1. Consider a one-dimensional simple harmonic oscillator. We know that the total energy (E) has values: Here the angular frequency (o) corresponds to the freshman physics value of [spring constant/massja and (n) can be 0, 1,2, any non-negative integer. We know that the total energy is a measurable, observable quantity. The total energy includes the kinetic energy and the potential energy. Please explain whether or not the kinetic energy and the potential energy can both be measured at the same...
