Homework Statement Use a series expansion ψ=A0x0+A1x1+A2x2+... to determine the three lowest-order wave functions for a harmonic oscillator with spring constant k and mass m, and show that the engergies are the expected values. Homework Equations Series expansion given above Time...

Which lines should be integrated? The ones for the 3 regions or the 4 conditions? I am unclear on how i will be getting 5 equations. And I presume that you are saying to integrate first, and then solve for the unknowns?

Homework Statement Solve Explicitly the first two eigenfunctions ψ(x) for the finite square wave potential V=V0 for x<a/2 or x>a/2, and V=0 for -a/2<x<a/2, with 0<E<V0. Homework Equations See image The Attempt at a Solution See image. After modeling an in class example, my classmates and i...

Thank you for the replys. I have since gotten together with some classmates and we found a solution.

I am not familiar with the Biot Savart Law. For the other sections though, would I be correct with the equation I posted earlier?

Homework Statement Problem as given: A three-dimensional wire of infinite length carries a current I0 starting at (-∞,0,0) along a straight line to (0,0,0), bending and traveling along a straight line to (0,1,0), then bending and traveling to (0,1,1) and finally bending and traveling out to...
