Ranking of de Broglie wavelengths from largest to smallest is electron > proton > helium

  • De Broglie proposed that because light has both wave and particle properties, matter exhibits both wave and particle properties. This property has been explained as the dual behavior of matter.
  • From his observations, de Broglie derived the relationship between the wavelength and momentum of matter. This relationship is known as de Broglie's relationship

De Broglie's relationship is given by \lambda=\frac{h}{mv}      .....(1) , where λ  is known as de Broglie wavelength and m is mass , v is velocity , h = Plank’s constant.

From equation (1) wavelength and mass has an inverse relation .

Mass of helium is 4 times the mass of the proton and proton has a greater mass than electron.

According to equation (1) , less the mass higher will be the wavelength

Hence electron having less mass have higher wavelength and then proton and then helium having large mass will have less wavelength .

Thus, order should be electron > proton > helium .

See this suggested solution.

1. Let a force F' is the vector sum of the forces P and Q, then it is shown on the attached picture and marked with red color.

2. according to the condition the force F holds the object, then F should have the same length as the force F' and the opposite direction.

3. using the conditions described in 2. the answer is C.

The temperature of a superconductor is gradually lowered. At the critical temperature, how does the resistivity of the supercond
san4es73 [151]

At critical temperature, the resistivity of the superconductor

B. It suddenly drops to zero

Explanation:

Materials can be classified into three different types depending on their resistance:

  • Conductors: these materials have generally low resistance and allow electricity to pass through easily. The resistance of a conductor increases linearly with the temperature
  • Insulators: these materials do not allow electricity to pass through - so they have very high resistance
  • Semi-conductors: these are materials that are insulators are room temperature, however they becomes conductors when heated. Therefore, the resistance of a semiconductor decreases when the temperature increases
  • Superconductors: these are special materials that are normally conductors; however, at very low temperatures (we are talking about temperature very near to 0 K), their resistance becomes suddenly zero.

Therefore, the correct answer is:

B. It suddenly drops to zero

A waterbed has a force of 1300N on the floor. It exerts 347 Pa of pressure. What is the area of the waterbed?
Sergio [31]

Answer:

Pressure = Force/Area

347 = 1300/Area

Area = 1300/347

area= 3.47m2

What is escape velocity?
olga_2 [115]
<span>It is the lowest velocity which a body must have in order to escape the gravitational attraction of a particular planet or other object.

Every planet has their own corresponding escape velocities. Example - Earth has escape velocity of 11.2 Km/s. It means, if you want to leave the Earth's gravitational field then it's the lowest speed which you need to acquire otherwise you wouldn't do that!

Hope this helps!</span>
