The raising and lowering operators are denoted as L + and L - , respectively. The correct commutator relation between the total angular momentum operator squared (L 2 ) and these step-up/step-down operators is:
- 1[L 2 , L + ] = [L 2 , L - ] = ℏL z
- 2[L 2 , L + ] = [L 2 , L - ] = ℏL x
- 3[L 2 , L + ] = [L 2 , L - ] = ℏL y
- 4[L 2 , L + ] = [L 2 , L - ] = 0✓
Correct answer
[L 2 , L + ] = [L 2 , L - ] = 0
