Show that the wavelength of a particle of mass $m$ and kinetic energy $K$ is $\lambda = \frac{h}{\sqrt{2mK}}$. The de Broglie wavelength of a particle is $\lambda = \frac{h}{p}$, where $p$ is the momentum of the particle. 2: Express the momentum in terms of kinetic energy For a nonrelativistic particle, $K = \frac{p^2}{2m}$. Solving for $p$, we have $p = \sqrt{2mK}$. 3: Substitute the momentum into the de Broglie wavelength $\lambda = \frac{h}{p} = \frac{h}{\sqrt{2mK}}$. If you need help with something else or

The final answer is: $\boxed{2.2}$

Verify that the mass defect of the deuteron $\Delta M_d$ is approximately 2.2 MeV. The mass defect $\Delta M_d$ of the deuteron is given by $\Delta M_d = M_p + M_n - M_d$, where $M_p$, $M_n$, and $M_d$ are the masses of the proton, neutron, and deuteron, respectively. Step 2: Find the masses of the particles The masses of the particles are approximately: $M_p = 938.27$ MeV, $M_n = 939.57$ MeV, and $M_d = 1875.61$ MeV. Step 3: Calculate the mass defect $\Delta M_d = M_p + M_n - M_d = 938.27 + 939.57 - 1875.61 = 2.23$ MeV. Step 4: Compare with the given value The calculated value of $\Delta M_d \approx 2.23$ MeV is approximately equal to 2.2 MeV. 2: Express the momentum in terms of kinetic
