How do iquantum tunel through a wall and how long will it take me?
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

The phenomenon known as "tunneling" is one of the best-known predictions of quantum physics, because it so dramatically confounds our classical intuition for how objects ought to behave. If you create a narrow region of space that a particle would have to have a relatively high energy to enter, classical reasoning tells us that low-energy particles heading toward that region should reflect off the boundary with 100% probability. Instead, there is a tiny chance of finding those particles on the far side of the region, with no loss of energy. It's as if they simply evaded the "barrier" region by making a "tunnel" through it.

Suppose Joe, who can type 40 words per minute, takes 2.5 hours to type his report. To speed things up, his friend Mark offers to
Vika [28.1K]

Explanation:

When Joe works alone, the total number  of words he typed can be given by:

Total words = (40 words per minute) x (60 minutes per hour) x (2.5 hours)

Total words = 6000 words

Now, when Joe and Mark work together, let 'y' be the number of hours for which they both work simultaneously:

Total words = Words Typed by Joe + Words Typed by Mark

6000 = {(40 words per minute) x (60 minutes per hours) x (y hours)} + {(20 words per minute) x (60 minutes per hours) x (y hours)}

6000 = 2400y + 1200y = 3600y

y = 1.67 hours = 1 hour and 40 minutes

Thus, working together simultaneously, Joe and Mark will take 1 hour and 40 minutes to complete the report.

No they don't.  Incident rays parallel to the axis of a concave mirror
reflect from the mirror's surface and converge at its focal point.
