Question: While we have not yet solved the Hydrogen atom problem two allowed solutions are [ psi _ 1 ( r ) = N _

While we have not yet solved the Hydrogen atom problem two allowed solutions are
[\psi _1(r)=N_1 e^-r/a_0; \psi _2(r \theta )=N_2 r sin\theta cos e^-r/2 a_0]
N_1 and N_2 are normalization constants and a_0= constant (Bohr radius). a. Determine N_1 and N_2 by normalizing the functions. Note: d \tau =r^2 d r sin\theta d \theta d ,0<= r <=\infty ,0<=\theta <=\pi ,0<=<=2\pi b. Show \psi _1 and \psi _2 are orthogonal.
