4.3 A particle with mass m and energy E is moving in one dimensionfrom right to left. It is incident on the step potential V(x) = 0 forx < 0 and V(x) Vo for x 0, where Vo > 0, as shown on thediagram. The energy of the particle is E > Vo.=V(x)V = VoV=0x = 0(a) Solve the Schrödinger equation to derive 4(x) for x < 0 andx>0. Express the solution in terms of a single unknown constant.(b) Calculate the value of the reflection coefficient R for the parti-cle.
