Both the classical and quantum mechanical probability densities predict for a simple harmonic oscillator that
c.
At energies near the classical realm, both models predict the particle oscillating to be detected most often—that is, the highest probability of being at that point—furthest away from the equilibrium point. The two must match up because of Bohr's correspondence principle.
