Problem 2. (30 pts) Consider a simple model of a free particle wave packet as a "square
packet". We will model this at t = 0 as:
ipox
(x, t = 0) =
0, x < 0
0 ≤ x ≤ a
0,
x > a
Aex(ax)/a²,
(5 pts) Write down the integral expression to determine A (but do not evaluate it).
a.
b. (4 pts) Sketch the real part of (x, t = 0). Assume a > h/po. (Note that A = .
√30/a ).
c. (7 pts) Write down the integral for the momentum-space wave function (p). Do not
evaluate it, but put it into a form such that it could be evaluated by a software program (such
as Mathematica).
d. (4 pts) Sketch an estimate of the plot of (p) 2. Since you did not evaluate the integral in
part c, you only need to include important features: location(s) of maximum value(s), the
characteristic width (if relevant) and the behavior at large tp. Very briefly explain the reason
for each feature.
e. (4 pts) If the box width a were increased, how would that change your plot in part d?
Explain.
f. (6 pts) Short answers:
i. Is (x) = 0 at t = 0? Briefly explain
ii. Does (x) change with time? Briefly explain
iii. Is (p)=0 at t = 0? Briefly explain.
iv. Does (p) change with time? Briefly explain.
