Question

Physics

You have set up an experiment where two Stern-Gerlach analyzerssequentially measure spin along the z-axis. The first analyzerallows particles with spin up along z to pass. The second analyzerallows particles with spin down along z to pass. Between the twoanalyzers is a magnetic field aligned along +x. Your experimentsends identical spin-1/2 particles at speed v along the y-axisthrough the analyzers, which are separated by a distance Δy. Whatis the smallest distance Δy that will transmit 50% of the particlespassed through the first analyzer through the second analyzer?
