    Particle in a Box: Calculating P from 0 to 0.2 nm

    I got the answer now, but by changing my calculator to radians when calculating sin(2n∏x/L). Am I suppose to use radian instead of degrees?

    Particle in a Box: Calculating P from 0 to 0.2 nm

    I still don't understand. I may have wrote something wrong. The part that you highlighted should be: (L/n∏)

    Probability of finding a particle in a box

    Homework Statement Consider ψ (x) for a particle in a box: ψn(x) = (2/L)1/2sin(n∏x/L) Calculate the probability of finding the particle in the middle half of the box (i.e., L/4 ≤ x ≤ 3L/4). Also, using this solution show that as ''n'' goes to infinity you get the classical solution of...

    Calculating Absorbance of Iron (III) Solution at 580nm for 2.50-cm Cell

    Not sure if correct but here's what I did to find the concentration. 5.49 ppm = 5.49 micrograms/mL = 0.00549 grams/L 0.00549 grams/L /(55.845 grams/mole) = 0.000106 M 0.000106 M * 5 mL / 50 mL = 0.0000106 M EDIT : Also I just realized that the molar absorptivity of FeSCN is not given in the...

    Evaluating Line Integral: ∫(x+2y)dx+(x^2)dy

    Honestly, I have no idea what to do, but here what I did. From (0,0) to (2,1) r(t) = (1-t)<0,0> + t<2,1> r(t) = <2t,t> x=2t y=t I found that the integral is from 0 to 1. dx/dt = 2 dy/dt = 1 ∫(x+2y)dx+(x^2)dy Then I set x as 2t and y as t into the equation...

    Change of Variable in multiple Integrals

    So I set 1 = 3u -2v and 2 = u+v. Then, I do 2-v=u and substitute u into the first equation? I get (1,1)
