question 8

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/
• C)2/
• D)1/L
• E)2/L
