The voltage applied to an electron microscope to produce electrons of wavelength \(0.50 Å\) is

  1. A \(602 \mathrm{~V}\)
  2. B \(50 \mathrm{~V}\)
  3. C \(138 \mathrm{~V}\)
  4. D \(812 \mathrm{~V}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(602 \mathrm{~V}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, wavelength of electron, \(\lambda=0.5 Å\) By using de-Broglie wavelength, \[ \lambda=\frac{h}{\sqrt{2 m e V}} \] where, \(h\) is Planck's constant \(=6.63 \times 10^{-34} \mathrm{~J}-\mathrm{s}\), \(m\) is mass of electron, \(e\) is charge of electron and \(V\) is applied…
