For our third quantum problem we will visit harmonic oscillators. In a classical setting, this is like the ball on a spring we examined when learning about Hooke's law in the classical physics series. But this has quantum application as well, in modeling the vibrations of molecules and things of that nature. How do we calculate the energy of such a particle? Let's take a look!

I’m watching this and said to my wife: “isn’t this so fascinating?” And she replied: “oh he lost me at hello” 😂

Our professor is going to explain this law at University tomorrow, so I am Lucky 😏😂

i know these videos don't get as many views as your debunking videos, but honestly love the purely educational material, and i hope you keep making it.

Setting V=0 is not possible. It describes a particular state of the system where x=0. In short V is not uniformly 0 over the entire domain of displacement.

Hey professor Dave! Could you please make a serious video on electrodynamics? My mom is having a hard time in her classes. Would be much appreciated <3

What happens when the potential is only in the limit 0 to +infinity..but potential become infinity in the negative x axis.

“Oscillation Function, what’s your junction?” Thank you Professor! ^.^

Sorry for the off topic. Just want to say a big thank you. I am an electronics engineer that hated math with a passion. You explain it step by step and also quickly.

Literally just did this in class, still cool to see it from you though!

I was really waiting for this video...now hope the 2nd part will come soon... thank u so much

Ok this is awesome! Clever derivations and all.

Welcome to the least toxic part of RU-vid where people are just looking to better there education

Potential vs. Potential Energy question... At 2 minutes you state that F= -dV/dx, shouldn't this be F= -dU/dx (where U is the potential energy)?

Thank you for this Professor Dave

Great video! But I must point on a tiny error. the second time derivative in Newton's second law is not partial

@MisterItchy 2 года назад

Because it is labelled Part 1, I thought, hey, I'll give it a listen. Let's see how far I get.

@DidiestEva 2 года назад

hi pr Dave !! your videos are fascinating and helped me a lot. Will you consider making videos on statistical thermodynamics ? This class is incredibly hard and i feel like your vids would clear that up nicely :)
