Question 3, but this time using the WKB approximation to determine the allowed energies of the harmonic oscillator. [12]
coefficients to simplify the 3. Use the variational method to estimate the energies of the ground and first excited states for the one-dimensional harmonic oscillator. You might find the following trial functions handy: [20] • For the ground state: ~ Ae-ax² . For the first excited state: 1~ Bxe-ax² Comment on the accuracy of the estimates and why. 4. Repeat
