3.12 - Infinite slot
3.13 - Charge density on infinite slot
3.15 - Cubic box
3.16 - Derive P3(x) and check it.
HW6.1 - Use Legendre's equation to prove the orthogonality relation, Eq. 3.68 in
Griffiths.
HW6.2 - Derive the Taylor expansion in s for the function g(u,s)
= (1-2us+s2)-1/2 through order s3.
Show that the coefficients are the first four Legendre polynomials. [g(u,s)
is known as the generating function of the Legendre polynomials.]
