Problem

Obtain your answer to the following question by inspection of the final equation in Box 2-2, and then ask yourself whether or not your conclusion feels right intuitively. If ϕr\phi^r were a sinusoid, how would the physical momentum density of a short wavelength wave compare to that of a longer one?
