PhysicsBootcampAddendumP14Part2(Quantum Physics: Particle in a Box).avi

This video is part of the Physics Bootcamp series. It covers the fourteenth problem of the addendum test for this course. (Part 2) Draw the Schroedinger Wave Probability function for a particle in a closed box with length L for the 1st 4 states. Assume m = 3.2 x 10-29 kg and L = .50 micrometers. a) What is the probability that the particle is in the middle of the box in the 2nd state (n = 2)? b) What are the most probable positions of the particle in the n = 4 state? c) If the energy of the ground state equals 10 MeV, what is the energy of the 3rd state? d) Calculate the actual energy of the particle in the 3rd state.
