I Is there a way to calculate the frequency of an electron wave?

Click For Summary
The de Broglie wavelength formula, L=h/p, relates the wavelength of an electron wave to its momentum. To calculate the frequency of the electron wave, the de Broglie frequency formula, f = E/h, can be utilized, where E represents the energy of the electron. Users discussed searching for the de Broglie frequency formula to find more information on this topic. The relationship between energy, momentum, and frequency in quantum mechanics is crucial for understanding electron behavior. This highlights the interconnectedness of wave-particle duality in quantum physics.

Thread 'Angular Momentum Vector and Its Magnitude'

For the quantum state ##|l,m\rangle= |2,0\rangle## the z-component of angular momentum is zero and ##|L^2|=6 \hbar^2##. According to uncertainty it is impossible to determine the values of ##L_x, L_y, L_z## simultaneously. However, we know that ##L_x## and ## L_y##, like ##L_z##, get the values ##(-2,-1,0,1,2) \hbar##. In other words, for the state ##|2,0\rangle## we have ##\vec{L}=(L_x, L_y,0)## with ##L_x## and ## L_y## one of the values ##(-2,-1,0,1,2) \hbar##. But none of these...
