Since the particle must be somewhere in the box, the integral of this function over the length of the box must be equal to 1. This is the normalization condition and ensuring that this is the case is called “normalizing" the wave function. Find the value of A the amplitude of the wave function, that normalizes it. Write the normalized wave function for the nth state of the particle in a box.
