Question

The initial wavefunction for a simple harmonic oscillator is:
 

\psi(x, 0) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} (\psi_0(x) - i \sqrt{3} \psi_2(x)),



where \psi_0 and \psi_2 are the normalized eigenfunctions of the simple harmonic oscillator. Determine \psi(x, t) and the expectation value of \hat{H} in the state \psi(x, 0).
