Answer:
(a) 7.11 x 10⁻³⁷ m
(b) 1.11 x 10⁻³⁵ m
Explanation:
(a) The de Broglie wavelength is given by the expression:
λ = h/p = h/mv
where h is plancks constant, p is momentum which is equal to mass times velocity.
We have all the data required to calculate the wavelength, but first we will have to convert the velocity to m/s, and the mass to kilograms to work in metric system.
v = 19.8 mi/h x ( 1609.34 m/s ) x ( 1 h / 3600 s ) = 8.85 m/s
m = 232 lb x ( 0.454 kg/ lb ) = 105.33 kg
λ = h/ mv = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J·s / ( 105.33 kg x 8.85 m/s ) = 7.11 x 10⁻³⁷ m
(b) For this part we have to use the uncertainty principle associated with wave-matter:
ΔpΔx > = h/4π
mΔvΔx > = h/4π
Δx = h/ (4π m Δv )
Again to utilize this equation we will have to convert the uncertainty in velocity to m/s for unit consistency.
Δv = 0.1 mi/h x ( 1609.34 m/mi ) x ( 1 h/ 3600 s )
= 0.045 m/s
Δx = h/ (4π m Δv ) = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J·s / (4π x 105.33 kg x 0.045 m/s )
= 1.11 x 10⁻³⁵ m
This calculation shows us why we should not be talking of wavelengths associatiated with everyday macroscopic objects for we are obtaining an uncertainty of 1.11 x 10⁻³⁵ m for the position of the fullback.
Answer:
D is the answer may be. I'm not sure.
Geothermal energy is not used more often because it's hard to find geothermal energy sources that are close to the surface (Option A).
<h3>What is Geothermal energy?</h3>
Geothermal energy is a special type of sustainable renewable source of clean energy that emerges from thermal (temperature) differences on the Earth, e.g., within geysers and similar geological formations.
In conclusion, geothermal energy is not used more often because it's hard to find geothermal energy sources that are close to the surface (Option A).

The rate of dissolution of a solid solute into the solution decreases when you stop stirring it. Generally, stirring increases the dissolution rate of a solid into a solution. An example is coffee with sugar, the sugar dissolves faster when stirred versus when left to dissolve on its own.
Out of the following given choice:
A. The increase in
the airspace occupied by vinegar molecules
B. The chemical reaction with nerves, which is slower than
other sensory processes
C. Attractive forces between the air and vinegar molecules
D. Random collisions between the air and vinegar molecules.
<span>The answer is
D. While the particles may be
moving at high velocities even at room
temperatures, the delay is due to the numerous collisions
between the vinegar molecules and the air molecules.This changes the vinegar’s
molecules directions from straight lines to random unpredictable paths</span>
