Sorry, I actually figured out the problem with that part of my question. I still don't understand however why it is that there will always be a bound state in the 1D case of a (finite) well, whereas there will not always be one with the 3D case?

I have a particle in a spherical well with the conditions that V(r) = 0 is r < a, and V(r) = V0 if r ≥ a. In this problem we are only considering the l=0 in the radial equation. After solving this I found that in the region 0<r<a, u(r)=Bsin(kr) (k=√2mE/hbar), and in the other region...

Hi all, I'm going into my third year of university and up until this point I have been studying a little of everything in physics(my degree is a bachelors in Physics), for my third year however we have to select a stream of physics to focus on and I am stuck between Theoretical and Applied...

I have a choice between studying physics and biomedical science(where I would specialize in biochemistry) and I cannot decide which I should do. I've always had a passion for physics but upon actually studying I've found it very difficult. It's still interesting to me but I'm not sure if this is...

Would the physics not provide me with a stronger background though? As in for the nanotechnology parts?

I have a choice between Physics and Biomedical science

We do that as part of my physics course however it only involves medical imaging, as in building new/better imagining systems, or operating them in hospitals, which I have zero interest in.

Yes I know that I myself as an individual probably won't find a cure, but I would like being part of a team that does.

I'm currently in my second year of studying Physics in University(undergraduate) but I don't know if I should continue on this path. I'll start from the beginning... Ever since I was little I've always had a fascination with physics, I loved looking at the stars, read countless books on...
