Part 1a. Calculate the relative probability distribution, PR(X), for a 1-kg particle initially atrest and attached to a spring (a harmonic oscillator) of spring constant k = 2 N/mand an initial displacement from equilibrium of 1 m.b. Now enter in this function into the text box and set the proper classical limits byclicking the "change limits and evaluate" button. What is the normalized classicalprobability distribution, PN(X)? You must normalize (a) by doing the integral.
