1. Given that angular momentum is given by L=(r)(p),
the components of the angular momentum can be found to
be:
Lx=ypz-zpy
Ly=zpx-xpz
Lz=xpy-ypx
(a) What are the corresponding angular momentum
operators Lx, Ly, and
Lz?
(b) write communation relations [Lx,
Ly], [Ly, Lz], and [Lz,
Lx]. What does these expressions say about the ability
to measure components of angular momentum simultaneously?
plz explain part B in depth dont do derivation of commutation
relation explain the second part
also do part a

(2.) Consider the orbital angular momentum operator defined in terms of the position and momentum operators as p. Define the angular momentum raising and lowering operators as L± = LztiLy. Use the commutation relations for the position and m omentum operators and find the commutators for: (a.) Lx, Lz and Ly, Lz; (b.) L2, Lz; (c.) L+,L
Classically, orbital angular momentum is given by L = r times p, where p is the linear momentum. To go from classical mechanics to quantum mechanics, replace p by the operator -i nabla (Section 14.6). Show that the quantum mechanical angular momentum operator has Cartesian components L_x = -i (y partial differential/partial differential z - z partial differential/partial differential y L_y = -i(z partial differential/partial differential x - x partial differential/partial differential z L_z = -i (x partial differential/partial differential...

3 Angular Momentum and Spherical Harmonics For a quantum mechanical system that is able to rotate in 3D, one can always define a set of angular momentum operators J. Jy, J., often collectively written as a vector J. They must satisfy the commutation relations (, ] = ihſ, , Îu] = ihſ, J., ſu] = ihỈy. (1) In a more condensed notation, we may write [1,1]] = Žiheikh, i, j= 1,2,3 k=1 Here we've used the Levi-Civita symbol, defined as...

A. Issues [1] In addition to damages for one year's notice period, can a trial judge award significant damages for the mere fact of an employee's dismissal, or for the stigma that that dismissal brings? Or for the employer thereafter competing with the ex-employee for the clients, before the ex-employee has got a new job? B. Basic Facts [2] This is an appeal from 2009 ABQB 591 (CanLII), 473 A.R. 254. [3] Usually a judgment recites facts before law. But...
