How fast is an electron moving if it has a wavelength equal to the distance it travels in one second? (mass of electron `= 9.1 xx 10^(-31)kg`)

Answer» Here `v = lamda`. Hence, `lamda = (h)/(mv) " gives" v^(2) = (h)/(m)`
or `v = sqrt((h)/(m)) = sqrt((6.626 xx 10^(-34))/(9.1 xx 10^(-31))) = 2.698 xx 10^(-2) ms^(-1)`
