According to de-Brogile, matter should exhibit dual behaviour, that is both particle and wave like properties. However, a cricket ball of mass 100 g does not move like a wave when it is thrown by a b owler at a speed of 100km/h. calculate the wavelength of the ball and explain why it does not show wave nature.

Answer» Given, `m=100g=0.1kg`
`v=100km//h=(100xx1000)/(60xx60)=(1000)/(36)ms^(-1)`
From de-Brogile equation , wavelength `, lambda=(h)/(mv)`
`lambda=(6.626xx10^(-34)kgm^(2) s^(-1))/(0.1kgxx(1000)/(36)ms^(-1))=238.5xx10^(-36)m`
As the wavelength is very small so wave nature cannot be deteched.
