Determine
(a) For copper, determine the energies at which the probability of electron
occupation is 0.9 and 0.1 at 300 K.
(b) Are these energies symmetric about the Fermi
energy of 7.04 eV?
The probability of a free electron occupying an energy level is given by the Fermi-Dirac statistical distribution.

Acceleration: A racing car accelerates uniformly from rest along a straight track. This track has markers spaced at equal distances along it from the start, as shown in the figure. The car reaches a speed of 140 km/h as it passes marker 2. 
Where on the track was the car when it was traveling at half this speed, that is at 70 km/h?
A. Before marker 1 B. At marker 1 C. Between marker 1 and marker 2
