Energy and Amplitude of Oscillation An atom in a crystal lattice can be regarded as having a mass of 2.0E-26 kg attched to a spring. The frequency of this oscillator is 1.0E13 Hz. What is the amplitude of oscillation if the energy of oscillation is one energy quantum? I know E=nhv, here n=1 so the energy of oscillation=> E=1h(1.0E13 Hz)= 6.626E-21 J How does this relate to amplitude? (Energy is proportional to A^2?) How does the mass of the atom affect this?
