The wavelength of the golf ball is <u>2.328×10⁻³⁴m.</u>

All moving particles with mass have a matter wave associated with it. These matter waves are called deBroglie waves.

The deBroglie wavelength λ of a particle is given by,

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

Here, h is the Planck's constant, m is the mass of the ball and v is its velocity.

Calculate the deBroglie wavelength of the moving golf ball by substituting 6.626×10⁻³⁴J s for h, 45.9×10⁻³kg for m and 62.0 m/s for v.

$\lambda=\frac{h}{mv}\\ =\frac{6.626*10^-^3^4Js}{(45.9*10^-^3kg)(62.0m/s)} \\ =2.328*10^-^3^4m$

The wavelength of the golf ball is <u>2.328×10⁻³⁴m.</u>

M (b) Calculate the speed of an electron that is accelerated through the same electric potential difference.

MaRussiya [10]

The speed of a electron that is accelerated from rest through an electric potential difference of 120 V is $6.49\times10^6m/s$

<h3>How to calculate the speed of the electron?</h3>

We know, that the energy of the system is always conserved.

Using the Law of Conservation of energy,

$\triangle K+\triangle$ U=0

Here, K is the kinetic energy and U is the potential energy.

Now, substituting the formula of U and K, we get:

$(\frac{1}{2} mv^2)+(-q\triangle V)$ =0------(1)

Here,

m is the mass of the electron

v is the speed of the electron

q is the charge on the electron

V is the potential difference

Let $v_f$ and $v_i$ represent the final and initial speed.

Here, $v_i$ =0

Solving for $v_f$ , we get:

$v_f=\sqrt{\frac{-2q\triangle V}{m} }$

$=\sqrt{\frac{2\times1.602\times10^{-19}\times 120}{9.109\times10^{-31}} }$

=6.49 $\times10^6$ m/s

A government agency estimated that air bags have saved over 14,000 lives as of April 2004 in the United States. (They also state

balu736 [363]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to momentum, momentum and Force. Mathematically the Impulse can be described as

$I = F*t$

Where,

F= Force

t= time

At the same time the moment can be described as a function of mass and velocity, that is

$P = m\Delta v \rightarrow P=m(v_1-v_2)$

Where,

m = mass

v = Velocity

From equilibrium the impulse is equal to the momentum, therefore

$I = p$

$Ft = m(v_1-v_2)$

PART A) Since the body ends at rest, we have the final speed is zero, so the momentum would be

$p=m(v_1-v_2)$

$p = 75*0.15$

$p = 1125Kg\cdot m/s$

Therefore the magnitude of the person's impulse is 1125Kg.m/s

PART B) From the equation obtained previously we have that the Force would be:

$Ft = m(v_1-v_2)$

$F(0.025)= 1125$

$F= 45000N$

Therefore the magnitude of the average force the airbag exerts on the person is 45000N

Start with 2,000 grams.
After 1 half-life, 1,000 grams are left.
After another half-life, 500 are left.
After another half-life, 250 are left.
After another half-life, 125 are left.

That was FOUR half-lifes.
