[Note from mentor: This thread was originally posted in a non-homework forum, so it lacks the homework template. Even though the solution was resolved there, the thread has been moved here for future reference.]So I'm given Φ = N(φ1+2*φ2 + 3*φ3)
and the operator A with eigen values λ1 = 1, λ2 = 3, λ3=5.
I had to find N such that Φ is normalized which the result is 1/sqrt(14).
The I had to find a single measurement of finding A in this state which is simple the eigenvalues 1or 3 or 5.
Now have to find <A> which I'm not sure how to get. I keep on getting 3, but my professor got 20/7. What are the steps I need to take? Thank you!
