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 .

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer: D. 0.57

Explanation:

The formula to calculate the eccentricity e of an ellipse is (assuming the moon's orbit in the shape of an ellipse):

e=\frac{r_{a}-r_{p}}{r_{a}+r_{p}}

Where:

r_{a} is the apoapsis (the longest distance between the moon and its planet)

r_{p}=0.27 r_{a} is the periapsis (the shortest distance between the moon and its planet)

Then:

e=\frac{r_{a}-0.27 r_{a}}{r_{a}+0.27 r_{a}}

e=\frac{0.73 r_{a}}{1.27 r_{a}}

e=0.57 This is the moon's orbital eccentricity

There is a moon orbiting an Earth-like planet. The mass of the moon is 9.58 × 1022 kg, the center-to-center separation of the pl
kaheart [24]

Answer:

= 4.38 × 10³⁴kgm²/s

Explanation:

Given that,

mass of moon m = 9.5 × 10²²kg

Orbital radius r = 4.28  × 10⁵km

Orbital period  T = 28.9days

T = 28.9  × 24 × 60 × 60

   = 2,496,960s

Angular momentum of the moon about the planet

L = mvr

L = mr²w

L = mr^2\frac{2\pi }{T} \\\\L = \frac{9.5 \times 10^2^2 \times(4.28\times10^8)^2\times2\times3.14}{2496960} \\\\L = 4.389.5 \times 10^3^4kgm^2/s

Explain, using the kinetic theory of matter, why liquids and solids are more denser than gases
AlekseyPX
Solid and liquids are much more denser than gas because their molecules are close to each other and with that the molecules of them can't move that freely unlike the gas molecules. Also, because of being near to each other the molecules of solid and liquids became heavy making them dense.
