Calculate the de broglie wavelength (in picometers) of a hydrogen atom traveling at 440 m/s.

Physics

De broglie wavelength, \lambda = \frac{h}{mv}, where h is the Planck's constant,  m is the mass and v is the velocity.

h = 6.63*10^{-34}

Mass of hydrogen atom,  m = 1.67*10^{-27}kg

v = 440 m/s

Substituting

   Wavelength \lambda = \frac{h}{mv} = \frac{6.63*10^{-34}}{1.67*10^{-27}*440} = 0.902 *10^{-9}m = 902 *10^{-12}m

1 pm = 10^{-12}m\\ \\ So , \lambda =902 pm

So  the de broglie wavelength (in picometers) of a hydrogen atom traveling at 440 m/s is 902 pm

Stop to Think 7.1 Which one is greater- the attraction of the Earth on 1 kg lead or the attraction of 1 kg of led
Daniel [21]

Answer:

1 kg lead to earth is greater attraction as mass of earth is much more than 1kg lead.

Explanation:

Objects with more mass have more gravity. Gravity also gets weaker with distance. So, the closer objects are to each other, the stronger their gravitational pull is. Earth's gravity comes from all its mass

A knight moves on a chessboard two squares up, down, left, or right followedby one square in one of the two directions perpendic
Contact [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Check attachment for solution.

Generally the movement of the knight is L, i.e (2,1), (1,2),(-1,2),(1,-2) etc.

So using Pythagoras theorem

x^2+y^2=1^2+2^2

x^2+y^2=5

Then, the knight will make one movement when the displacement is √5.

So let take a look at other positions

(1,0),(0,1),(-1,0), (0,-1).

Then, for us to have this kind of movement, the knight has to make 3 movements.

When the displacement is 1, then it will make 3 movement.

Let examine other positions

(2,2) or(-2,-2) or (2,-2) or (-2,2)

When the displacement is √8

Then, the movement of the knight is 4.

Let examine other points

(2,0) or (0,2) or (-2,0) or (0,-2)

When the displacement is 2.

The knight make 2 movement

What is theory of electromagnetism?​
Soloha48 [4]

Explanation:

Electromagnetism is a branch of physics involving the study of the electromagnetic force, a type of physical interaction that occurs between electrically charged particles. The electromagnetic force is carried by electromagnetic fields composed of electric fields and magnetic fields, and it is responsible for electromagnetic radiation such as light.
