- P7F.9 In this problem you will establish the commutation relations, given in eqn 7E. 14, between the operators for the x-, y-, and z-components of angular momentum, which are defined in eqn 7F.13. In order to manipulate the operators correctly it is helpful to imagine that they are acting on some arbitrary function f: it does not matter what fis, and at the end of the proof it is simply removed. Consider [,,1,] = ,-11. Consider the effect of the first term on some arbitrary function fand evaluate A D -x dx se The next step is to multiply out the parentheses, and in doing so care needs to be taken over the order of operations. (b) Repeat the procedure for the other term in the commutator, 1,1, f. (c) Combine the results from (a) and (b) so as to evaluate l f-11f;you should find that many of the terms cancel.
