1. An electron of mass m is moving with kinetic energy k and momentum p. The de-Broglie wavelength associated will be :
(A) \( \lambda = \frac{\sqrt{2mk}}{p} \)
(B) \( \lambda = \frac{p}{h} \)
(C) \( \lambda = \frac{h}{p} \)
(D) \( \lambda = \frac{h}{\sqrt{2mk}} \)
Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

  1. A (A) and (C) only
  2. B (B) and (D) only
  3. C (C) and (D) only
  4. D (A) and (D) only
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) (C) and (D) only

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( \lambda = \frac{h}{p} \) \( k = \frac{p^2}{2m} \Rightarrow p = \sqrt{2mk} \) \( \lambda = \frac{h}{\sqrt{2mk}} \) Options (C) and (D) are correct.
