Consider the wavefunction for the first excited state of the harmonic oscillator Wu=1 = A2xe 2a2 2 a) Derive an expression for the normalisation constant A so that Yv=1 is normalised to 1. (Use Lox?e * dx = vta?). -. [10 marks] b) Calculate the expectation value of the position operator, Ê = x*, for Yv=1 (Use Lx3e a dx = 0). [10 marks)
