    Why is d<xp>/dt = (i/hbar)<[H,xp]> = 0 for a stationary state?

    There's a problem in Liboff's text "Introductory Quantum Mechanics - 3rd Ed." On page 176 problem 6.12 states "A particle moving in one dimension interacts with a potential V(x). In a stationary state of this system show that (1/2) <x dV/dx > = <T> where T = p^2/2m is the kinetic...
