Electron orbiting in a circular orbit can be considered to from
a small current loop, which magnetic dipole moment depends on
particles angular momentum with respect to the center of the orbit.
External magnet field density B = 2.0T.

where h = Planck constant. In external magnetic field
electrons potential depend on L:s orientation in respect to to
field.
a) Calculate eletctrons magnetic dipole moment.
b) If all the orientations were quantum mechanically
allowed, which orientation in respect to external field would
potential energy be at maximum and minimum. Calculate the
difference between max and min energy.
L = h/21
