Question

Compare the de Broglie wavelength of a bullet moving at 700 miles per hour (313 m/s) to that of an alpha particle moving at3.40×107 miles per hour (1.52×107 m/s) and an electron with a speed of 1.30×107 miles per hour (5.81×106 m/s)

 

The table below presents information about different particles, detailing their mass, velocity, and associated wavelength regions. | Particle | Mass (kg) | Velocity (m/s) | Wavelength | Region | |-----------------|--------------------|----------------|------------------|-------------------------------| | bullet | 0.00190 | 313 | | smaller than \(10^{-20}\) m | | alpha particle | \(6.64 \times 10^{-27}\) | \(1.52 \times 10^{7}\) | | | | electron | \(9.11 \times 10^{-31}\) | \(5.81 \times 10^{6}\) | | | ### Explanation: - **Particle**: Indicates the type of particle being observed (bullet, alpha particle, electron). - **Mass (kg)**: The mass of each particle in kilograms. - **Velocity (m/s)**: The speed at which each particle is moving, measured in meters per second. - **Wavelength**: The specific wavelengths associated with these particles are not filled in this table. - **Region**: Indicates the wavelength region classification. For the bullet, it is specified as "smaller than \(10^{-20}\) m". Regions for alpha particle and electron are not specified.
