Question

Don't solve the question, please only find the wavefunction 

The graph below represents a normalized wave function (x) for a particle confined
to the interval x E (-L, L). For the purpose of this question, ignore the fact that
the wave function is not continuous. What is the magnitude of the constant A?
A
-A
-L

Expert Solution
Step 1

A cartesian coordinate system contains two mutually perpendicular number lines named x-axis and y-axis. The point of intersection of the axes is called origin and its coordinate is (0,0). The x coordinate of the point is defined as the perpendicular distance from the y axis and the y coordinate of the point is defined as the perpendicular distance from the x-axis. 

The function f(x) is a rule that associates or fixes a number to the particular point x. If y=f(x), then the independent variable x is called the input of the function, and the dependent variable y is called the output of the function.
