A particle freely moving in one dimension x with 0 ≤ x ≤ ∞ is in a state described by the normalized wavefunction ψ(x) = a1/2e–ax/2, where a is a constant. Evaluate the expectation value of the position operator.
A normalized wavefunction for a particle confined between 0 and L in the x direction is ψ = (2/L)1/2 sin(πx/L). Suppose that L = 10.0 nm. Calculate the probability that the particle is (a) between x = 4.95 nm and 5.05 nm, (b) between x = 1.95 nm and 2.05 nm, (c) between x = 9.90 nm and 10.00 nm, (d) between x = 5.00 nm and 10.00 nm.
By considering the integral ∫02π ψ*ml ψml dϕ, where ml≠m'l, confirm that wavefunctions for a particle in a ring with different values of the quantum number ml are mutually orthogonal.
