Chapter 39, Problem 015 An electron is trapped in a one-dimensional infinite potential well that is 150 pm wide; the electron is in its ground state. What is the probability that you can detect the electron in an interval of width dx = 5.0 pm centered at x = 56 pm? (Hint: The interval dx is so narrow that you can take the probability density to be constant within it.) Number Units
