b]1. Homework Statement [/b]
Consider a particle of mass m incident on a rectangular barrier with a potential
V(x) = V0 for 0 [tex]\leq[/tex] x < w
V(x) = 0 otherwise,
where V0 is a positive constant. The particle has an energy E > V0. Find expressions in terms of E and V0 for the magnitudes of the associated wavenumbers inside and outside the barrier, ki and ko, respectively.
E = p/2m = (h-cross*k)2/2m
Therefore, E = [tex]\frac{(h-cross*k_{o})^{2}}{2m}[/tex] gives k[tex]_{o}[/tex] and
E - V[tex]_{o}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{(h-cross*k_{i})^{2}}{2m}[/tex] gives k[tex]_{i}[/tex].
Am I right?
