The following trial function for a one dimensional particle-in-a-box problem modifies the one illustrated in class so as to include a variational parameter k: = = xk (L - x) It can be shown the variational energy for this trial function is: 4R2+ k W = (min) mL2 2k-1 Find the optimal value of k. Using the optimal value of k, determine W and calculate the percentage error in the approximated ground state energy.
