If the kinetic energy of a particle is increased to 16 times its previous value, the percentage change in the de-Broglie wavelength of the particle is
Options
- A75
- B25
- C50
- D5
Correct answer
A. 75
Step-by-step solution
Kinetic energy k= p² 2 m where p is momentum k ₂ k ₁ = P ₂² P ₁² P ₂ P ₁ = k ₂ k ₁ = 16 =4 de Broglie wavelength = h P ₂ ₁ = P₁ P₂ = 1 4 ₂= ₁ 4 ₁- ₂= 3 4 ₁
