(A) A classical particle in a box. (B-D) The three lowest energy wave functions for the quantum mechanical particle in a box. (E-F) A superposition of different energy eigenstates. |
"That doesn't sound dirty," you say. It didn't, but then this happened. Now, good luck trying to make it through lecture without someone giggling and saying, "One. Cut a hole in a box."
(**Edit** Thank you to Sean Robinson for the correcting me on the caption. I wrote this quick and was not paying attention to the fact that the last two states are not energy eigenstates.)
