- An Atom has zero orbital angular momentum ad a spin quantum number 1/2. It is found to be in the |↑z> state. A measurement is performed on the value of its angular momentum in a direction at an angle Θ (theta) to the z-axis. Show that the probability of its angular momentum being parallel to this new axis is cos2(Θ/2).arrow_forward(a) Show that the total number of atomic states (including different spin states) in a shell of principal quantum number n is 2n2.
