The ground-state wave function for a particle confined to a one-dimensional box of length L is Ψ=(2/L)^1/2 Sin(πx/L). Suppose th

e box is 100 nm long.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) in the right half of the box (e) in the central third of the box.

Respuesta:

(a) 4.98x10⁻⁵

(b) 7.89x10⁻⁶

(c) 1.89x10⁻⁴

(d) 0.5

(e) 2.9x10⁻²

Explicación paso a paso:

La probabilidad (P) de encontrar la partícula está dada por:

P=\int_{x_{1}}^{x_{2}}(\Psi\cdot \Psi) dx = \int_{x_{1}}^{x_{2}} ((2/L)^{1/2} Sin(\pi x/L))^{2}dx  

P = \int_{x_{1}}^{x_{2}} (2/L) Sin^{2}(\pi x/L)dx     (1)

La solución de la integral de la ecuación (1) es:

P=\frac{2}{L} [\frac{X}{2} - \frac{Sin(2\pi x/L)}{4\pi /L}]|_{x_{1}}^{x_{2}}  

(a) La probabilidad de encontrar la partícula entre x = 4.95 nm y 5.05 nm es:

P=\frac{2}{100} [\frac{X}{2} - \frac{Sin(2\pi x/100)}{4\pi /100}]|_{4.95}^{5.05} = 4.98 \cdot 10^{-5}    

(b) La probabilidad de encontrar la partícula entre x = 1.95 nm y 2.05 nm es:

P=\frac{2}{100} [\frac{X}{2} - \frac{Sin(2\pi x/100)}{4\pi /100}]|_{1.95}^{2.05} = 7.89 \cdot 10^{-6}  

(c) La probabilidad de encontrar la partícula entre x = 9.90 nm y 10.00 nm es:

P=\frac{2}{100} [\frac{X}{2} - \frac{Sin(2\pi x/100)}{4\pi /100}]|_{9.90}^{10.00} = 1.89 \cdot 10^{-4}    

(d) La probabilidad de encontrar la partícula en la mitad derecha de la caja, es decir, entre x = 0 nm y 50 nm es:

P=\frac{2}{100} [\frac{X}{2} - \frac{Sin(2\pi x/100)}{4\pi /100}]|_{0}^{50.00} = 0.5

(e) La probabilidad de encontrar la partícula en el tercio central de la caja, es decir, entre x = 0 nm y 100/6 nm es:

P=\frac{2}{100} [\frac{X}{2} - \frac{Sin(2\pi x/100)}{4\pi /100}]|_{0}^{16.7} = 2.9 \cdot 10^{-2}

Espero que te ayude.

In a GP if T3 = 18 and T6 = 486 Find:- T10
lawyer [9240]

Answer:

The 10th term in the geometric progression is 29.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: In a geometric series, [T3 = 18] and [T6 = 486].

To find: The term [T10]?

Solution:

A geometric sequence takes the form [a, ar, ar^2,...]

Where, a represents the first term, and r denotes the common ratio.

The nth term is expressed as [Tn = a * r^(n-1)]

From the information provided: [T3 = a * r^2 = 18]

And [T6 = a * r^5 = 486]

By dividing the second equation by the first:

[(a * r^5) / (a * r^2)] = 486 / 18

[r^3 = 27]

Taking the cube root provides: r = 3.

Inserting r into one of the equations allows us to solve for a.

Substituting r gives: [T3 = a * r^2 = 18]

Thus, the first term is a = 2, and the common ratio is r = 3.

The 10th term in the geometric progression is computed as:

[T10 = a * r^(10-1)]

[Thus, T10 = 29.]

Two hundred randomly selected people were asked to state their primary source for news about current events: (1) Television, (2)
lawyer [9240]

Answer:

Explanation:

Hello!

You possess a sample involving 200 participants, who were surveyed regarding their main source of news, categorized into (1) Television, (2) Radio, (3) Internet, and (4) Other.

Your goal is to evaluate whether the proportions in this sample align with the established frequencies of 10%, 30%, 50%, and 10% respectively.

The suitable statistical method to assess if the sample matches the known or historical distribution is the Chi-Square goodness of fit test. In this test, the null hypothesis represents the model or distribution under examination. In this scenario, you need to articulate the proportions for each category:

H₀: P(1)= 0.10; P(2)= 0.30; P(3)= 0.50; P(4)= 0.10

Wishing you a SUPER day!

Segment JK has a length of 4.5 units. If segment LM has end points of L (3,1) and M (-1,4), how much longer than segment JK is s
Leona [9271]
Distance formula:
d= \sqrt{ (x_{2}-x_{1}) ^{2}+( y_{2} - y_{1} )^{2}}\\ d= \sqrt{ (3-(-1)) ^{2}+(1 - 4 )^{2}}\\ d= \sqrt{ (4) ^{2}+(-3)^{2}}\\ d=\sqrt{16+9}\\ d=\sqrt{25}\\ d=5

5 units-4.5 units=0.5 units

Segment LM exceeds segment JK by 0.5 units.

Inessa [9000]

Answer:

La conclusión sobre p utilizando una desigualdad de valor absoluto es

0.325 < p < 0.375

Explicación paso a paso:

Según el enunciado, nos informan que

La proporción de la muestra es \r p = 0.35

El margen de error es E = 0.025

El intervalo de confianza se representa matemáticamente como

\r p -E < p < \r p +E

=> 0.35 - 0.025 < p < 0.35 + 0.025

=> 0.325 < p < 0.375
