If a particle is dropped from a height X. The de-Broglie wavelength of the particle as a function of height is proportional to :

  1. A \( \sqrt{X} \)
  2. B \( X^{-1/2} \)
  3. C \( X^0 \)
  4. D \( X \)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \( X^{-1/2} \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(v = \sqrt{2gX}\) \(p = mv = m\sqrt{2gX}\) \(\lambda = \frac{h}{p} = \frac{h}{m\sqrt{2gX}}\) \(\lambda \propto X^{-1/2}\)
