CH 301 Chapter 1: 29/1/17: Heisenberg / Quantum mechanical
Document Summary
Particle has definite trajector or path on which location and linear momentum are specified at each instant. But if a particle is a wave we can not find it. Complex mentality of location and moment if one property is known the other can not. H bar = h/2 px h. The location and momentum of a particle are complementary that is in location and the momentum cannot both be known instantly with arbitrary precision. The quantitative relation between the precision of each measurement is described by the heisenberg uncertainty principle. Born interaction of wave function: probability of finding the p aricie in a region proportion. Wave function () the the value of 2 to be precise. 2 is probability density: probability that the particle will be found in a small. Calculate both the wavefunction and the corresponding energy e. If 2 is large then particle has high density. If 2 is small then particle has low density.
