An electron is trapped in a region between two infinitely high energy barriers. In the region between the barriers the potential energy of the electron is zero. The normalized wave function of the electron in the region between the walls is ψ(x) = Asin(bx), where A=0.5nm1/2 and b=1.18nm-1. Find the energy of the electron in this state of motion.
