I'm having a little trouble whit this homework assignment. Any help would be greatly appreciated. =)
Explain if the following statements are true or false:
a) Wavefunctions [tex]\phi[/tex]1 and [tex]\phi[/tex]2 are solutions to the time independent Schrödinger's equation, that correspond to the energies E1 and E2. Now theta=c1[tex]\phi[/tex]1+c2[tex]\phi[/tex]2 is the solution to the same schrödinger's equation and the energy corresponding to the state [tex]\Theta[/tex] is 1/2(E1+E2)
b)The wavefunction that depicts the particles state is [tex]\Theta[/tex]=-i/3[tex]\phi[/tex]1+2[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex]/3[tex]\phi[/tex]2, where [tex]\phi[/tex]1 and [tex]\phi[/tex]2 are the wavefunktions from question a). When measuring the energy of one million of these identical particles' 11,1% of them show the energy E1
