An electron with kinetic energy E = 3.10 eV is incident on a barrier of width L = 0.230 nm and height U = 10.0 eV (a) What is the probability that the electron tunnels through the barrier? (Use 9.11  10-31 kg for the mass of an electron, 1.055 ✕ 10−34 J · s for ℏ, and note that there are 1.60 ✕ 10−19 J per eV.)   b) What is the probability that the electron is reflected?   What If? For what value of U (in eV) would the probability of transmission be exactly 25.0% and 50.0%?   c) 25.0%   d) 50.0%
A proton is in a box of width L. What must the width of the box be for the ground-level energy to be 5.0 MeV, a typical value for the energy with which the particles in a nucleus are bound? Compare your result to the size of a nucleus—that is, on the order of 10-14 m.
Problem 1: (a) A non-relativistic, free particle of mass m is bouncing back and forth between two perfectly reflecting walls separated by a distance L. Imagine that the two oppositely directed matter waves associated with this particle interfere to create a standing wave with a node at each of the walls. Find the kinetic energies of the ground state (first harmonic, n = 1) and first excited state (second harmonic, n = 2). Find the formula for the kinetic energy of the n-th harmonic. (b) If an electron and a proton have the same non-relativistic kinetic energy, which particle has the larger de Broglie wavelength? (c) Find the de Broglie wavelength of an electron that is accelerated from rest through a small potential difference V. (d) If a free electron has a de Broglie wavelength equal to the diameter of Bohr's model of the hydrogen atom (twice the Bohr radius), how does its kinetic energy compare to the ground-state energy of an electron bound to a Bohr model hydrogen atom?
