(a) Find鈱﹔鈱猘nd鈱﹔虏鈱猣or an electron in the ground state of hydrogen. Express your answers in terms of the Bohr radius.
(b) Find鈱﹛鈱猘nd for an electron in the ground state of hydrogen.
Hint: This requires no new integration鈥攏ote that ,and exploit the symmetry of the ground state.
(c) Find鈱﹛虏鈱猧n the state . Hint: this state is not symmetrical in x, y, z. Use
Two particles of mass mare attached to the ends of a massless rigid rod of length a. The system is free to rotate in three dimensions about the center (but the center point itself is fixed).
(a) Show that the allowed energies of this rigid rotor are
, for n=0,1,2,...
Hint: First express the (classical) energy in terms of the total angular momentum.
(b) What are the normalized Eigen functions for this system? What is the degeneracy of theenergy level?
(a) A particle of spin1and a particle of spin 2 are at rest in a configuration such that the total spin is 3, and its z component is . If you measured the z component of the angular momentum of the spin-2particle, what values might you get, and what is the probability of each one?
(b) An electron with spin down is in the stateof the hydrogen atom. If you could measure the total angular momentum squared of the electron alone (not including the proton spin), what values might you get, and what is the probability of each?
The raising and lowering operators change the value of m by one unit:
(4.120).
Where are constant. Question: What is , if the Eigen functions are to be normalized? Hint: First show thatis the Hermitian conjugate of (Since are observables, you may assume they are Hermitian鈥ut prove it if you like); then use Equation 4.112.
Use separation of variables in Cartesian coordinates to solve infinite cubical well
if x,y,z are all between 0 to a;
Otherwise
a) Find the stationary states and the corresponding energies
b) Call the distinct energies in the order of increasing energy. Findlocalid="1658127758806" determine their degeneracies (that is, the number of different states that share the same energy). Comment: In one dimension degenerate bound states do not occur but in three dimensions they are very common.
c) What is the degeneracy of E14 and why is this case interesting?
