Comparison of Classical and Quantum
Mechanics
Newton’s second law can be derived from the Schrödinger
wave equation, so the latter is the more fundamental.
Classical mechanics only appears to be more precise because
it deals with macroscopic phenomena.
Newton’s second law (𝐹 ⃗ = 𝑑𝑝⃗/𝑑𝑡) and Schrödinger’s wave
equation are both differential equations.
Expectation Values
The expectation value is the expected result of the average of
many measurements of a given quantity.The expectation value
of x is denoted by <x>

Schrödinger wave equation
Degeneracy
A quantum state is degenerate when there is more than one wave
function for a given energy
Degeneracy results from particular properties of the potential energy
function that describes the system
A perturbation of the potential
energy can remove the degeneracy.
