For the infinite square-well potential, find the probability that a particle in its second excited state is in each third of the one-dimensional box: 0?x?L/3 L/3?x?2L/3 2L/3?x?L There's already an answer on the site saying that the wavefunction is equal to ?(2/L)sin(2?x/L). My professor gave us this equation, but also gave us the equation as wavefunction = Asin(kx)+Bcos(kx), for specific use when solving an infinite potential well. How do I know which equation to use and when? Thanks

Consider a 4-particle system. Each particle may be in one of three levels called "A", "B", and "C". Answer the questions below, using the process of finding micro- and macrostates described in the January 11th lecture. Assume the particles are distinguishable from one another.(a) How many microstates does this system have?(b) For this system, define a macrostate as a set of microstates with the same number of particles in each named state, e.g., (AAAB) and (AABA) are in the same macrostate, but...
