An electron accelerated through a potential difference has a de-Broglie wavelength of . When the potential is changed to , its de-Broglie wavelength increases by . The value of is equal to :
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
B.
Step-by-step solution
Let initial wavelength be , then after increase wavelength will become .
Now,
Therefore, .
So we can write
and
From both equations, we get
