ \mathrm{d}^{2}V_{0}}{ \mathrm{d}q^{2}} \bigg|_{X}} \end{array}$, we obtain $$ x=-{ \frac{1}{m \omega^{2}}}f(X,t) $$ Thus, in fact, when studying rapidly oscillating forces, the second term on the right side of the equation does not have any practical effect. Next, solve for the slow motion. Substitute the result of the fast motion into the actual dynamical equation to obtain the slow motion. Extending this situation to three dimensions, if $ abla \times f=0$, the effective potential $F_{ \mathrm{eff}}=- abla V_{ \mathrm{eff}}$ can be written down. Please provide the expression of $V_{ \mathrm{eff}}$ in terms of some average value of $f$. | ||
549 | MECHANICS | Please solve the following physics problem, and enclose the final answer in \boxed{}: Consider a regular dodecahedron with side length $a$ in an environment without a gravitational field. At the center of the dodecahedron, there is a mass $m$. Each vertex of the dodecahedron is connected to the mass $m$ by a spring. Each spring has a natural length $l$ ($l$ is equal to the radius of the circumscribed sphere of the dodecahedron), and all springs have the same spring constant $k$. The mass of the springs is negligible. Find the eigenfrequency of small oscillations of the mass $m$. | ||
267 | THERMODYNAMICS | We divide medium molecules into two categories: one is non-polar molecules, such as carbon tetrachloride; the other is polar molecules. For polar molecules, the centers of positive and negative charges are separated, forming an intrinsic dipole moment $\vec{p}_{i}$, such as in a water molecule. Under the influence of an external field, the positive and negative charge centers of non-polar molecules shift, forming a dipole. This mechanism is called induction polarization. For polar molecules, the intrinsic dipole moment rotates to a stable equilibrium position under the influence of the external field. This process is called orientation polarization. In this problem, we discuss the orientation polarization of the medium.
Assuming the dipole moment of a water molecule is $p_{w}$ and considering a system with a number density of water vapor molecules $n$, the interaction energy between the water dipole moment $p_{w}$ and the applied electric field is assumed to follow the Boltzmann distribution. That is, the isotropic distribution probability is multiplied by the factor $e^{-\frac{E_{p}}{k T}}$, where $E_{p}$ is the interaction energy between the dipole and the external field, $k$ is the Boltzmann constant, and the system temperature is assumed to be $T$. Derive the polarization vector $P$ of the system under the condition of a weak external field $E$. | ||
350 | ADVANCED | A homogeneous semicircular ring with a radius $R$, bending stiffness $EI$, and mass $m$ is placed with its opening facing upwards on a rigid horizontal surface in a state of rest. Assume all deformations are small, and the bending stiffness $EI$ is defined as: $M=EI(k-k_0)$, where $k$ is the curvature at a point, $k_0$ is the original curvature, and $M$ is the applied external moment. What is the height of its center of mass above the ground? The answer should be retained to the first-order term of $\frac{R^2 m g}{EI}$. | ||
756 | ELECTRICITY | Unlike the motion of charged particles in an electromagnetic field, the motion of neutral atoms in an electromagnetic field has unique characteristics. By modeling the neutral atom as a homogeneous sphere with a relative dielectric constant of $ \varepsilon_{r}$ and a radius of $R$, we consider the motion laws of the atom in a specific situation. In a spatial rectangular coordinate system, there is a uniform magnetic field $B$ in the $+z$ direction, where if $B < 0$, it means the magnetic field direction is actually along $-z$. A uniformly charged insulating thin wire with a linear charge density of $+ \lambda$ is fixed on the $z$ axis. Now a neutral atom is placed at $x = r_{0} \gg R, y = z = 0$ and released with an initial velocity $v_{0}$ in the $+y$ direction. Ignoring the retardation effect and relativistic effect, and assuming the atom has a uniform mass distribution with a density of $ \rho$. If the atom moves in a circular motion, try to find the value of $v_{0}$. Given that the vacuum permittivity is $ \varepsilon_{0}$. | ||
196 | MECHANICS | In the graduate entrance exam of the University of Wisconsin's Department of Physics in 1975, there appeared a seemingly simple rigid ball collision problem: Two rigid spheres of the same material—where the radius of the lower sphere is $2a$, and the radius of the upper sphere is $a$—fall from a height of $h$ (measured from the center of the larger sphere) above the ground. Assume that the centers of both spheres always remain on the same vertical line and that all collisions are elastic. Under these conditions, what is the maximum height the center of the upper sphere can reach? (Hint: Assume the larger sphere first collides with the ground and rebounds before colliding with the smaller sphere.)
It is now known that the rigid sphere collision model described in this problem satisfies chaotic conditions. Moreover, for this chaotic problem, as long as basic physical laws (such as energy conservation and rigidity assumptions) are satisfied, all states can occur—it is merely a matter of how much time it takes. Determine the highest position $h_{max}$ the smaller upper sphere could possibly reach after a very long period of time following its release. | ||
340 | ELECTRICITY | Consider two infinitely long parallel cylindrical metal conductors located in an isotropic linear dielectric medium characterized by a dielectric constant \( \epsilon \), magnetic permeability \( \mu \), and electrical conductivity \( \sigma \). The radius of each conductor is \( r \), and their separation is \( d \), where \( d \gg r \). The capacitance per unit length between the two conductors is denoted as \( C_{l} \), the inductance per unit length as \( L_{l} \), and the electrical conductance per unit length as \( G_{l} \) (none of which are known quantities).
Now, consider constructing an infinitely long one-dimensional circuit network: the lower conductor serves as the ground line, while the upper conductor contains an infinite number of inductors \( L \). The right end of the \( n \)-th inductor and the left end of the \( (n+1) \)-th inductor define the \( n \)-th node.Each node is connected to the ground line through a capacitor \( C \) and conductance \( G \). Resistance and conductance are connected in parallel.Let the electric potential at the \( n \)-th node be \( V_{n} \).
Using Kirchhoff's equations, a recurrence relation for \( V_{n} \) and its time derivative can be derived. Let \( C = C_{l}dx \), \( L = L_{l}dx \), and \( G = G_{l}dx \); by continuous approximation of the recurrence relation, the governing partial differential equation for \( V(x,t) \) can be obtained.
We hypothesize a solution for the decaying electric potential wave:
$$
V(x,t) = V_{0}\cos(kx - \omega t + \varphi)e^{-px}
$$
Substituting this solution into the partial differential equation, \( k(\omega) \) and \( p(\omega) \) can be determined.
The group velocity is defined as:
$$
v_{g} \equiv \frac{d\omega}{dk}
$$
Solve for the group velocity \( v_{g}(\omega) \) of the decaying electric potential wave. | ||
717 | OPTICS | Let the refractive index of the core material of an optical fiber Bragg grating be $n_1 = 1.51$. In the fiber, a one-dimensional optical structure is constructed by periodically changing the refractive index of the core material, with the changed material's refractive index being $n_2 = 1.55$. This structure is made up of alternating layers of two refractive indices: the layers have refractive indices $n_2$ and $n_1$, and thicknesses $d_2$ and $d_1$ respectively, forming a periodic refractive index distribution with a total of N layers. Light is perpendicularly incident on this structure and, after passing through the alternating layers, undergoes reflection and transmission at each layer interface. In each period, the odd layers are medium layers with refractive index $n_1$ and thickness $d_1$, the even layers are medium layers with refractive index $n_2$ and thickness $d_2$, with the arrangement: $$n_1,\, n_2,\, n_1,\, n_2,\, \dots,\, n_1,\, n_2$$ To simplify the analysis, assume that absorption loss in the medium is neglected during the design process, and only consider single reflections of light at each layer interface. When light is perpendicularly incident from a medium with refractive index $n_1$ to a medium with refractive index $n_2$, it gets partially reflected and partially transmitted at the interface. Specifically, if the incident light's electric field strength is $E_0$, then: The electric field strength of the reflected light is: $E_r = \frac{n_1 - n_2}{n_1 + n_2} E_0$ The electric field strength of the transmitted light is: $E_t = \frac{2n_1}{n_1 + n_2} E_0$ Assuming that the wavelength of the incident light in vacuum is $\lambda = 1.06 \mu m$, if the device's amplitude reflectivity is required to reach $8\%$, what is the minimum total number of layers N? Hint: Use the coherent superposition of light without needing to use the Bragg reflector reflectivity approximation. | ||
726 | MECHANICS | A cannon located on the ground can fire shells in any direction at a fixed rate $u$. The horizontal firing direction is the x-axis, and the vertical direction to the ground is the y-axis. The boundary of the safe zone is defined as: if the target is within this boundary, the shell may hit the target; if it is outside this boundary, it cannot be hit regardless of how it is fired. Find the equation of the boundary of the safe zone in the air, written in the form $y = y(x)$. The gravitational acceleration $g$ is known.

149 | THERMODYNAMICS | A vertical adiabatic container with a height of $2H$ and a volume of $2V$ is sealed at the bottom by an adiabatic piston. Initially, the container is divided into two equal-volume sections by an adiabatic partition of mass $m$. The partition rests on a support, and the contact point is sealed to prevent any leakage. Each section initially contains helium gas at pressure $p$ and temperature $T$. Using a force, the piston is slowly pushed upward. Consider the following question:
Find the temperature $T_{1}$ of the gas in the upper gas chamber when the piston reaches the support.
Hint: During the process, the partition will leak for a certain period. | ||
492 | ELECTRICITY | Solve the following problem using the principle of virtual work:
Two identical superconducting rings have a radius of \( a \), each carrying a current \( I \) and with self-inductance \( L \). These rings are coaxially and parallelly positioned with their centers separated by a distance \( D \). The magnetic field generated by the current in each ring within the other ring can be considered as a magnetic dipole field. Assume a virtual displacement \( \delta \) occurs in the distance between the rings, i.e., \( D \to D + \delta \). Based on the conservation of magnetic flux in superconducting coils, please derive the interaction force between the two rings from the perspective of energy. The vacuum permeability is given as \( \mu_0 \). | ||
235 | THERMODYNAMICS | The molar mass of a certain ideal gas is $\mu$, and it flows from left to right through a long straight adiabatic horizontal duct with smooth inner walls. The cross-sectional area of the duct is $S$. The internal energy of 1 mole of this gas at an absolute temperature of $T$ is ${\frac{5}{2}}R T$, where $R$ is the universal gas constant.
A heating device is fixed and placed in the middle of a duct to heat the gas with a constant power. Assume that the resistance of the heating device to the gas flow can be neglected. After the gas flow stabilizes, although the gas in the vicinity of the heating device has nonuniform states, it gradually becomes uniform as the distance from the heating device increases. In the uniform steady-flow region to the left of the heating device, the pressure of the gas is $p_{0}$, the temperature is $T_{0}$, and the flow velocity to the right is $V_{\mathrm{0}}$. Given that the pressure of the gas in the uniform steady-flow region to the right of the heating device is $p_{1}$, determine the temperature $T_{1}$ of the gas in that region. | ||
359 | MECHANICS | The rotational inertia of a planar object relative to its center of mass is given by $I=\rho^2 M$. On a smooth horizontal surface, there is a thin plate of arbitrary shape with mass $M$, and point $O$ is the center of mass of the plate, with a radius of gyration $\rho_0$. There is a beetle $A$ on the plate with mass $m$. A polar coordinate system is established with the center of mass of the plate as the origin, and this coordinate system is fixed relative to the plate. In this reference frame, the motion laws of the beetle $A$ relative to the plate are known, given by $\rho(t)$ and $\varphi(t)$. Using the conservation of linear momentum and angular momentum, determine the absolute angular velocity $\Omega$ of the plate at any given time.

532 | ELECTRICITY | Equilibrium Problem of Charged Plates in a Capacitor
The bottom area of a cylindrical insulating adiabatic container is \( A \), and its height is \( 2L \). The container stores gas with an initial pressure of \( p_{0} \), temperature \( T_{0} \), and constant-volume molar heat capacity \( C_{V} \). There are 3 identical metal plates, each with the same area as the bottom area of the cylindrical container. Two of them are grounded and fixed at the two bottom surfaces inside the container. The third metal plate is parallel to the bottom surface and positioned in the middle of the container, dividing the container and the gas inside it equally left and right. Now, an electric charge of \( Q \) is rapidly introduced to the middle metal plate. It is assumed that the middle plate is neither leaking electricity nor gas, and can freely move along the axis of the container. The relative permittivity of the gas is approximately 1. \( L \) is sufficiently small, and the conductor plates conduct heat well enough that the gas on both sides always reaches thermal equilibrium. The ideal gas constant is denoted as \( R \).The dielectric constant in a vacuum is \( \varepsilon_{0} \). Let the mass of the middle plate be \( m \). If \( Q > 2\sqrt{\varepsilon_{0}p_{0}}A = Q_{c} \), find the period of small oscillations when the plate is given a small disturbance at the stable equilibrium position. | ||
414 | MECHANICS | When the cup is tilted at a certain angle, if a lateral impulse is applied, it will start to spin in place. Now, let's establish a model to study the situation where the cup spins stably in place.

257 | THERMODYNAMICS | There is a vertically placed, sealed, adiabatic cylindrical container with a cross-sectional area of \( A \). Inside, there is a thermally insulated piston of mass \( m \). The thickness of the piston is negligible compared to the length of the cylinder. Initially, the piston is fixed at the center of the cylinder, dividing it into two chambers of equal length \( l \). Each chamber contains \( n \) moles of monatomic ideal gas at an initial temperature of \( T_{0} \).
In the following problem, you may assume that the friction between the piston and the cylinder wall is negligible, and \( l \) is much larger than the displacement of the piston (\( l \gg z \)).
Although the friction between the piston and the cylinder wall is small, after a long time it will eventually bring the piston to rest. Furthermore, due to the motion of the piston, the temperatures of the two chambers eventually become equal, and all the heat dissipated due to friction is converted into the internal energy of the gas. Determine the final temperature \( T_{f} \) of the gas inside the cylinder when the piston comes to rest. It is assumed that the heat capacities of the cylinder walls and the piston are negligible. | ||
27 | MECHANICS | On an incline, a snow rod made of snow rolls down the slope purely, absorbing the thin layer of snow on the slope into itself, causing the snow rod to become increasingly larger. We assume the snow rod always maintains a cylindrical shape, and its initial volume is very small and can be neglected.

643 | OPTICS | In this problem, we study a simple \"gas-fueled rocket.\" The main body of the rocket is a plastic bottle, which can take off after adding a certain amount of fuel gas and igniting it. It is known that the external atmospheric pressure is $P_{0}$, and the initial pressure of the gas in the bottle is $P_{0}$, with a temperature of $T_{0}$. The proportion of the molar amount of fuel gas is $\alpha$, and the rest is air. Alcohol is chosen as the fuel, with the reaction equation in air as: $C_{2}H_{5}OH(g) + 3O_{2}(g) \rightarrow 3H_{2}O(g) + 2CO_{2}(g)$. Assume that the air contains only $N_{2}$ and $O_{2}$, all gases are considered as ideal gases, and none of the vibrational degrees of freedom are excited. It is known that under conditions of pressure $P_{0}$ and temperature $T_{0}$, the reaction heat is $-\lambda$ (enthalpy change for $1\mathrm{mol}$ of ethanol reacting under isothermal and isobaric conditions). Ignore heat loss, assume the reaction is complete, and that there is air remaining, with the gas volume remaining constant throughout. Find the pressure $P_{1}$ of the gas inside the bottle after the gas has completely reacted upon ignition. | ||

The lower surface is horizontal, but due to manufacturing processes, the upper metallic plate is not strictly parallel to the lower surface. The straight edge of the upper surface is parallel to the lower surface, and the angle between the two planes is $ \alpha R \ll d$. Because the angle is very small, we can approximately consider that in the top view, both metallic plates are still strictly semicircular. There is an axis $c$ at the center of the upper metallic plate, perpendicular to the upper surface, around which the upper surface can freely rotate. In the top view, the angular displacement of the diameters of the circular discs on the upper and lower surfaces of the capacitor is $ \pmb{ \theta}$.

512 | MECHANICS | Collision is one of the simplest mechanical interactions between objects, representing a process of energy and momentum exchange. The chain reaction caused by one-dimensional collision cascades provides a simplified model for a series of natural phenomena dominated by continuous collisions. When studying such systems, the physical quantities we're interested in are the proportion of energy or momentum transmitted through the collision cascade and its dependence on the restitution coefficient and the mass ratio of the colliding objects. Between the initial ball of mass $M$ (fixed) and the terminal ball of mass $m$ (fixed), $n$ balls ($n \gg 1$) are placed (with masses $m_{i}$, $i = 1, 2, ..., n$, tunable). Only the first collision between neighboring balls is considered. All collisions are inelastic, characterized by a restitution coefficient $e$ (very close to 1).
Recently, Ricardo and Lee demonstrated that when the mass distribution of the cascading ball chain ensures that the mass of each ball $m_{i}$ is the geometric mean of the masses of its two neighboring balls, $\sqrt{m_{i-1}m_{i+1}}$, the transmission efficiency of kinetic energy and momentum between the initial and terminal balls is maximized. For an $n$-ball system, please write down the maximum transmission efficiency of kinetic energy between the initial and terminal balls $r_{K n}$; | ||
776 | ELECTRICITY | For conductors, reaching electrostatic equilibrium from a non-equilibrium state takes a certain amount of time, but generally, this time is very short, so this process is often neglected in conventional electrostatic analyses. However, many effects generated by this process are still not negligible. Below, we will make a simple analysis, considering that the charge movement speed is much less than the speed of light. There is a dielectric sphere with a radius of $R$, dielectric constant $ \epsilon$, and conductivity $ \alpha$ in a vacuum. At time $t=0$, a uniform electric field $E_0$ is suddenly applied. We assume that the dielectric sphere first reaches electrostatic equilibrium in a non-conductive sense and then begins to leak charge. Determine how much time passes during the leakage process before the current density at all locations is reduced to half of its initial value. | ||
479 | ELECTRICITY | In an infinitely large isotropic linear dielectric medium, there exists a uniform external electric field $\vec{E}_{0}$. The vacuum permittivity is known to be $\varepsilon_{0}$.
The dielectric is a solid with a relative permittivity $\varepsilon_{r}$. Within the dielectric, a spherical cavity with radius $R$ is carved out, and the cavity can be considered a vacuum.

288 | THERMODYNAMICS | For electromagnetic radiation within a cavity, the method of studying gases can be used for investigation, and we refer to this as a photon gas. It is known that the internal energy of a photon gas with a volume $V$ and temperature $T$ can be expressed as $U = a V T^{4}$, where $a$ is a known constant. A thermal radiation field consists of radiation with various wavelengths. When a blackbody radiation cavity undergoes adiabatic expansion, not only does the radiation temperature change, but the radiation wavelength also changes correspondingly due to the Doppler effect. Therefore, there must be a certain relationship between the change in radiation wavelength and the change in temperature. Derive the relationship between the radiation wavelength and the temperature within a spherical blackbody radiation cavity undergoing adiabatic expansion. It can be assumed that the expansion rate of the cavity is much less than the speed of light. | ||

287 | THERMODYNAMICS | When uncharged cells are in close proximity, fluctuations on the surface of the cell membrane can create repulsive forces between the cells. As a simplification, one can ignore the bending of the cell membrane's surface and treat it as a two-dimensional plane. The cell membrane can be approximately considered as an elastic membrane with a surface tension coefficient of $\alpha$ and a mass per unit area of $\sigma$. It is known that the cell membrane is in a thermodynamic equilibrium environment at temperature $T$, and the Boltzmann constant is $k_{B}$.
Assume there are two interacting cell membrane samples, each a square membrane of size $L \times L$, with the membranes parallel and at a distance $D (D \ll L)$. To describe the surface fluctuations of the cell membrane, use a coordinate system $(x, y)$ with the origin $O$ at the vertex of one cell membrane. Let $h(x, y)$ represent the surface fluctuation of the sample.
If $D \to +\infty$, the cell membrane under thermal equilibrium should undergo free oscillations. The surface vibration mode of the cell membrane should be a two-dimensional standing wave concerning the edges, with the following form:
$$
h(x,y)=h_{0}(t)\sin\left(k_{x}x\right)\sin\left(k_{y}y\right)
$$
Investigate when $k_{x}, k_{y}>0$, the minimum value mode of $|k_{x}|, |k_{y}|$.
The fluctuations between the two cell membranes must not intrude into each other, and the fluctuation of the lower cell membrane can be considered as $h \leq D/2$. The following identity is known:

788 | THERMODYNAMICS | The mechanical properties of the rubber membrane are similar to the surface layer in thermodynamics. In the first approximation, the tension inside the rubber membrane can be described by the surface tension coefficient. A layer of rubber membrane is equivalent to a surface layer (the refractive index of the membrane is the same as that of water, and the membrane is extremely thin). Tension formula: \[ F = \sigma l \] A hollow cylinder, with height \(L \), radius \(R \), has its two ends covered with a transparent rubber membrane with the same surface tension coefficient, and contains an ideal gas inside at pressure \(p_0 \). The cylinder is submerged in a pool to a depth \(H \) (assume \(L \ll H \), and the liquid-induced pressure on the upper and lower membranes is the same).

We establish a cylindrical coordinate system $(r, \theta, z)$, with the cylinder's axis coinciding with the $z$-axis, and appropriately choose the origin so that the cylinder is symmetric with respect to the $xOy$ plane. Thus, the polarization vector is given by $\vec{P} = \frac{\rho_0}{2} r \hat{r}$.

where $\mathrm{P}$ is the probability density of finding a particle at position $(x, y, z)$ with velocity $(v_{x}, v_{y}, v_{z})$. Statistical physics indicates that if there exist additive conserved quantities in the single-particle motion of electrons or protons, such as energy $E$ and momentum $p$, then the thermal equilibrium distribution function $f_{\alpha}$ is:

Consider infinitely many ideal semi-convex lenses, each placed equidistantly with an angular spacing of $\alpha$ between them. Each semi-convex lens is infinitesimally thin, allowing them to be arranged without mutual interference. These lenses are halved along their optical centers, and all optical centers are overlapped at the origin $O$ without crossing one another. Although there are infinitely many semi-convex lenses, $\alpha$ is an infinitesimal quantity, so the total angular range remains finite and does not extend infinitely in rotation. Finally, the focal length of each convex lens is $f$, which is an infinitely large quantity. However, the quantity $f\alpha = r_{0}$ is a finite, non-zero characteristic length in the limit. Below, all answers to the subsequent questions will be expressed in terms of $r_{0}$.
To solve the problem of determining the position and direction of a light ray perpendicular to the first lens upon exiting the last lens, we first perform an equivalence transformation: in fact, by tracing the trajectory of the light ray as it propagates between the lenses, it can be found that this problem is completely equivalent to the refraction of a light ray inside a spherical medium with a refractive index that varies with radius. Determine the refractive index distribution $n(r)$ of the sphere.

However, within the Sun, we need to consider that the gas density decreases with height due to gravity. We simulate the Sun as an isothermal atmospheric model, where the density $\rho$ decreases exponentially with height $z$ due to gravity. Let the mass of the atmospheric particles be $m$, the gravitational acceleration at the Sun's surface be $g$ (neglecting its variation with height $z$), Boltzmann constant be $k_B$, and the temperature of the solar atmosphere be $T$. Its adiabatic index (ratio of specific heat at constant pressure to specific heat at constant volume) is $\gamma$.
When sound waves propagate vertically within the atmosphere, particles will undergo small vertical displacements. Let $u(z,t)$ be the vertical displacement of gas particles at time $t$, where $z$ is their equilibrium position. Next, we study a sinusoidal wave with angular frequency $\omega$. When a wave propagates vertically upwards at a constant speed in the direction of decreasing density $\rho(z)$, we expect the wave's energy density $w=\rho \omega^2 u^2$ to remain unchanged. Thus, we can set $u(z,t)=\frac{f(z)}{\sqrt{\rho(z)}} \exp(-i\omega t)$, where $f(z)$ is an unknown function to be determined. When the frequency of sound waves at the Sun's surface is lower than the critical frequency $\omega_c$, they will be trapped inside the Sun and unable to propagate vertically upwards.

200 | OPTICS | This question explores time coherence from the perspective of randomly emitted wave packets: a light source always emits waves in the form of one wave packet after another. Within the same wave packet, there is a regular variation in the phase between two points, whereas the phase relationship between different wave packets is completely random. At this point (at a given location), time coherence can be understood as
$$
\gamma(t_{0})=\left|\left\langle\frac{E^{*}(t+t_{0})E(t)}{\left|E(t+t_{0})E(t)\right|}\right\rangle\right|
$$
where $<>$ denotes averaging or expectation over $t$. Coherence can be seen as a measure of the correlation between the phase of the electric field at time $t+t_{0}$ and at time $t$. Thus, the electric field magnitude is not discussed here. In this expression, the quantity being averaged is the electric field $E$ divided by its own magnitude. As a result, only the phase information at different times is retained, yielding a dimensionless constant. Additionally, note that averaging is performed first, followed by taking the modulus.
If there is a light source that emits random wave packets of different lengths, and the number of wave packets of different lengths is distributed according to a probability density, the number of wave packets with a length distributed between $\tau$ and $\tau+\mathrm{d}\tau$ is
$$\mathrm{d}n=\frac{1}{\tau_{0}}e^{-\frac{\tau}{\tau_{0}}}d\tau,$$
where $\tau_{0}$ is a known constant. Determine the time coherence of these randomly emitted wave packets. | ||
434 | MODERN | Action integrals are not only of great significance in quantum theory; they also appear as adiabatic invariants in classical physics. Consider the following problem: A negative charge $-q$ initially moves in a circular orbit around a stationary positive charge $Q$, with angular momentum, radius, radial momentum, and angle denoted as $L$, $r$, $p_{r}$, and $\theta$ respectively. Now, for some reason, the charge of the positive charge $Q$ changes very slowly to $Q^{\prime} = \lambda Q$. This change only affects the electrostatic force on the negative charge without causing other effects. Then, theoretical mechanics can prove that $J_{1} = \oint p_{r}\mathrm{d}r$ and $J_{2} = \oint L\mathrm{d}\theta = \int_{0}^{2\pi}L\mathrm{d}\theta$ both remain unchanged over a long period of time, meaning they have the same value in the initial and final states, which is called an adiabatic invariant.

214 | MODERN | The uncertainty principle in quantum mechanics refers to the fact that two non-commuting quantities cannot be simultaneously measured with perfect accuracy. Suppose we observe two mechanical operators $A$ and $B$, which satisfy the commutation relation:
$$
[A,B]=A B-B A=C
$$
Then, when we simultaneously measure $A$ and $B$, their measurement uncertainties satisfy:
$$
\langle(\Delta A)^{2}\rangle\langle(\Delta B)^{2}\rangle\geq\frac{1}{4}\langle-i C\rangle^{2}

In classical mechanics, the ground state energy of a harmonic oscillator is zero. However, in quantum mechanics, due to the influence of the uncertainty principle, the harmonic oscillator’s ground state energy is not zero but rather $\begin{array}{r}{\cdot\frac{1}{2}\hbar\omega=\frac{1}{2}h\nu.}\end{array}$ The ground state energy of a harmonic oscillator, $\cdot{\frac{1}{2}}\hbar\omega$, is also called the vacuum zero-point energy. Consider the electromagnetic field can also be quantized as infinite harmonic modes. The electric field strength of the standing wave field between two parallel conducting plates can be decomposed as:
$$
\overrightarrow{E}_{(z,t)}=\sum_{j}\widehat{\epsilon}_{j}A_{j}q_{j}(t)\sin{(k_{j}z)}
$$
Substituting each harmonic oscillator into the equation satisfied by electromagnetic waves in a vacuum:
$$
\nabla^{2}\vec{E}-\frac{1}{c^{2}}\frac{\partial^{2}\vec{E}}{\partial t^{2}}=0
$$
where $c$ is the speed of light, and $\nabla^{2}=\frac{\partial^{2}}{\partial x^{2}}+\frac{\partial^{2}}{\partial y^{2}}+\frac{\partial^{2}}{\partial z^{2}}$ is the scalar operator. We obtain:
$$
\ddot{q}_{j}+c^{2}k_{j}^{2}q_{j}=0
$$
which is the harmonic oscillator equation, where $k_{j}$ represents the wavevector of the propagating electromagnetic wave. Therefore, the vacuum also possesses the ground state energy of the electromagnetic field (for each harmonic oscillator):
$$
E_{0}=\frac{1}{2}h\nu
$$
This energy is referred to as the vacuum zero-point energy. As a result, even in the absence of photons, there exists a Casimir force between two parallel conducting plates in a vacuum.
Next, we use a simplified model to theoretically calculate the magnitude of the force arising from the Casimir effect. Assume our universe is a one-dimensional ring of length $L$, and the two conducting plates are placed parallel to each other at a distance $x$. In this system, a series of electromagnetic wave modes satisfying the boundary conditions contribute to the vacuum zero-point energy of the system. In reality, metallic plates cannot reflect arbitrarily high-frequency radiation: the highest energy modes will escape. To account for this effect, an exponential term is introduced to truncate the high-energy modes. The truncation position is arbitrary, so we expect it will not affect any measurable quantities. Assume that when summing over different electromagnetic wave modes to obtain the total energy, a Boltzmann factor is introduced, i.e.,
$$
E=\sum_{j}e_{j}^{-\frac{E_{j}}{\Lambda}}E_{j}
$$
where $E_{j}$ is the zero-point energy for each mode, and $\Lambda$ is a constant.

489 | MODERN | The Bohr model holds historical significance as the first semi-classical quantum model of the hydrogen atom. It explained the challenges of classical electrodynamics regarding electron radiation and atomic stable states, as well as the results of spectroscopic observations at the time. Due to the limitations of quantum theory during its early development, it underwent modifications by Sommerfeld and others, eventually leading directly to the establishment of the Schrödinger equation by Schrödinger and others, which serves as the fundamental equation of quantum mechanics.
In the Bohr model, the principal quantum number $n$ simultaneously determines the energy and angular momentum of the electron state, which is actually incorrect. Through observation of hydrogen atoms in electric fields and magnetic fields, we point out that degenerate states under the same principal quantum number $n$ with different angular quantum numbers $l$, magnetic quantum numbers $m$, and even spin quantum numbers $s$ will experience energy level splitting. Specifically, some states' energy levels increase, while others decrease, and spectroscopic observations can reveal distinct spectral lines resulting from electronic level transitions between different states. The Stark effect is a typical effect when the hydrogen atom couples with an electric field. This problem attempts to estimate of the magnitude of energy level splitting due to the Stark effect using a semi-classical approach.
Consider the slow evolution of the electron's orbital in space under the influence of a weak uniform electric field $\vec{E}$. First, consider a simpler situation where at time $t=0$, the normal vector $\vec{n}$ of the plane of the electron's orbit and the electric field strength $\vec{E}$, along with the axis pointing from the nucleus to the pericenter of the orbit (the $x$-axis), are all situated in the $xOz$ plane, with an angle $\theta$ between the latter two. Use the perturbation method to prove that the magnitude of the angular momentum of the electron's orbit does not change over time, and the orbit merely precesses around the direction of the electric field $\vec{E}$ (that is, rotates around the axis). Determine this angular velocity $\Omega$. Given the orbital energy $-U$, eccentricity $e$, electron mass $m$, and the magnitude of charge for both the atomic nucleus and electron as $q$.
Hint: The so-called perturbation method refers to calculating the instantaneous derivative of the dynamical conserved quantity of the original system under the action of the newly added perturbing force at each moment. Substitute the position and velocity of the periodic motion of the original system into this derivative and calculate the periodic average. Finally, this averaged quantity is interpreted as the time derivative of a dynamical conserved quantity along the instantaneous orbit.

In the ground frame, the initial velocity of $A$ is $v=\beta c$. Let $\beta_{0}=\sqrt{1-\frac{4}{\alpha^{2}}}$, and it is known that $\beta_{0}<\beta<\frac{\beta_{0}}{\sqrt{1-\beta_{0}^{2}}}$. Find the maximum value of the angle between the velocity directions of $B$ and $C$ in the ground frame. | ||
433 | ELECTRICITY | When a metal conductor is placed into a plasma, changes in the electron and ion number densities and potential will occur near the surface. There is a presheath layer where the electron and ion number densities are equal, and a sheath layer where they are unequal, creating a current between them. By measuring the $U-I$ characteristic curve, certain characteristics of the plasma can be obtained, known as a plasma probe.
The problem is simplified to a one-dimensional problem, with the one-dimensional coordinate $x$. For $x>0$, it's the conductor, and for $x<0$, it's the plasma. From right to left, there are the metal conductor, the sheath, and the presheath.
At $x \rightarrow \infty$, the potential is set as the reference potential $V \approx 0$, and the electron and ion number densities are $n_0$.
Assume the ion mass is $m$, and the kinetic energy at the top of the presheath moving towards the conductor is $W_0$. It is assumed that ions do not experience collisions during their motion.
Assume the potential at the interface between the presheath and sheath is 0, the electric field intensity is $E_d$, and the potential at the conductor's surface is $V_f < 0$. It is assumed that the electron number density follows the Boltzmann distribution, $n_e = n_0 \exp\left(\frac{eV(x)}{kT}\right)$, where $T$ is the plasma temperature.
The electron charge is known as $e$, and the vacuum permittivity is $\epsilon_0$.
Assume the surface area is $A$. If a small alternating voltage is superimposed on the conductor on the basis of the potential $V_f$, an alternating current will be generated between them. Find the dynamic capacitance $C$ of the conductor. (The dynamic capacitance is defined as $C = \frac{dQ}{dV}$, which is the derivative of charge with respect to potential.) | ||
351 | MECHANICS | The acceleration due to gravity $g$ is directed vertically downward. A light rope of length $2c$ symmetrically passes through a smooth fixed hole $O$ and suspends a rectangular thin plate with length $2a$ and width $2b$. The suspension points are the two vertices on one edge of length $2a$. The plate has a mass $m$ uniformly distributed over its surface. Initially, the plate is in a state of symmetric suspended equilibrium. Suitable choices of $a,b,c$ ensure that the plate is in stable equilibrium.
We restrict disturbances and motion to occur only within a plane parallel to the plate, so the number of possible vibration modes is $2$. Let $a=3l$, $b=4l$, and $c=5l$.
Please output the larger angular frequency, requiring an exact solution of the larger angular frequency rather than a numerical solution, using $g$ and $l$ for expression. |
