    Is the First Excited State of a Particle in a Rectangular Box Degenerate?

    How do you know that? Is there something I am not seeing?

    Is the First Excited State of a Particle in a Rectangular Box Degenerate?

    Wouldn't that imply that there is zero energy in the ground state and is that possible?

    Is the First Excited State of a Particle in a Rectangular Box Degenerate?

    A particle is confined inside a rectangular box with sides of length a,a, and 2a. What is the energy of the first excited state? Is this state degenerate? If so, determine how many different wave fuctions have this energy. The relevant equations are E=Ex+Ey+Ez =((hbar^2*pi^2)/2m)...
