The time-independent Schroedinger equation is given by:
− Wave functions that satisfy this equation are called energy eigenstates. a) If U=0 for all positions, this represents a free particle. For a wave function with definite momentum ℏ,, compute E. b) Is the relationship derived from a) consistent with what we know from classical mechanics for a free particle? Explain how or how not. c) Consider the wave function ((^b[j + ^bâj), with A some number and c, d not equal in magnitude or sign. Show whether this wave function is an energy eigenstate. d) What would be the result of a measurement of the momentum of the wave function in part c)? The energy?
