II.6. The wave function of a particle in a 1D rigid box (infinite potential well) of length L is: v, 8, 1) = sin(x)e-En/5). n = 1,2,3... What is the probability density of finding the particle in its 2nd excited state?
In solving the particle in a one dimensional infinite depth box problem (0k x < a) we started with the function following is a true statement? (a) The value of k is found by requiring that the solution be normalized. (b) The function wx) is not an eigenfunciton of the operator d2/dx2 (c) It is necessary that this function equals a when x=0 (ie, Ψ(0) = a). (d) The boundary condition at x = 0 is used to show that...
A NON stationary state A particle of mass m is in an infinite square well potential of width L, as in McIntyre's section 5.4. Suppose we have an initial state vector lv(t -0) results from Mclntrye without re-deriving them, and you may use a computer for your math as long as you include your code in your solution A(3E1) 4iE2)). You may use E. (4 pts) Use a computer to plot this probability density at 4 times: t 0, t2...
When we discussed the particle in a box model, we defined our box to be from x=0 to x=a. Re- examine this problem, defining the box to be from -a to +a. Recall that the general solution for a particle in a region of V=0 is ψ = A sin kx + B cos kx. Apply the appropriate boundary conditions, figure out what k is (in terms of a), and normalize your solution (i.e. evaluate A and B). .
Consider a particle encountering a barrier with potential U = U.>0 between x = -a and x = a with incoming energy E > U. a) Write the symbolic wave functions before and after passing through the barrier (i.e., for x<-a and x>a; regions I and III).
