Question:

(a) Use the recursion formula (Equation 4.76) to confirm that when ℓ = n-1  the radial wave function takes the form

and determine the normalization constant Nn by direct integration.
(b) Calculate (r) and (r2) for states of the form Ψn(n-1)m.
(c) Show that the “uncertainty” in r (σr) is (r) / for such states.

Equation 4.76
