1. A bead of mass M slides without friction along a circular wire ring of circumference L. On taking s as the length coordinate along the ring, the normalized energy eigenfunctions are etiks e-iks VI V_(s) = VC' where E is the bead's mechanical energy and k := /2ME/N2 is a positive constant. Use the condition V+(s +L) = V4(s) to get a formula for the particle's allowed values of E.
