The atomic masses of helium and neon are $4.0$ and $20.0 \ amu$ respectively. The value of the de Broglie wavelength of helium gas at $-73^{\circ} C$ is $M$ times the de Broglie wavelength of neon at $727^{\circ} C$. The value of $M$ is

According to de Broglie,matter should exhibit dual behaviour,that is both particle and wave-like properties. However,a cricket ball of mass $100 \ g$ does not move like a wave when it is thrown by a bowler at a speed of $100 \ km/h$. Calculate the wavelength of the ball and explain why it does not show wave nature.
