using the classicial definition of kinetic energy K=1/2mv^2 and the quantum mechanical definition of linear momentum px=-ih d/dx derive the quantum mechanical kinetic energy operator K=- h2/2m d2/dx2

Quantum theory, often known as quantum physics, is the foundation of modern physics and encompasses the nature and behavior of matter and energy at the atomic and molecular levels. As the exact nature and behavior of atomic and subatomic particles are im…
