Multiple Choice
A particle is confined to a one-dimensional box (an infinite well) on the x-axis between x = 0 and x = L. The potential height of the walls of the box is infinite. The normalized wave function of the particle, which is in the ground state, is given by ψ(x) = sin
, with 0 ≤ x ≤ L. What is the maximum probability per unit length of finding the particle?
A) 1/
B)
C) 2/
D) 1/L
