One of the reasons that quantum mechanics can seem so shocking is that quantum behavior is not readily apparent in our everyday life. as an example, assume that you are a particle of mass 65 kg. according to planck, you should have an associated wavelength. but you don't really seem to act like a wave: for example, you can pass through a doorway without diffracting. to explore whether this contradicts quantum mechanics, consider the doorway to be 1 m wide, and also consider that diffraction effects are only substantial when the wavelength is at least comparable to the width of the opening. given this, what is the largest speed at which you could pass through the doorway and experience diffraction?

Acylinder with a movable piston contains 11.7 moles of a monatomic ideal gas at a pressure of 1.32×10^5 pa. the gas is initially at a temperature of 300 k. an electric heater adds 43200 j of energy into the gas while the piston moves in such a way that the pressure remains constant. cp=20.79 j k^−1 mol^−1 for a monatomic ideal gas, and that the number of gas molecules is equal to avogadro's number (6.022×10^23) times the number of moles of the gas. (a) what is the temperature of the gas after the energy is added? (b) what is the change in volume of the gas? (c) how much work is done by the gas during this process?

Asheet of steel 1.5 mm thick has nitrogen atmospheres on both sides at 1200oc and is permitted to achieve a steady-state diffusion condition. the diffusion coefficient for nitrogen in steel at this temperature is 6 x 10- 11 m2 /s, and the diffusion flux is found to be 1.2 x 10-7 kg/m2 -s. also, it is known that the concentration of nitrogen in the steel at the high-pressure surface is 4 kg/m3 . how far into the sheet from this high-pressure side will the concentration be 2.0 kg/m3 ? assume a linear concentration profile.
