An astronaut goes to Mars to do some experiments. Explain why her mass stays the same but her weight changes.

Because mass does not change from place to place but weight does change from place to place... why? because weight is the amount of gravitational force on an object and mass is the amount of matter in an object. mars has less gravitational force so an object will weigh less than it really weighs there

A particle (m = 4.3 × 10^-28 kg) starting from rest, experiences an acceleration of 2.4 × 10^7 m/s^2 for 5.0 s. What is its de B

Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Wavelength, $\lambda=1.28\times 10^{-14}\ m$

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the particle, $m=4.3\times 10^{-28}\ kg$

Acceleration of the particle, $a=2.4\times 10^7\ m/s^2$

Time, t = 5 s

It starts from rest, u = 0

The De Broglie wavelength is given by :

$\lambda=\dfrac{h}{mv}$

v = a × t

$\lambda=\dfrac{h}{mat}$

$\lambda=\dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-34}}{4.3\times 10^{-28}\times 2.4\times 10^7\times 5}$

$\lambda=1.28\times 10^{-14}\ m$

Hence, this is the required solution.
