Question

The mass of a golf ball is 45.9 g . If it leaves the tee with a speed of 61.0 m/s , what is its corresponding wavelength?

Answer 1

The corresponding wavelength is 2.4×10⁻³⁴ m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Mass of ball = 45.9 g (45.9/1000 = 0.0459 kg)

Speed of ball = 61.0 m/s

Wavelength = ?

Solution:

Formula:

λ = h/mv

λ = wavelength

h = Planck's constant

m = mass

v = velocity

Now we will put the values in formula.

λ = 6.63×10⁻³⁴ kg.m².s⁻¹ / 0.0459 kg ×61.0 m/s

λ = 6.63×10⁻³⁴kg.m².s⁻¹ /2.8 Kg.m/s

λ = 2.4×10⁻³⁴ m

The corresponding wavelength is 2.4×10⁻³⁴ m.
