1. Suppose we didn't actually know the wave functions for a particle in a box. Reasonable guesses for the ground- and first-excited-state wave functions might be functions of the form 1 = a y (1 - y) 02 = by (y-c)(y-1), where y = (x/L), L is the length of the box, and a, b, and care constants. (a) These functions have quite a number of features that make them sensible guesses. Sketch both functions and list these special features....
