What is the separation at which an object in an elliptical orbit has its average speed, relative to the primary object?

Find a general expression for the separation between two gravitationally bound masses, in elliptical orbits around a common center of mass, when they have their average speed relative to each other. (Hint: it isn't the length of the semimajor axis.)

Consider the particle-in-a-box problem in 1d. a particle with mass m is confined to move freely between two hard walls situated at x = 0 and x = l. the potential energy function is given as (a) describe the boundary conditions that must be satisfied by the wavefunctions ψ(x) (such as energy eigenfunctions). (b) solve the schr¨odinger’s equation and by using the boundary conditions of part (a) find all energy eigenfunctions, ψn(x), and the corresponding energies, en.
