YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

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!
