At very low temperature, the de Broglie wavelengths of the atoms in a gas can become larger than the distance between atoms, which leads to new states of matter. In an early study, a gas of 23Na was cooled to 200 nK. What is the de Broglie wavelength of the sodium atoms at this temperature? To get a sense of scale, at everyday temperatures and pressures, the distance between air molecules is about 3 nm. How does the de Broglie wavelength compare to this distance? (The gas in the study was much more diffuse than this, but the atoms were close enough for some overlap.)
1. What is the wavelength of a radio photon from an AM radio station that broadcasts at 1470 kilohertz? Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units. 2. What is the energy of a radio photon from the same station? Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units. For question 1 I am not sure how to solve it because the frequency is in kilohertz and I don't know how to convert it into something that I can use. For the speed of light in this question, would it be best to use 3 x 10^8 m/s or 3 x 10^5 km/s? For question 2 I have the formula to use, I'm just uncertain of how to use it.
