    Graduate Simple Harmonic Oscillator Zero Probability Points

    Hi, What is the physical meaning of zero probability of finding a particle in the square of the Quantum SHO wave function? the particle is supposed to oscillate about the equilibrium position, how would it go from an end point to the other end point without passing by certain points? Could the...

    Undergrad Sin(2x) and sin(3x) are orthogonal to each other

    Hi everybody, I read that sin(2x) and sin(3x) are orthogonal to each other. In general if I want to check if two functions are orthogonal or not I must integrate their product First: why the integration of their multiplication (not their addition for example)? Second: Orthogonal...

    Graduate De Broglie Wavelengths & Electron Orbitals

    Hi everyone, I read that: The electron (according to de broglie) can be described by a summation of many different waves according to PSI(X,t)= integration (A e^i(kx-wt)) Does each wave correspond to a certain orbital? and if each of them is for an...
