Techniques and applications of quantum theory

Quantum theory, often known as quantum physics, is the foundation of modern physics and encompasses the nature and behavior of matter and energy at the atomic and molecular levels. As the exact nature and behavior of atomic and subatomic particles are impossible to determine, the laws of classical physics do not apply to this discipline. As a result, quantum field theory is primarily based on assumptions and probabilities.

Consider a hydrogen atom in the 1s state. (a) For what value of r is the potential energy U(r) equal to the total energy E? Express your answer in terms of a. This value of r is called the classical turning point, since this is where a Newtonian particle would stop its motion and reverse direction. (b) For r greater than the classical turning point, U(r)7 E. Classically, the particle cannot be in this region, since the kinetic energy cannot be negative. Calculate the probability of the electron being found in this classically forbidden region.
