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

Find the lowest two "threefold degenerate excited states" of the three-dimensional infinite square well potential for a cubical "box." Express your answers in terms of the three quantum numbers (n1, n2, n3). Express the energy of the two excited degenerate states that you found as a multiple of the ground state (1,1,1) energy. Would these degeneracies be "broken" if the box was not cubical? Explain your answer with an example!
