Particle in a box — UPSC IFoS 2020 Physics PYQ

(i) Draw a neat sketch of a finite rectangular potential barrier well of height U' and width L' that contains a particle whose energy E' is less than U'. Solve the Schrödinger equations of the particles outside the well. (ii) Plot wave functions and probability densities |\psi|^2 of the particle for the first three states. Compare the results with that of a particle in a box of infinite potential (U = \infty).
