Concept explainers
To Compare: The de Broglie wavelength and diameter of the given baseball.
Explanation of Solution
Given data:
Diameter of baseball,
Velocity of the baseball,
Average mass of baseball,
Formula used:
de Broglie wavelength of the baseball can be obtained by:
Here, h is the Planck’s constant, m is the mass and v is the velocity of the baseball.
Calculation:
de Broglie wavelength of the baseball:
The ratio of de Broglie wavelength of the baseball and its diameter is:
Conclusion:
The de-Broglie wavelength is
