Set up Schrodinger equation and discuss the wavefunction. [5]
Consider a free particle moving along the x-direction. The generalized wavefunction is taken as: $$\psi = A e^{i(kx - \omega t)} \quad \cdots (1)$$ where: - $k$ = wave number (propagation constant) - $\omega$ = angular frequency - $A$ = amplitude --- Taking the first derivative of equation (1) wi...
