Please answer 8.5 (a) and (b) 

resonance is observable.
8.5 (a)
Apply the Onsager's quantization condition (8.39) to the orbits of free electron levels
and show that it leads directly to the free electron levels (8.26) if y = 1/2.
(b)
Derive an expression for the degeneracy of Landau levels in the case of a two-
dimensional free electron gas. Show that the degeneracy is equal to the number of
zero-field free electron levels with a given k., and with k, and k, within a planar region
of area AS given by (8.29).
8.6 An electron in sodium at the Fermi level moves initially in the xy-plane. Calculate the radius
of its cyclotron orbit when a magnetic field of 1 T is applied. What is the ratio of the orbit
area in real space to that in k-space?
