Overlap between Amplitude Squared

Postby sofiarips » Wed Oct 25, 2023 10:29 pm

So, the amplitude squared of a wave in Schrondigers equation is the probability of the electron location. Amplitude squared of a wave is also the intensity of a wave in the wave model. Are these facts related?

The connection between the square of the wavefunction's amplitude in quantum mechanics and the intensity of a wave in wave mechanics are somewhat similar. They both involve squaring the amplitude to determine a property of interest. However, they are different concepts, as they are unique to their respective domains (quantum mechanics and wave mechanics).
