Answers can be more than one: VII. (12pts) Consider the following potential energy: region 1: U(X) = U. x < 0 region 2: U(X) = 0 0<x</ Uo region 3: U(x) = U. x>L ТЕ where U. >0. We want to consider a particle with energy E such that 0 < E<Uo. There are two possible forms for the wave function that might be used to represent the particle: (x) = 4 sin kyx+ B, coskx v(x) = 4e** +...
Consider the potential energy described in problem 1.14. For low amplitudes, the motion of the object is well described by simple harmonic motion, so that the period is independent of amplitude. However, once the amplitude gets high enough this is no longer true. As the amplitude increase, does the period increase or decrease? Explain your reasoning thoroughly, and assume that the amplitude is always less than pi/B. (You do not need to answer question 1.14) 1.13 In research-level theel pnysles,...
