A photon has a frequency of 5 \times 10^{14} Hz. What is its energy? (Planck's constant $h = 6.626 \times 10^{-34}$ Js)

A photon has an energy of 3.9756 \times 10^{-19} J. What is its wavelength? (Planck's constant $h = 6.626 \times 10^{-34}$ Js, speed of light $c = 3.00 \times 10^8$ m/s)

A photon with a wavelength of 600 nm travels from air (index of refraction ≈ 1) into glass (index of refraction = 1.5). What is the photon's new speed and wavelength in the glass?

An electron has a momentum of 6.626 \times 10^{-24} kg m/s. What is its de Broglie wavelength? (Planck's constant $h = 6.626 \times 10^{-34}$ Js)

Particle A has a mass of $m$ and a velocity of $v$. Particle B has a mass of 2m and a velocity of $v/2$. How do their de Broglie wavelengths compare?

An electron has a kinetic energy of 2.41$\times 10^{-18}$ J. Calculate its de Broglie wavelength, given its mass is 9.11$\times 10^{-31}$ kg and Planck's constant is 6.626$\times 10^{-34}$ Js.

Why is wave-particle duality not readily observed in macroscopic objects like baseballs?
