An α particle and a proton are accelerated from rest by a potential difference of 200 V . After this, their de Broglie wavelengths are λ α and λ p respectively. The ratio λ p λ α is :
Options
- A8
- B3 . 8
- C2 . 8
- D7 . 8
Correct answer
C. 2 . 8
Step-by-step solution
λ = h p = h 2 m q V ⇒ λ p λ α = m α q α m p q p = 4 m p × 2 e m p × e = 8 = 2 2 = 2 2 ⇒ λ p λ α = 2 × 1 . 4 = 2 . 8
