# The wavefunction of a particle is subjected to a sperically symmetric potential V(r) is given byb(x)= (xy 32)f(r),(1)where f is some function of the radius r alone.a) Is an eigenfunction of L2? If so, what is its l-value? If not, what are the possible values of / wemay obtain when L2 is measured.b) What are the probabilities for the particle to be found in various m states?c) Suppose it is known that b is an energy eigenfunction with energy eigenvalue E. Indicate how wemay find V(r).

Step 1

The relation between the Cartesian and spherical coordinates is given as,

Step 2

Here θ is the polar angle and φ is the azimuthal angle.

Use the spherical polar coordinates to rewrite the wave function ψ in terms of r, θ, φ as,

Step 3

Here Ylm represents spherical harmonics and Rnl (r) represents the radial part of the wave function.

a)

The operator...
