some questions...

=> How are observables related to operators in quantum mechanics?

=> what is the physical significance of state funtion in quantum mechanics?

=> why are hermition operators associated with observables in quantum mechanics?

=> what is the physical interpretation of J?
where J=L+S
=> Can we measure x ans p simultaneously with unlimited precision? give reason

You need to show your work on these questions before we can offer any tutorial help.
 


please reply anyone and give answer this m worry about thatttttt
 


No.

You must show some work.
 


which type i show work

Your response does not parse well in English.

We are asking you to show your attempts at answering your questions. You must do the work here. If you show your work, we may be able to offer hints on the parts you are having trouble with.
 
Thread 'Need help understanding this figure on energy levels'
This figure is from "Introduction to Quantum Mechanics" by Griffiths (3rd edition). It is available to download. It is from page 142. I am hoping the usual people on this site will give me a hand understanding what is going on in the figure. After the equation (4.50) it says "It is customary to introduce the principal quantum number, ##n##, which simply orders the allowed energies, starting with 1 for the ground state. (see the figure)" I still don't understand the figure :( Here is...
Thread 'Understanding how to "tack on" the time wiggle factor'
The last problem I posted on QM made it into advanced homework help, that is why I am putting it here. I am sorry for any hassle imposed on the moderators by myself. Part (a) is quite easy. We get $$\sigma_1 = 2\lambda, \mathbf{v}_1 = \begin{pmatrix} 0 \\ 0 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix} \sigma_2 = \lambda, \mathbf{v}_2 = \begin{pmatrix} 1/\sqrt{2} \\ 1/\sqrt{2} \\ 0 \end{pmatrix} \sigma_3 = -\lambda, \mathbf{v}_3 = \begin{pmatrix} 1/\sqrt{2} \\ -1/\sqrt{2} \\ 0 \end{pmatrix} $$ There are two ways...
