Chapter , Problem 9

(choose chapter or problem)

The quantity is a measure of the average spread in the location of a particle. (a) Consider an electron trapped in a harmonic oscillator potential. Its lowest energy level is found to be Calculate for this electron. (See 6 and 8.) (b) Now consider an electron trapped in an infinite square-well potential. If the width of the well is equal to what would be the lowest energy level for this electron?
