Problem 7
Consider a rotor with moment of inertia is I, that rotates freely around the z-axis. Define o
to be the variable Euler angle of the rotor in the r-y plane.
(a) Find the energy eigenvalues and the corresponding normalized eigenfunctions.
(b) At time t = 0, the rotor is described by a wavefunction
V(6,t = 0) = Asin²o
with A a constat. Find the wavefunction V(6, t) at time t > 0.
Hìnt: You may want to consider the classical Hamiltonian of an analog classical problem as
illustrated in the figure.
