1) 1.05\cdot 10^{-9} m

The wavelength of the matter wave (also called de Broglie wavelength) of an object is given by

\lambda=\frac{h}{mv}

where

h=6.63\cdot 10^{-34} Js is the Planck constant

m is the mass of the object

v is its velocity

For a proton, we have:

m=1.67\cdot 10^{-27} kg

and the velocity of this proton is

v=377 m/s

So, its de Broglie's wavelength is:

\lambda=\frac{6.63\cdot 10^{-34}}{(1.67\cdot 10^{-27})(377)}=1.05\cdot 10^{-9} m

2) 1.11\cdot 10^{-38} m

We can use again the same equation:

\lambda=\frac{h}{mv}

where in this case we have:

m = 159 kg is the mass of the astronaut + spacesuit

v = 377 m/s is the velocity of the astronaut

Substituting into the equation,

\lambda=\frac{6.63\cdot 10^{-34}}{(159)(377)}=1.11\cdot 10^{-38} m

3) 3.70\cdot 10^{-63} m

Similarly, we can use the same equation:

\lambda=\frac{h}{mv}

where in this case we have:m=5.98\cdot 10^{24}kg is the Earth's mass

v=30 km/s = 30000 m/s is the velocity of the Earth around the Sun

Substituting,

\lambda=\frac{6.63\cdot 10^{-34}}{(5.98\cdot 10^{24})(30000)}=3.70\cdot 10^{-63} m

A car is moving at 18 m/s when it accelerates at 8 m/s2 for 2 sec. What is his new velocity ?
ra1l [238]
Vf= at + Vi
Since at = 8m/s2 * 2 = 16m/s2
Vi=18m/s
=>Vf = 16m/s2 + 18m/s = 34m/s
So, the new velocity is 34m/s

Una cuerda es puesta a vibrar 400 veces en 4 segundos Cual es la frecuencia del sonido emitido?
Readme [11.4K]

n = number of vibrations set in the string = 400 vibrations

t = total time taken for "n" vibrations set in the string = 4 second

f = frequency of the sound emitted due to vibrations set in the string


frequency of the sound emitted due to vibrations set in the string is given as

f = n/t

inserting the above values in the above formula

f = 400/4

f = 100 Hz

hence the frequency of sound comes out to be 100 Hz
