Homework Statement
I am currently studying for my quantum physics exam and I am trying to derive the Transformation function:
⟨x'│p' ⟩=Nexp{(ip' x')/ℏ}
Homework Equations
⟨x'│p' ⟩=Nexp{(ip' x')/ℏ}
The Attempt at a Solution
Now I get how to get to
p'⟨x'│p' ⟩=-iℏ d/dx' ⟨x'│p' ⟩
but i can't work out how to get both the p' and the x' into the expontential and I am not sure how to explain where the N comes from. Every example i find seems to jump from p'⟨x'│p' ⟩=-iℏ d/dx' ⟨x'│p' ⟩ straight to ⟨x'│p' ⟩=Nexp{(ip' x')/ℏ} without any explanation.
Would anybody be able to explain how to do this?
Thanks
