Answer the following statement(s) true (T) or false (F)
1. Suppose we have a vial of quantum systems that could either be boxes or harmonic oscillators. When we excite these systems and look at their emission spectra, we see two visible lines, whose wavelengths we measure. From this data, we can determine which kind of system we have. 2. Suppose we measure the wavelengths of the absorption lines of a vibrating diatomic molecule involving atoms whose masses we know. From this data, we can deduce the effective spring constant ks of the bond holding these atoms together.
