3. A particle is in a 1D box (infinite potential well) of dimension, a, situated symmetrically about the origin of the x-axis. A measurement of energy is made and the particle is found to have the ground state energy: 2ma The walls of the box are expanded instantaneously, doubling the well width symmetrically about the origin, leaving the particle in the same state. a) Sketch the initial potential well making it symmetric about x - 0 (note this is different...
The energy levels for a particle in a 1-D box of dimension (L) is provided by the following expression: n h2 E, 2mL2 where m is the mass of the particle, h-bar = h/2 andn is the quantum number. Evaluate the energy associated with the first level (n 1) for an argon atom in a 10 A 1-D box. Select one: a. 8.27 x 10-25 kJ/mol b. 4.98 x 10 1 kJ/mol c. 8.27 x 1028 kJ/mol d. 4.98 x...
2.2 Two-level system A particle in the box is described by the following wavefunction 1 1 V(x, t) + V2 V2 = Um(x)e -i(Em/h) In other words, this state is a superposition of two modes: n-th, and m-th. A superposition that involves only two modes (not necessarily particle in the box modes, but any two modes) is called a "two-level system”. A more modern name for such a superposition is a "qubit”. a) Come up with an expression for the...

Particle in a box Figure 1 is an illustration of the concept of a particle in a box. V=00 V=00 V=0 Figure 1. A representation of a particle in a box, where the potential energy, V, is zero between x = 0 and x = L and rises abruptly to infinity at the walls.

A 1kg particle is in a region where the potential energy can be represented by the function U(x) = x 2 − 5, where using x in meters will give you U in J. The particle is released from rest at x = 2.0m. (a)In which direction does it move? Why? (b)What is its velocity when it has moved 2m? (c)Where does the particle first come to rest after you release it? (d)Describe the long-term motion of the particle.
For the particle-in-a-box of length a, assume that instead of a sine function, the ground state wavefunction is an upside-down parabola at the center of the box, b/2. What is the total energy of the trial system and what is the wavefunction of the system. Now compare your result to the particle-in-a-box where the potential energy inside the box is zero, what is the difference of percentage of both systems? For the particle-in-a-box of length a, assume that instead of...
