Consider the "step" potential: V(x) = (a) Calculate the reflection coefficient, for the case E 0. (b) Calculate the reflection coefficient for the case E > Vo. (c) For a potential such as this, which does not go back to zero to the right of the barrier, the transmission coefficient is not simply |F12/A2 (with A the -Vo AV(x) Scattering from a "cliff" incident amplitude and F the transmitted amplitude), because the transmitted wave travels at a different speed. Show that T = E-Vo F1² E |A|² X for E> Vo. Hint: You can figure it out using Equation gantly, but less informatively-from the probability current ( What is T, for E Vo, calculate the transmission coefficient for the step potential, and check that T + R = 1.
Consider the three-dimensional harmonic oscillator, for which the potential is V ( r ) = 1/2 m ω2 r2    (a) Show that the separation of variables in Cartesian coordinates turns this into three one-dimensional oscillators, and exploit your knowledge of the latter to determine the allowed energies.  Answer: En = ( n + 3/2 ) ħ ω   (b) Determine the degeneracy d ( n ) of En
PROBLEM 3. Using the variational method, calculate the ground state en- ergy Eo of a particle in the triangular potential: U(r) = 0 r 0. Use the trial function v(x) = Cx exp(-ar), where a is a variational parameter and C is a normalization constant to be found. Compare your result for Eo with the exact solution, Eo 1.856(h? F/m)/3.
