Finding inveriance size, equilibrium and fluctuations
So I answered 1 and 2, got: 1. ##\vec(r)(\theta,\phi)=l(sin \theta cos \phi, sin \theta sin \phi, -cos \theta)## 2. ##L=\frac{ml^2 (\dot{\theta}^2+\dot{\phi}^2 sin^2 \theta)}{2}+mglcos \theta## 3. a ##mlsin \theta -mgsin \theta =l^2 \ddot{\theta}## , b. ##ml^2 \ddot{\phi}=0## 4. I know...- Gbox

Prove: angular momentum is preserved
Do you mean ##-\frac{\partial H}{\partial \phi}=m(x\dot{y}-y\dot{x})## Where ##x=rsin\theta cos\phi, y=rsin\theta sin\phi##?- Gbox

What are energy values and how do they relate to eigenvectors in quantum states?
Not it is just that my background is in math (done linear algebra 1+2) so I am checking each step form math (and now physics) point of view- Gbox

What are energy values and how do they relate to eigenvectors in quantum states?
Thanks! So mathematically, are we doing a basis change? as how else can we arrive to ##\left| v_1 \right>= \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \left| x \right>+\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\left| y \right>## And ## \left| v_2 \right>= -\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\left| x \right>+\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \left| y \right>## Using the...- Gbox

What are energy values and how do they relate to eigenvectors in quantum states?
Thanks, I do not understand the physics the led to the two equations. maybe I will go a step back ##\left| x \right>## and ##\left| y \right>## are the state of the system after a measure is done? The eigenvectors of ##A## are the state of the system before the mesure? So now we are...- Gbox

What are energy values and how do they relate to eigenvectors in quantum states?
Summary: Finding state at t=0, energy values and more So this is my first question in quantum mechanics (please understand). 1. So we have a system, and to describe the state of the system we have to measure, A is an hermitian matrix, that each physical measurable quantity has. To find the...- Gbox
