An Electron of Kinetic Energy E0 Traveling in a Region

Question 25

Multiple Choice

An electron of kinetic energy E0 traveling in a region in which the potential energy is zero is then incident on a finite potential barrier of height U0 (= 4E0) and width a.If the potential barrier is reduced to 2E0,by what factor will the probability of penetration of the barrier be changed?
