What is the approximate transmission probability (in %) of an electron with total energy 1.3 eV through a barrier of thickness 586 pm, and a potential height of 2.367 eV? (Does it matter what the potential energy is before and after the barrier? Not for this approximation, as long as it is <1.3 eV, so in both cases there is a travelling wave.
