A particle of mass \(2 \times 10^{-27} \mathrm{~kg}\) has de-Broglie wavelength of \(3.3 \times 10^{-10} \mathrm{~m}\). The kinetic energy of this particle is
(Plank's Constant \(\left.\mathrm{h}=6.6 \times 10^{-34} \mathrm{~J}-\mathrm{s}\right)\)

  1. A \(5 \times 10^{-20} \mathrm{~J}\)
  2. B \(8 \times 10^{-20} \mathrm{~J}\)
  3. C \(1 \times 10^{-21} \mathrm{~J}\)
  4. D \(6 \times 10^{-22} \mathrm{~J}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(1 \times 10^{-21} \mathrm{~J}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

As \(\lambda=\frac{\mathrm{h}}{\mathrm{P}} \Rightarrow \lambda=\frac{\mathrm{h}}{\sqrt{2 \mathrm{~m}(\mathrm{~K} . \mathrm{E})}} \Rightarrow \mathrm{K} \cdot \mathrm{E}=\frac{\mathrm{h}^2}{2 \mathrm{~m} \lambda^2}\) So, K.E…
