Скачать или смотреть Expectation Value of Potential & Kinetic Energy in Quantum Harmonic Oscillator (n=0) | Beiser Solved

Step-by-step solution to Problem 32 of Chapter 5 from Arthur Beiser’s "Concepts of Modern Physics.”
The potential energy of a harmonic oscillator is U=1/2kx2. Show that the expectation value U of U is Eo/2 when the oscillator is in the n=0 state. (This is true of all states of the harmonic oscillator, in fact.) What is the expectation value of the oscillator’s kinetic energy? How do these results compare with the classical values of U and KE?
