3 As it appears in Unit 4 Wat you sould now Calculate te de Broglie wavelengt of atter, p Copare te oentu of potons and of atter of te sae wavelengt including calculations using p Interpret electron diffraction patterns as evidence for te wave-lie nature of atter Copare te diffraction patterns produced by potons and electrons Explain te production of atoic absorption and eission spectra, including tose fro etalvapour laps; Interpret spectra and calculate te energy of potons absorbed or eitted, ΔE = f Analyse te absorption of potons by atos in ters of te particle-lie nature of atter te cange in energy levels of te ato due to electrons canging state te frequency and wavelengt of eitted potons, E = f= c Describe te quantised states of te ato in ters of electrons foring standing waves, recognisingtis as evidence of te dual nature of atter De Broglie Wavelengt As it appears in Unit 4 It as been found tat te oentu of particles (atter) is given by p v. De Broglie suggested tat te expression studied in te topic of potoelectric effect, wic was used f to obtain te oentu of a poton, also applied to atter, tat is p v c TSSM 2017 Page 3 of 8

4 By siply rearranging te equation, we can obtain te forula of te de Broglie Wavelengt or tewavelengt of a Matter Wave: p v Were = te de Broglie wavelengt of a particle () 34 = Planc s constant = (Js) p = te oentu of te particle (gs -1 ) = te ass of te particle (g) v = te velocity of te particle (s -1 ) Warning:te Electron-volt value of Planc s constant, tis forula evs, does not applywen using Please note tat atter waves are not noticeable every daybecause te wavelie properties of atter will be noticeable only if te size of te de Broglie wavelengt is coparable to te size of te relevant aperture and obstacle. Review Questions 1. Find te de Broglie wavelengt of te following objects. a. A car wit a ass of1000 g, travelling at speed of b. A 3 g cat waling at 2 s -1. c. Will te car or te cat diffract wen tey pass troug a fully open door (about 1 wide)? Can you notice te wave-lie properties of tese objects.wy or wy not? 2. Calculate te wavelengt of an electron travelling at a speed of s -1. TSSM 2017 Page 4 of 8

5 Alternative forula for de Broglie Wavelengt As it appears in Unit It as been found tatte Kinetic Energy of a particle is given by E v. Rearranging te forula, 2 2E 2E we obtain v. Substituting te derived v into p v. p 2E. Substituting te oentu expression into de Broglie s wavelengt forula, we ave te alternative forula for te de Broglie Wavelengt: 2E Were = te de Broglie wavelengt of a particle () 34 = Planc s constant = (J s) = te ass of te particle (g) E = te Kinetic Energy of te particle (J) Review Questions 3. A 400g tennis ball as inetic energy of 760 J. Wat is te de Broglie wavelengt of tis tennis ball? 4. Calculate te wavelengt of an electron tat as been accelerated fro rest troug a potential 31 difference of 100 V. Te ass of an electron is g. TSSM 2017 Page 5 of 8
