A particle is confined to a one-dimensional box (an infinite well)on the x-axis between x = 0 and x = L.The potential height of the walls of the box is infinite.The normalized wave function of the particle,which is in the ground state,is given by ψ(x)= sin ,with 0 ≤ x ≤ L.What is the probability of finding the particle between x = 0 and x = L/3?
A)0.20
B)0.22
C)0.24
D)0.26
E)0.28
