Consider a vertical one-dimensional box of height L where the potential energy of the trapped electron depends on its position due to gravity, such that V(y) =mgy between the two infinite energy barriers. Determine the first-order correction to the energy of the lowest energy state (n = 0), and comment on the factors affecting this correction L (1) EO " - 2m 8 The correction is significant only at very low values of g and high values of L. OE (1) =m gl "82 The correction is significant only at very high values of g and L. 1 E")=- , 2 The correction is significant only at very high values of g and L. 2m (1) E e 8L - = The correction is significant only at very low values of g and L.
