Question
The "particle-in-a-box" problem consists of a particle of mass, m, contained
within a one-dimensional well potential of length, L, for which the potential
energy is zero for 0 < x< L, and infinite elsewhere. The allowed
wavefunctions and energy levels of such a particle are given by the
expressions:
h? n?n?
