Multiple choice
Applying the lowering operator to ∣1,1⟩|1,1\rangle gives S−∣1,1⟩=j(j+1)−m(m−1)∣1,0⟩S_- |1,1\rangle = \sqrt{j(j+1) - m(m-1)} |1,0\rangle with j=1j=1, m=1m=1, so the normalization is N=2N = \sqrt{2}. The state ∣1,0⟩=(1/N)(∣down,up⟩+∣up,down⟩)|1,0\rangle = (1/N)(|down,up\rangle + |up,down\rangle). What is the Clebsch-Gordan coefficient of ∣up,down⟩|up,down\rangle in ∣1,0⟩|1,0\rangle?
