Hi -

Not sure of the answer I've derived to the question below and appreciate expert opinion please ?

Many Thanks

(a) A particle of mass 2.00 x 10-kg is confined in a hollow cubical three-dimensional box, each edge of which has a length, 2.00 x 10-10m. and for which the potential energy function is zero inside, and infinite outside, the box. The total energy of the particle is 2.47 x 10 J. Find the quantum numbers that correspond to each of the three possible quantum states. (b) (i) If the same particle is instead confined in one dimension between infinitely high potential barriers, with the same energy and in the same size region as above, find the single quantum number that characterises the wavefunction of the particle when it occupies this energy level. page 4 of 6 (ii) Sketch graphs that show the wavefunction and the relative probabilities of detecting the particle in different regions (of the same small widths) between the walls. (iii) Explain why the particle is more likely to be detected in a small region centred on a position 0.50 x 10-10m from either wall than in a small region centred on a position 1.00 x 10-10'm from either wall
