pation probability is given by P

Using a common denominator and a little algebra yields
f =

e
−∆E/kT

.
The solution for e
−∆E/kT
is
e

We take the natural logarithm of both sides and solve for T . The result is
T =

.
(a) Letting f equal 0.01, we evaluate the expression for T :
T =
(1.00 eV)(1.60

(1.38

(b) We set f equal to 0.10 and evaluate the expression for T :
T =
(1.00 eV)(1.60
