The wave nature of matter was first proposed by Louis de Broglie, who suggested that the wavelength of a particle was related to its mass (m) and its velocity by the equation: where h is Plancks constant Calculate the de Broglie wavelength of: (a) a 0.0459- kg golf ball traveling at (b) an electron traveling at Can you explain why the wave nature of matter is significant for the electron but not for the golf ball? (Hint: Express mass in kilograms.)
