21Finite set — In mathematics, a set is called finite if there is a bijection between the set and some set of the form {1, 2, ..., n} where n is a natural number. (The value n = 0 is allowed; that is, the empty set is finite.) An infinite set is a set which is… …

23finite — 01. Our oil and gas reserves are [finite], so we must take steps to develop alternative energy sources. 02. We have only a [finite] amount of time to work on this, so we d better get started. 03. The [finite] resources we have at hand must be… …
24Finite potential barrier (QM) — In quantum mechanics, the finite potential barrier is a standard one dimensional problem that demonstrates the phenomenon of quantum tunnelling. The problem consists of solving the time independent Schrödinger equation for a particle with a… …
