9. (15) Consider a particle of mass m that moves in a three dimensional potential V(r) = kr, where k is a positive constant having the dimensions of a force. Use the variational method to estimate the ground state energy, using a trial function (with a being an adjustable parameter): ¥(r) = e-r²/(2a²)
