Question

is 7. Calculate the wavelength of 50-g golf ball travelling at 400 m/s. (Calculate answer to 2 significant figures) Neutron diffraction is an important technique for determining the structures of molecules. Calculate the velocity of a neutron with a wavelength of o.088 nm. (mass of neutron-1.675x1o24g) 8. The heat of combustion of glucose is 15.57 kJ/g. A 2.500-g sample of glucose is burned in a bomb calorimeter containing 2.700 kg of water. The temperature of the calorimeter and the water increased from 20.55°C to 23.25°C. What is the heat capacity of the dry calorimeter? 9· 12161

Explanation / Answer

8)

so, we have:

wavelength = 0.088 nm = 8.8*10^-11 m

mass, m = 1.675*10^-24 g

= 1.675*10^-27 kg [using conversion 1 Kg = 1000 g]

we have below equation to be used:

wavelength = Planck constant / (mass*velocity)

8.8*10^-11 = (6.626*10^-34) / (1.675*10^-27*velocity)

velocity = 4.495*10^3 m/s

Answer: 4.5*10^3 m/s
