The image above represents wavelength.
To compute for wavelength, three essential parameters are needed and these parameters are Planck’s Constant (h), Mass (m) and Velocity (v).
The formula for calculating wavelength:
λ = h⁄mv
Where
λ = wavelength
h = Planck’s constant
m = mass
v = velocity
Let’s solve an example;
Find the wavelength when the planck’s constant is 6.62e-34, the mass is 21 and the velocity is 11.
This implies that;
h = Planck’s constant = 6.62e-34
m = mass = 21
v = velocity = 11
λ = h⁄mv
λ = 6.62607004e-34⁄(21)(11)
λ = 6.62607004e-34⁄(231)
λ = 2.86e-36
Therefore, the wavelength is 2.86e-36 m.
Calculating the Mass when the Wavelength, the Planck’s Constant and the Velocity is Given.
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 18, the planck’s constant is 6.626e-34 and the velocity is 6.
This implies that;
λ = wavelength = 18
h = Planck’s constant = 6.626e-34
v = velocity = 6
m = h / λv
m = 18 / 6.626e-34 x 6
m = 18 / 3.976e-33
m = 4.53
Therefore, the mass is 4.53 m.
Calculating the Velocity when the Wavelength, the Planck’s Constant and the Mass is Given.
v = h / λm
Where;
v = velocity
λ = wavelength
h = Planck’s constant
m = mass
Let’s solve an example;
Find the velocity when the wavelength is 20, the planck’s constant is 10 and the mass is 4.
This implies that;
λ = wavelength = 20
h = Planck’s constant = 10
m = mass = 4
v = h / λm
v = 20 / 10 x 4
v = 20 / 40
v = 0.5
Therefore, the velocity is 0.5.
