Uncertainty principle
The bigger the object is, the smaller its wavelength. Hence,
that approach gives us the momentum of the particle, but says
nothing about the position.

Statistical interpretation of the wave function
That is for the discrete case, for the continuous one we have
Z
hxi = xP(x)dx (3)

Newtonian physics as a particular case
Let F (x) be the force as usually described and let us now take
λ → 0 where λ is the wavelength.
Notice that this means taking away the wave depiction and
focusing one the particle one. In this case, we have that:
d 2 hxi
hF i = m (4)

The first one is
} ∂f (t)
+ E · f (t) = 0 (9)
i ∂t
f (t) = e rt (10)
} rt
re + E · e rt = 0 (11)

This finally means that the solution is

r= (12)

+ V (x)φ(x) = E φ(x) (13)
2m ∂x 2
The solution of this equation, given by φ(x) depends upon the
choice of V (x). And that is what we will deal with later.
To finish this section, we can conclude that
