- a) Chapter 6, Problem 24 (page 230). b) Chapter 6, Problem 25 (page
230).
- Chapter 6, Problem 32 (page 231).
- Chapter 7, Problem 6 (page 263).
- Chapter 7, Problem 13 (page 263).
- 20 points extra credit: On Thursday February 25
we discussed in class how to use Mathematica to solve the Schrödinger
equation for a particle in a finite well. However, the notebook
I used (which is available from the Physics 237 website) is not complete
and does not predict the energy eigenvalues of the solutions.
a) For V0 = 12 and a = 1 there are four eigenvalues. Update
the notebook to include the calculation of these four energies.
b) Update the Mathematice notebook to create fours graphs that
show the eigenfunctions as function of position.
In order to receive the extra credit, you should create a Mathematica
Notebook, showing on the relevant calculations and graphs, and submit
it electronically to Prof. Wolfs at wolfs@pas.rochester.edu. The
name of the file should be hw06p06XXYYYYYYYY.nb where XX are your initials
and YYYYYYYY is your student id number. The subject of the email
should start with hw06p06XXYYYYYYYY.
