The wavelength is inversely proportional to the momentum (mass times velocity). Everyday objects - even a speck of dust - are so massive that the wavelength is extremely short - many times smaller than an atom. Only for small objects - for instance, electrons in an electron microscope - can the wave nature of matter become noticeable.

In "daily observation", momentum is very large, and the uncertainty in position is also very large, compared to the amounts that are relevant for the Uncertainty Principle.

∙ 11y agoOur daily observation is of relatively large objects which do not have a visible wave nature. You have to get to the subatomic level before the wave particle duality of nature becomes apparent. The smaller something is, the more uncertainty there is about its location (as per Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle) and consequently, the more it will tend to resemble a wave rather than a particle.

Tiny particles in motion make up all matter?
All matter is made up of 'atoms', which are generally treated as tiny particles, although they have been shown to also have the properties of waves (just like light has both particle and wave nature). They are constantly in motion, and move faster in matter at a higher temperature. The temperature at which this motion is zero is -273C or 0K, absolute zero and is impossible to achieve.
Is all matter in constant motion on earth?
Yes it is
What is the kineti-molecular theory of matter?
the concept that tiny particles in constant, random motion make up all matter
What theory of matter states that all of the particles that make up matter are constantly in motion?
kinetic theory.
How are light and ripples in a pond similar?
Both light and ripples in a pond travel as waves, radiating outward from theoriginal source.Both can exhibit all the characteristics of wave motion, such as reflection,refraction, diffraction, absorption, dispersion, and interference, and thebehavior of both can be described by the same math of wave motion.
Is all matter is in costant motion except for hard object?
No ALL matter is in motion.
What is matter wave?
According to De Broglie all the matter follows both particle nature and wave nature.The wave thus associated with the matter is called a matter wave.
Which wave has a particle motion parallel to a wave motion?
All light waves are made up of particles called photons.

The particles in matter are in at all times?
the particles in matter are in motion at all times. :p
Is all matter constantly in motion?
Yes it is.
How do you motion hello in mandarin?
Because of the merging of all cultures, the universal motion of "hello" is now a wave of the hand.
What are the particles in matter in all the time?
The question's a little sketchy, but I think you're looking for motion. The particles of matter are always in motion.
Is all matter in constant motion on earth?
Yes it is
What is a wave motion gun?
A wave motion gun is a superweapon first used by the Yamato (Argo in starblazers), which could vaporize an entire fleet. It takes the tachyon energy from the Wave Motion Engine and charges it up in the bow of the Yamato. The energy is released instantly when the trigger is pulled by the remote control in the 1st bridge. After the wave motion gun was first used, enemy ships began copying it or making their own wave motion gun. By 2205, it was standard on all ships in the EDF. (not to be confused with shock cannon)
How do you do a kamehameha in real life?
To do a real kamehameha move, you must wave your hands a sertain wave motion with your arms and make to motion with your hand close to your waist, then charge with all your power, then a light blue ball apperes in your set of hand, then shoot it at you foe with RAGE!! See the wave motion on http://www.youtube.com/.
Can all matter cease motion at 0 degrees celsius?
no
