Quantum Average Momentum Compared with Classical Statistical Pressure Part II

In Part I, we considered the ideal gas law P= density(x) RT of a Maxwell-Botlzmann gas, which follows from the notion of impulse 2p multiplied by v (flux) and then averaged,and examined how it balanced (on two sides of a box) a force -dV(x)/dx multiplied by density. We argued that in a quantum bound state there is no notion of internal time and hence no flux and so considered an average impulse 2p multiplied by an overall internal time in the system, namely hbar/E. We found that this scenario balanced with -dVd/x matches the quantum oscillator ground state. In this note we ask: What about other potential V(x) situations? Quantum mechanics seems to be a mixture of statistical mechanics and Newtonian dynamics i.e. the time-independent Schrodinger equation is, on average, an energy conservation equation for all energy levels i.e. KE(x)+V(x) = En where KE = {Sum over p a(p)pp/2m exp(kpx)}/{Sum over p a(p)exp(ipx)}. In (1) we took d/dx to bring out a force term -dV/dx and showed if is linked to and , but analyzed these in terms of fluxes. The notion of flux makes sense using external time, but internally there is no time and so here we try to examine the situation in terms of various impulses
