Answer:
electron λ = 12.5 nm
, bullet λ = 1.11 10⁻³³ m and golf ball λ = 4.7 10⁻³⁴ m
Explanation:
The Broglie wave duality principle states that all matter has wave and particle properties, it is expressed by the equation
p = h / λ
Where lam is called broglie wavelength
Let's use the definition of momentum
p = mv
Let's calculate the wavelengths
-Electron
mv = h /λ
λ = h / mv
λ = 6.63 10⁻³⁴ / (9.1 10⁻³¹ 5.81 10⁶)
λ = 1.25 10⁻¹⁰ m
λ = 12.5 nm
This is the X-ray region
-bullet
λ = 6.63 10⁻³⁴ / (1.90 10⁻³ 313)
λ = 1.11 10⁻³³ m
It is too small, only particle characteristics are observed
-Golf ball
λ = 6.63 10⁻³⁴ / (4.50 10⁻² 31.3)
λ = 4.7 10⁻³⁴ m
Too small, only particle characteristics are visible
Answer: The correct answer is "radiometric dating".
Explanation:
Radiometric dating: It is a technique which is used to estimate the age of the rocks. In this technique, there is neither daughter product or parent nuclide can leave or enter the material after its formation.
Radioactive atoms are unstable. It decays into stable daughter atom.
Firstly, measure the quantity of the unstable atoms which are left in rock. Then, compare remaining the quantity of the unstable atoms with the quantity of stable daughter atoms in the rock to calculate the passed time since that rock formed.
Therefore, Scientists have been able to estimate the age of our solar system by radiometric dating.
