Is it possible to find the hydrogen atom's radial wavefunctions?
An electron with total orbital angular momentum of $L^2 = \hbar^2 l(l+1)$ will experience a centrifugal force in addition to the Coulomb force from the nucleus. The result is that, in the frame rotati …

Understanding the parabolic state of a quantum particle in the infinite square well
There's a simple error in your $\psi_n$ which is screwing you up. In general, the form of the eigenstates $\psi_n(x;x_o,L)$ for a well of length $L$ starting at $x_o$ is
$$
\psi_n(x;x_o,L) \propto \si …
