The velocity of a particle \(A\) is 3 times the velocity of proton. If the ratio of the de Broglie wavelengths of the particle \(\mathrm{A}\) and the proton is 3:2, the mass of the particle \(\mathrm{A}\) is
( \(\mathrm{m}_{\mathrm{p}}\) - mass of proton)

  1. A \(\frac{2}{9} \mathrm{~m}_{\mathrm{p}}\)
  2. B \(\frac{2}{3} \mathrm{~m}_{\mathrm{p}}\)
  3. C \(\frac{2}{5} \mathrm{~m}_{\mathrm{p}}\)
  4. D \(\frac{2}{7} \mathrm{~m}_{\mathrm{p}}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\frac{2}{9} \mathrm{~m}_{\mathrm{p}}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

De-Broglie wavelength \(\lambda=\frac{\mathrm{h}}{\mathrm{p}}\) or \(\lambda \propto \frac{1}{\mathrm{mv}}\)…
