    Expectation Value of a component of Orbital Angular Momentum

    Homework Statement given a certain state |ψ> that is an eigenstate of L^2 and Lz Calculate <Lx^2> and <Lx> Homework Equations L^2|ψ> = l(l+1)h^2 Lz|ψ> = mh|ψ> Lx = YPz - ZPy The Attempt at a Solution <Lx^2> = (1/2)(h^2)[l(l+1)-(m1)^2] for Lx i got <Lx> = ∫ψ(YPz-ZPy)ψ dx
