    Quantum Tunneling to an infinite wall

    I managed to figure it out, thank you for the help though!

    Quantum Tunneling to an infinite wall

    So in my example, x=o when ##\psi## which would make e^0=1 so my region 3 equation becomes C+D=0 or C=D?

    Quantum Tunneling to an infinite wall

    Sorry I'll try to clarify a bit more, you have a particle coming in from the left, it hits a barrier of potential v0, then it continues and hits an infinite wall at some point x, my question is what happens to the wave function at that point x when it hits the infinite wall, does it go to zero...

    Quantum Tunneling to an infinite wall

    I have the equations for all three regions but usually for region 3, which is Ce^ikx+De-ikx, the C term would be zero since there is no reflection, but with the infinite wall would it reflect? Would the whole wavefunction go to zero like when working with the infinite square wall? I'm stuck on...

    Help me confirm I got the right answer: finding the torque F

    oh shoot, so it would be 1/sqrt58 (-378, 0,-54)?

    The Quantum Uncertainty of a Particle

    Oh ok yeah no I haven't taken a course yet so that's new to me but thanks for all your help, I was able to figure out my question, thank you!

    The Quantum Uncertainty of a Particle

    I think so lol sorry, thinking on what you said though would it be the quantum harmonic oscillation? that is what the problem is about

    The Quantum Uncertainty of a Particle

    wait uncertainty increases as n increases

    The Quantum Uncertainty of a Particle

    Seems to increase by ~1? Sorry I'm so lost, math is not my strong suit

    The Quantum Uncertainty of a Particle

    Ok so they are almost the same thing right?

    The Quantum Uncertainty of a Particle

    Well I see that as we get to 5 the answer gets closer to 2.34, Is it saying that as the number goes up the uncertainty gets closer and closer to 2.34? So a more precise calculation?

    The Quantum Uncertainty of a Particle

    Summary:: I'm trying to understand the meaning behind the answer of 2.34... but I haven't taken a quantum class yet so I'm utterly lost. So I took this physics class that's teaching us python and for our final project our teacher assigned random problems to work out, well I got stuck with a...
