Or


Thus, c 1 , c2, c3 and c 4 must simultaneously satisfy


C1 + C4/2 = 0


-C3 = 0

C2 + C3/2 = 0

C4 + 3/2 = 0.


Solving this system of equations, we find c 1 = 3/4, c2 = c3 = 0, and c4 =


  • 3/2. Therefore, the solution of the initial value problem (13) is


Consequently,


Or, equivalently

A graph of the path of the electron in the xy-plane is displayed in Figure 9. 7.
The electron is initially at the origin, travels along the path shown, and reaches
the point (0, l.5n) in 7r units of time.
