An electron of mass $m$ has de-Broglie wavelength $\lambda$ when accelerated through potential difference $V$. When a proton of mass $M$ is accelerated through a potential difference of $9V$,the de-Broglie wavelength associated with it will be (Assume that wavelength is determined at low voltage).

  • A
    $\frac{\lambda}{3} \sqrt{\frac{M}{m}}$
  • B
    $\frac{\lambda}{3} \cdot \frac{M}{m}$
  • C
    $\frac{\lambda}{3} \sqrt{\frac{m}{M}}$
  • D
    $\frac{\lambda}{3} \cdot \frac{m}{M}$

An electron of mass $m$ with an initial velocity $\overrightarrow{v}=v_0 \hat{i}$ $(v_0>0)$ enters an electric field $\overrightarrow{E}=-E_0 \hat{k}$. If the initial de Broglie wavelength is $\lambda_0$,the value after time $t$ would be $:-$

An electron of mass $m$ when accelerated through a potential difference $V$ has a de-Broglie wavelength $\lambda$. The de-Broglie wavelength associated with a proton of mass $M$ accelerated through the same potential difference will be:

The de-Broglie wavelength associated with an electron and a proton were calculated by accelerating them through the same potential of $100\, V$. What should nearly be the ratio of their wavelengths? $(m_{P} = 1.00727\, u, m_{e} = 0.00055\, u)$

Assertion $(A):$ $A$ particle of mass $M$ at rest decays into two particles of masses $m_1$ and $m_2$,having non-zero velocities. The ratio of their de-Broglie wavelengths is unity.
Reason $(R):$ Here,we cannot apply the conservation of linear momentum.
