Question 3: CLO2
Consider a particle confined inside one-dimensional infinite deep potential well (0  x  a), where it can move
freely, but subject to strong force at x = 0 and x = a. Use Schrodinger’s equation to formulate expression for
momentum of a particle and possible values of energy. (10)

⃗ and the loop
line perpendicular to the plane of the loop makes an angle ϕ with the direction of the magnetic field 𝐵
carries a current I. (10)
