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 ?(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
