7. The kinetic energy, k, of a particle of mass m is given below, where the velocity, v, of the particle is constrained to [-1,1] Suppose that a particular particle is known to have mass m - 2 and that the probability that its velocity is in [a,b] is given below. Let K denote the random variable that characterizes the particle's kinetic energy. What is the probability that the kinetic energy is greater than one half? That is, find P[K...

Assume that a free particle of mass m is in state with the following wavefunction: b(,t)= Ae' (2020 - 1944). Use the Born interpretation and the Uncertainty Principle to determine what is known about the position, momentum and energy of the particle in this state. Briefly explain your reasoning and give specific values, where possible.
