33PRACTICE PROBLEM
The wave function ψ(x,t) = A[ei(kx - ωt) - ei(3kx - 9ωt)] is a one-dimensional function of a free particle in space. The constants k and ω are positive and real. i) Determine the least positive value of x that gives a maximum in the probability function |ψ(x,t)|2 at t = 0. ii) Determine the least positive value of x that gives a maximum in the probability function |ψ(x,t)|2 at t = 4π/ω.
