If two particles A and B are moving with the same velocity, but wavelength of A is found to be double than that of B . Which of the following statements are correct?
Options
- ABoth A and B have same mass
- BMass of A is half that of B
- CMass of B is half that of A
- DMass of B is one-fourth that of A
Correct answer
B. Mass of A is half that of B
Step-by-step solution
So according to the De brogli's we know the relation between momentum and wavelength which is λ   =   h mv If both particle have same velocity but when wavelength of A is found to be double than that of B Then relation between mass of both particle is λ A   =   h m A v A λ B   =   h m B v B λ A   =   2 λ B Thus, relation is mass of A particle is half that of B particle
