Consider an electron (me = 9.1 × 10-31 kg) having energy 13.6 eV, confined in an infinite potential well. If the potential energy inside the well is zero, the expectation value for the square of the electron speed, ⟨v2⟩, is:
- 14.7 × 1031 m2 s-2
- 24.8 × 1012 m2 s-2✓
- 34.3 × 10-18 m2 s-2
- 43.0 × 1012 m2 s-2
Correct answer
4.8 × 1012 m2 s-2
