1) 1.05\cdot 10^{-9} m

The wavelength of the matter wave (also called de Broglie wavelength) of an object is given by

\lambda=\frac{h}{mv}

where

h=6.63\cdot 10^{-34} Js is the Planck constant

m is the mass of the object

v is its velocity

For a proton, we have:

m=1.67\cdot 10^{-27} kg

and the velocity of this proton is

v=377 m/s

So, its de Broglie's wavelength is:

\lambda=\frac{6.63\cdot 10^{-34}}{(1.67\cdot 10^{-27})(377)}=1.05\cdot 10^{-9} m

2) 1.11\cdot 10^{-38} m

We can use again the same equation:

\lambda=\frac{h}{mv}

where in this case we have:

m = 159 kg is the mass of the astronaut + spacesuit

v = 377 m/s is the velocity of the astronaut

Substituting into the equation,

\lambda=\frac{6.63\cdot 10^{-34}}{(159)(377)}=1.11\cdot 10^{-38} m

3) 3.70\cdot 10^{-63} m

Similarly, we can use the same equation:

\lambda=\frac{h}{mv}

where in this case we have:m=5.98\cdot 10^{24}kg is the Earth's mass

v=30 km/s = 30000 m/s is the velocity of the Earth around the Sun

Substituting,

\lambda=\frac{6.63\cdot 10^{-34}}{(5.98\cdot 10^{24})(30000)}=3.70\cdot 10^{-63} m

A tank of volume 0.25 ft is designed to contain 50 standard cubic feet of air. The temperature is 80° F.Calculate the pressure i
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

The inside Pressure of the tank is 4499.12 lb/ft^{2}

Solution:

As per the question:

Volume of tank, V = 0.25 ft^{3}

The capacity of tank, V' = 50ft^{3}

Temperature, T' = 80^{\circ}F = 299.8 K

Temperature, T = 59^{\circ}F = 288.2 K

Now, from the eqn:

PV = nRT                      (1)

Volume of the gas in the container is constant.

V = V'

Similarly,

P'V' = n'RT'                       (2)

Also,

The amount of gas is double of the first case in the cylinder then:

n' = 2n

\]frac{n'}{n} = 2

where

n and n' are the no. of moles

Now, from eqn (1) and (2):

\frac{PV}{P'V'} = \frac{nRT}{n'RT'}

P' = 2P\frac{T'}{T} = 2\times 2116\times \frac{299.8}{288.2} = 4499.12 lb/ft^{2}
