Problem 7.3. Consider a system consisting of a single hydrogen atom/ion, which
has two possible states: unoccupied (i.e., no electron present) and occupied (i.e.,
one electron present, in the ground state). Calculate the ratio of the probabilities

What does your result for the potential energy U(x=+L) become in the limit a→0?
A (nonconstant) harmonic function takes its maximum value and its minimum value on the boundary of any region (not at an interior point). Thus, for example, the electrostatic potential V in a region containing no free charge takes on its largest and smallest values on the boundary of the region; similarly, the temperature T of a body containing no sources of heat takes its largest and smallest values on the surface of the body. Prove this fact (for two-dimensional regions) as follows: Suppose that it is claimed that u(x, y) takes its maximum value at some interior point a; this means that, at all points of some small disk about a, the values of u(x, y) are nolarger than at a. Show by Problem 36 that such a claim leads to a contradiction (unless u = const.). Similarly prove that u(x, y) cannot take its minimum value at an interior point.
Suppose that the out-of-plane distortion of an AB3 planar molecule is described by a potential energy V= V0 (1- ebh^4 ), where h is the distance by which the central atom A is displaced.

Sketch the form of the ground-state wavefunction.
