Probability wave function is still in ground state after imparting momentum
Thank you. Do you by any chance know any way to solve that integral by hand? I solved it on mathematica and it gave me ##P=e^\frac{-{k_{0}}^{2}\hbar}{4mw}## but I have no idea how to solve it by hand. Thanks again.- xoxomae

Probability wave function is still in ground state after imparting momentum
Ah right. So would this be the probability of the system still being in the ground state? ##\left | \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} \psi_{0} \psi_{0} e^{ik_{o}x}dx\right |^2=P##- xoxomae

Question about the Dirac Delta Function
Homework Statement Find the Fourier spectrum of the following equation Homework Equations ##F(\omega)=\pi[\delta(\omega - \omega _0)+\delta(\omega +\omega_0)]## The Attempt at a Solution Would the Fourier spectrum just be two spikes at ##+\omega _0## and ##-\omega _0## which go up to infinity?- xoxomae

Undergrad Phasor angular velocity for a triangle wave?
What would the angular velocity for a phasor be for a triangle wave? I think it would vary sinusoidally but I can't find an expression -

Maximum Kinetic Energy from a Physical Pendulum
I used a factor of sin (x) because the change in the y-axis * mg is equal to total potential energy y = r sin (theta) when changing between polar and cartesian coordinates Is this the wrong way to think about it?- xoxomae

Disintegration Energy of Beta Plus Decay
Ah i think I understand Q = ((mC- 6mE) - (mB - 5mE + mE))c2 Q = (mC - mB - 2me) c2 Is this right?- xoxomae
