Not what you're looking for?
Calculate the "deBroglie wavelength" for each of the following:
1. an electron moving at 0.82 times the speed of light...... in meters
2. a 125-g ball moving at a speed of 13.6 m/s.....in meters
3. a 61-kg person walking at a speed of 2.00 km/hr....in meters
These answers explain why macroscopic (large) objects are not ordinarily discussed in terms of their wave-like properties because?
