How to Calculate and Solve for Mass | De Broglie’s Law

Last Updated on July 22, 2021

The image above represents mass.

To compute for mass, three essential parameters are needed and these parameters are Planck’s Constant (h), Wavelength (λ) and Velocity (v).

The formula for calculating the mass:

m = h / λv

Where;

m = mass
λ = wavelength
h = Planck’s constant
v = velocity

Let’s solve an example;
Find the mass when the wavelength is 4, the planck’s constant is 6.626e-34 and the velocity is 2.

This implies that;

λ = wavelength = 4
h = Planck’s constant = 6.626e-34
v = velocity = 2

m = hλv
m = 6.62607004e-34(4)(2)
m = 6.62607004e-34(8)
m = 8.28e-35

Therefore, the mass is 8.28e-35 kg.

Nickzom Calculator – The Calculator Encyclopedia is capable of calculating the mass.
