Why is the ground state always symmetric?
yes why does the ground state has no node? Can anyone provide a simple maths proof?- jasony

Graduate Quantum mechanics ground state
Can we always write the wavefunction as \psi_n(x)=N_ng_n(x)\sum_i{c_{n,i}x^i}? Why? Is there other simple proof for the nodeless property of ground state wavefunction?- jasony

Why is the ground state always symmetric?
But generally speaking, is it true that ground state must have no node? Why?- jasony

Graduate First order phase transition (van der waals gas)
I am looking at some of the notes but don't quite understand this. What are the physical explanation of the graphs (Fig 4(a) and 4(b)) on Page 4 ? http://www.pma.caltech.edu/~mcc/Ph127/b/Lecture3.pdf" Why V_{g} decreases with temperature but V_{l} increases with temperature?- jasony

What Is the Tension of the String in Yo-Yo Motion?
Homework Statement A yo-yo consists of two uniform heavy discs, each of mass M and radius R, connected by a light axle of radius a around which one end of a string is wound. One end of the string is attached to the axle and the other to a fixed point P. The yo-yo is held with its centre of mass...- jasony
