Question

Results for this submission: At least one of the answers above is NOT correct. (10 points) Find a solution to the initial value problem:

y' + sin(t) y = g(t), y(0) = 4,
that is continuous and not continuous.

Answer 1

The student requires assistance solving a first-order ordinary differential equation with an initial value, understanding wave function continuity and superposition in quantum mechanics, and calculating wave properties within Schrödinger's equation framework.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student is asking to find a solution to a differential equation with an initial value. This involves solving a first-order ordinary differential equation of the form y' + sin(t) y = g(t), where y(0) = 4. In the context of wave mechanics, the student is also asked to discuss the continuity of solutions and their compatibility with Schrödinger's equation, as well as to evaluate various properties of given wave functions.

Examples of the problems mentioned include:

Show that Y (x, t) functions do not obey Schrödinger's time-dependent equation.

Demonstrate superposition of wave functions as a solution.

Calculate the height of a wave at a given position and time.

Explain why certain wave functions are not solutions to stationary Schrödinger's equation in a quantum mechanics framework.
