Wavelength is 6.976 x 10^ -35 m

Explanation:

In this, we can use De Broglie’s equation. This equation is the relationship between De Broglie’s wavelength, velocity and the mass of a moving object. In this equation, we are using plank's constant which is 6.626 x 10^-34 m^2 kg/s.

We know that one mile per hour is equivalent to 0.447 M/S.

And One gram is equivalent to 10^-3 kg.

De Broglie’s wavelength = λ ( wave length) = Plank’s constant/ Mass x velocity

λ ( wave length) = 6.626 x 10^ -34/ (425 x10^-3) x ( 50 x 0.447)

                                 = 6.626 x 10^ -34/ 0. 425 x 22.35

                                 = 6.626 x 10^ -34/ 9.498

                                 = 6.976 x10^ -35 m

So, the wavelength of the football will be 6.976 x 10^ -35 m

valina [46]

Answer:

d) cut the large sized Cu solid into smaller sized pieces

Explanation:

The aim of the question is to select the right condition for that would increases the rate of the reaction.

a) use a large sized piece of the solid Cu

This option is wrong. Reducing the surface area decreases the reaction rate.

b) lower the initial temperature below 25 °C for the liquid reactant, HNO3

Hugher temperatures leads to faster reactions hence this option is wrong.

c) use a 0.5 M HNO3 instead of 2.0 M HNO3

Higher concentration leads to increased rate of reaction. Hence this option is wrong.

d) cut the large sized Cu solid into smaller sized pieces

This leads to an increased surface area of the reactants, which leads to an increased rate of the reaction. This is the correct option.

Solve the quadratic equation 2x^2+13x=15 by method of completing the square<br>​
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

x = 1, -7.5

Explanation:

2x² + 13x = 15

Divide the left side of the equation by 2

2(x² + 6.5x) = 15

Divide 6.5 by 2 and square the quotient

6.5/2 = 3.25

3.25² = 10.5625

Add 10.5625 to the left side

2(x² + 6.5x + 10.5625) = 15

Since you have a 2 outside the parentheses, you will be adding 10.5625•2 to the right side.

10.5625 • 2 = 21.125

2(x² + 6.5x + 10.5625) = 36.125

To factor (x² + 6.5x + 10.5625), add b/2 to x

b/2 = 6.5/2 = 3.25

2(x + 3.25)² = 36.125

Divide by 2

(x + 3.25)² = 18.0625

Square root.

(x + 3.25) = √18.0625

x + 3.25 = ±4.25

Subtract 3.25.

x = 4.25 - 3.25 = 1

x = -4.25 - 3.25 = -7.5

x = 1, -7.5

What is the wavelength of radiation that has a frequency
White raven [17]

Answer:

\lambda = \frac{c}{\nu}

Explanation:

The wavelenght of  a radiation is inversely proportional to its frequency. It can be estimated by the following formula:

\lambda = \frac{c}{\nu}

Where:

  • \lambda is the wavelenght
  • \nu is the frequency
  • c is the speed of light (arroung 300000 km/s)

The density of gas particles in a section of Earth’s atmosphere decreases. Which of the following is the most likely explanation
Bad White [126]
<span>This is due to the fact that the air pressure in that certain section of Earth’s atmosphere decreased. As density of gas particles decreases as air pressure decreases. Therefore, density of gas particles and air pressure have a direct relationship. An increase in air pressure would then effect to an increase in gas particles. </span>
