Answer:

a.) magnitude __49.7__ unit(s)

b.) direction __123.6°_  counterclockwise from the +x axis

Explanation:

Let Vector is v

x-component of Vector v = x = -27.5 units   (minus sign indicate that x-component is along the minus x-axis )

y-component of Vector v = y = 41.4 units

Magnitude of v = ?

Direction of v = ?

To find the magnitude of the vector

                                     v =\sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2}  }  

                                     v = \sqrt{-27.5^{2}+41.4^{2} }

                                     v = 49.7 units  

To find direction

                                 θ = tan⁻¹(y/x)

                                 θ = tan⁻¹(41.4/-27.5)

                                 θ = -56.4°

This Angle is in the clockwise direction with respect to -x axis.

We need to find Angle counterclockwise from the +x axis.

So,

                                 θ = 180° - 56.4°

                                 θ = 123.6°                

The given vector is in 2nd quadrant

A 2 eV electron encounters a barrier 5.0 eV high and width a. What is the probability b) 0.5 that it will tunnel through the bar
denis23 [38]

Answer:

The tunnel probability for 0.5 nm and 1.00 nm are  5.45\times10^{-4} and 7.74\times10^{-8} respectively.

Explanation:

Given that,

Energy E = 2 eV

Barrier V₀= 5.0 eV

Width = 1.00 nm

We need to calculate the value of \beta

Using formula of \beta

\beta=\sqrt{\dfrac{2m}{\dfrac{h}{2\pi}}(v_{0}-E)}

Put the value into the formula

\beta = \sqrt{\dfrac{2\times9.1\times10^{-31}}{(1.055\times10^{-34})^2}(5.0-2)\times1.6\times10^{-19}}

\beta=8.86\times10^{9}

(a). We need to calculate the tunnel probability for width 0.5 nm

Using formula of tunnel barrier

T=\dfrac{16E(V_{0}-E)}{V_{0}^2}e^{-2\beta a}

Put the value into the formula

T=\dfrac{16\times 2(5.0-2.0)}{5.0^2}e^{-2\times8.86\times10^{9}\times0.5\times10^{-9}}

T=5.45\times10^{-4}

(b). We need to calculate the tunnel probability for width 1.00 nm

T=\dfrac{16\times 2(5.0-2.0)}{5.0^2}e^{-2\times8.86\times10^{9}\times1.00\times10^{-9}}

T=7.74\times10^{-8}

Hence, The tunnel probability for 0.5 nm and 1.00 nm are  5.45\times10^{-4} and 7.74\times10^{-8} respectively.
