Determine the probability that a ground state <strong>part</strong>icle (n = 1) makes a transition to the first excited state<br />

(n = 2) (you can consi<strong>de</strong>r that t to answer this question) ?<br />

What is the probability that the ground state <strong>part</strong>icle makes the transition to the second excited<br />

state (n = 3) ?<br />

(c) What happens to the results when 0 ?<br />
