Given :-
Mass of dust particle, m = 1 micro gram = 10-6gm = 10-9kg
Width of infinite potential well, a = 0.1 mm = 10-4 m
Speed of dust particle, v = 10-6 m /s.
We know that
E = (n2 h2) / [8 m a2]
So, (1/2) m v2 = (n2 h2) / [8 m a2]
So, n2 = [4 m2 v2 a2] / (h2)
So, n = (2 m v a) / h
So, n = [2 x (10-9 kg) (10-6 m/s) (10-4 m)] /
(6.6 x 10-34 J.s)
So, n = 3 x 1014
Thus the quantum number associated with this motion is very large. So this result
does not support the quantization of the energy.
