Consider a particle in a 1-d well with potential V(x) =-U for-d < x < d, and V(z) 0 elsewhere. We will use the variational wave function v(z) = A(b + r), t(x)-A(b-x), -b < r < 0, 0 < x < b, to show that a bound state exists for any U0. a) Normalize the wave function. Find the expectation values of the kinetic and potential energies b) Show that for sufficiently large b, with b> d, the expectation...

Evaluate the average kinetic and potential energies for the second excited state (n = 2) of the harmonic oscillator. (Hint: this problem requires some integration)
Exercise 17.3.4.* We discuss here some tricks for evaluating the expectation values of certain operators in the eigenstates of hydrogen. (1) Suppose we want (1/ r m. Consider first (2/r). We can interpret ( r) as the first- order correction due to a perturbation 1/r. Now this problem can be solved exactly; we just replace e? by e- 2 everywhere. (Why?) So the exact energy, from Eq. (13.1.16) is E(X) = -(e-2) m/2n'h. The first-order correction is the term linear...
