The de-Broglie wavelength of a particle of kinetic energy K is , the wavelength of the particle, if its kinetic energy K 4 is
Options
- A2
- B2
- C4
Correct answer
A. 2
Step-by-step solution
de-Broglie wavelength ( ) of the particle in terms of kinetic energy K is given as = h 2 m K where, m is the mass of the particle and h is Planck's constant. Let at wavelength ^ , kinetic energy of particle becomes K^ = K 4 [from Eq. (i)]
