Problem with integration I finally managed to find out what the heck it was. There is a problem with the integration of the function. Try using http://integrals.wolfram.com/index.jsp. Very useful mathematical program.

There might be a problem with the last statement of E_1 state is 0 at x=0 . Why do you think that is so?

Where did you find this? Send me a message.

Forget it. I am so swarmed with work right now I just can't be adamant on solving every question that comes my way.

You know what. It is nm. I got an answer where the wavelength is 4.06*10^-7m. Anyone wants to double-check my answer?

Given the wavelength of lightwave in a vacuum is 540mm, what will it be in water, where n = 1.33? To solve this problem, it seems like I would need to find a relationship of the frequency of light to the wavelength and that is easily obtained from the equation lambda = c/nu and the frequency...

I guess the equations will have to wait. I am working on my Optics homework and won't be done for a while. It is encouraging that people are finding this thread interesting enough to read it.

I am going to be posting the equations really soon. Say, is anyone here studying Quantum Mechanics? I am in my introductory course.

Excellent. I think that I would find this place to be very helpful indeed. By the way, what software do you guys use to post equations on the board? I am thinking of using Maple 10? Or do you guys have a standard? ;p By the way, I appreciate the help. The homework has been handed in but I...

Hi! I have been trying to figure out this problem for hours now. If I want two bullets discharging from the same rifle to collide in midair with just a change in the angle of elevation. Can you show the time interval needed? I think that this question is interesting enough to be posted...
