Model a table as a box of width 1.35 m. A sphere of mass 168 g slides on the table such that it has zero rotational kinetic energy. i) calculate the energy difference for the n = 1 and n = 3 states (treat the sphere as a particle in a box). ii) Do you feel that quantum mechanical effects are significant for the sphere on the table?
