Problems Related To 1D Box

The document discusses the calculation of average values for position, energy, and momentum of a particle in a one-dimensional box using normalized wave functions. It includes mathematical expressions for these averages, particularly focusing on the wave function sin(x). Additionally, it proves the orthogonality of two wave functions, sin(x) and sin(kx), by demonstrating that their integral product equals zero.
