Question

Transcribed Image Text:Could an electron's spin come from actually spinning around its axis? Let's use classical physics to evaluate how
reasonable this idea is.
a. If you treat an electron as a classical rigid sphere with radius 1.60 × 10-17 m and uniform density, what
h? Recall that the
angular speed w is necessary to produce a spin angular momentum of magnitude √2/+h?
moment of inertia of a solid uniform sphere of radius R and mass M is I = ½-MR². Express your answer
in radians to 3 significant figures. (Answer: 9.79 × 1029 rad)
