Graph shows the variation of de-Broglie wavelength versus 1 V where V is the accelerating potential for four particles, P, Q, R, S carrying same charge but of mass m₁, m₂, m₃, m₄ . Which one represents a particle of smaller mass?
Options
- Am₄
- Bm₁
- Cm₃
- Dm₂
Correct answer
A. m₄
Step-by-step solution
De-broglie wavelength, = h p Kinetic energy : aligned & K= p^2 2 m =q V & = h 2 m q V aligned Slope of straight line = h 2 m q Hence, more is slope of line, less is the mass.
