Suppose a quanton's wavefunction at a given time is y(x) = Asin(27x/L) for -L≤x≤ L and y(x) = 0 everywhere else, where A is a scaling constant and L is a constant with untis of length. Suppose also the energy eigenfunction associated with the energy eigen- value E is VE(x) = Bcos(x/L) for-L≤x≤L and y(x) = 0 everywhere else, where B is a scaling constant. What is the probability that if we determine the quanton's energy, we get the result E? (Hint: Do not do an integral. Draw graphs of these functions and think about what the product of these function should look at. Recall that a function's integral delivers the area under that function's curve.)
