mechanical operator.
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
I think I know in that eq 'f' is the eigenfunction, and lambda is the eigenvalue, but I have no idea how to write in words what they actually are, and that still leaves the question of what an eigenstate is...
Any help would be appriciated
