The correct Answer is:
To find the wavelength of a particle with a given mass and velocity, we can use the de Broglie wavelength formula: \[ \lambda = \frac{h}{p} \] where: - \(\lambda\) is the wavelength, - \(h\) is the Planck's constant (\(6.626 \times 10^{-34} \, \text{Js}\)), - \(p\) is the momentum of the particle. The momentum \(p\) can be calculated using the formula: \[ p = m \cdot v \] where: - \(m\) is the mass of the particle, - \(v\) is the velocity of the particle. ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Identify the given values:** - Mass of the particle, \(m = 10^{-31} \, \text{kg}\) - Velocity of the particle, \(v = 10^{5} \, \text{ms}^{-1}\) 2. **Calculate the momentum \(p\):** \[ p = m \cdot v = (10^{-31} \, \text{kg}) \cdot (10^{5} \, \text{ms}^{-1}) = 10^{-26} \, \text{kg m/s} \] 3. **Substitute the values into the de Broglie wavelength formula:** \[ \lambda = \frac{h}{p} = \frac{6.626 \times 10^{-34} \, \text{Js}}{10^{-26} \, \text{kg m/s}} \] 4. **Perform the calculation:** \[ \lambda = 6.626 \times 10^{-34} \div 10^{-26} = 6.626 \times 10^{-34 + 26} = 6.626 \times 10^{-8} \, \text{m} \] 5. **Final result:** \[ \lambda \approx 6.6 \times 10^{-8} \, \text{m} \] ### Conclusion: The wavelength of the particle is approximately \(6.6 \times 10^{-8} \, \text{m}\).
