The law of conservation of energy is a law of science that states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, but only changed from one form into another or transferred from one object to another.<span>

Which of the following describes one of the main features of wave-particle duality?
steposvetlana [31]
<h2>Answer:  as mass increases, the wave nature of matter is less easy to observe.</h2>

At the beginning of the 20th century the French physicist Louis De Broglie proposed the existence of matter waves, that is to say that <u>all matter has a wave associated with it.</u>

In this sense, the de Broglie wavelength \lambda is given by the following formula:

\lambda=\frac{h}{p}   (1)

Where:

h is the Planck constant

p is the momentum of the atom, which is given by:

p=m.v (2)

Where:

m is the mass

v is the velocity

Substituting (2) in (1):

\lambda=\frac{h}{m.v}[\tex]   (3)As we can see, if we increase the mass, the wavelength decreases (because [tex]\lambda is inversely proportional to m).

Therefore, if the wavelength decreases the wave nature of matter is less easy to observe.

The other options are incorrect because:

a) as v increases \lambda decreases and the particle nature matter becomes more evident

b) as p decreases \lambda increases and the wave nature matter becomes more evident

c) There is also a relation between the wavelength and the energy E:

\lambda=\frac{hc}{E}

So, as energy increases, the particle nature matter becomes more evident and the wave nature of matter becomes harder to observe

Two billiard balls of identical mass move toward each other. Assume that the collision between them is perfectly elastic. If the
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

-20.0 m/s and 30.0 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved:

m (30.0) + m (-20.0) = m v₁ + m v₂

30.0 − 20.0 = v₁ + v₂

10.0 = v₁ + v₂

Since the collision is perfectly elastic, energy is also conserved.  Since there's no rotational energy or work done by friction, the initial kinetic energy equals the final kinetic energy.

½ m (30.0)² + ½ m (-20.0)² = ½ mv₁² + ½ mv₂²

(30.0)² + (-20.0)² = v₁² + v₂²

1300 = v₁² + v₂²

We now have two equations and two variables.  Solve the system of equations using substitution:

1300 = v₁² + (10 − v₁)²

1300 = v₁² + 100 − 20v₁ + v₁²

0 = 2v₁² − 20v₁ − 1200

0 = v₁² − 10v₁ − 600

0 = (v₁ + 20) (v₁ − 30)

v₁ = -20, 30

If v₁ = -20, v₂ = 30.

If v₁ = 30, v₂ = -20.

So either way, the final velocities are -20.0 m/s and 30.0 m/s.

A 1.15-kg grinding wheel 22.0 cm in diameter is spinning counterclockwise at a rate of 20.0 revolutions per second. When the pow
malfutka [58]

Answer:

Angular acceleration = -1.57 Rad/s^2

Number of revolutions = 800 revolutions

Explanation:

Mass = 1.15kg

diameter of the grinding wheel = 22.0cm

angular speed = 20 rev/s

1 Rev/s = 6.283 rad/s

20 Rev/s = 20 * 6.283 = 125.664 rad/s

Angular acceleration = Angular speed/ time taken for for the wheel rotation

Angular accleration = 125.664/80

Angular acceleration = -1.57 rad/s^2 (since the wheel is rotating counterclockwise)

number of revs = 0.5∝t²

number of revs = 0.5 * (1.57/2π) * 80²

number of revs = 800 revolutions
