If we consider again the linear term (r) in the result of Problem 29, we have a harmonic oscillator. (a) Find an
expression for the frequency of oscillation and evaluate using the correct values of α, r0, and ρ for NaCl. (b) Find the photon wavelength corresponding to the frequency you computed in (a) and compare with the observed absorption wavelength for NaCl of about 61 μm.
Problem 29
Starting with the result of Problem 28, approximate r r0 + δ r (where δ r << r0) and show that
Perform a Taylor series expansion about r = r0, keeping terms up to and including order (δ r)2. Show that
where
and
