Give the Hamiltonian operator and the TDSE & TISE in terms of it |
|
|
|
Give the definition of a commutator and use it to work out the commutator [x-hat,p-hat] |
|
|
|
What are the conditions for commutitve operators? And what is the implications of this |
operators A-hat and B-hat commute if [A-hat,B-hat] = 0 . This means they have simultaneous eigenfunctions |
|
|
What are eigenfunctions and eigenvalues of operators? |
|
|
|
Define the 1D momentum operator, 1D position operator and 1D kinetic energy operator |
|
|
|
What is the expectation value of an operator <A-hat> ? |
|
|
|
How do we calculate the uncertainty of an arbitrary operator A-hat? |
|
|
|
What is the value of the commutator of independent operaters? |
= 0. they commute |
