Ph314, Spring 2009, Homework Assignment #7
K. Krane, "Modern Physics". Chapter 7, Problems 4, 5 and 11
(1 pt. each); Problem 6 (2 pts.); and either
Problem 13, or Problem 15 (each worth 2 pts.).
Problem 13 is a good exercise for integrating by parts --
one has to use the integration by parts scheme four times!, but it is
a pretty straightforward job. In problem 15, by contrast, you don't need to
integrate because between a0 and 1.01a0
the function does not change very much, so that one can approximate the
integral by the function value at a0 multiplied
by the range width, i.e., by 0.01a0.
