A particle is travelling 4 times as fast as an electron. Assuming the ratio of de-Broglie wavelength of a particle to that of electron is 2 : 1 , the mass of the particle is :-
Options
- A1 16 times the mass of e -
- B8 times the mass of e -
- C16 times the mass of e -
- D1 8 times the mass of e -
Correct answer
D. 1 8 times the mass of e -
Step-by-step solution
λ = h p λ p λ e = p e p p = m e v e m p V p 2 = m e m p v e 4 v e ∴   m p = m e 8
