The ratio of the de-Broglie wavelengths associated with protons accelerated through a potential of 128 V and alpha particles accelerated through a potential of 64 V will be

  1. A \(1:2\)
  2. B \(1:4\)
  3. C \(2:1\)
  4. D \(4:1\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(2:1\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( \lambda = \frac{h}{\sqrt{2mqV}} \) \( \frac{\lambda_p}{\lambda_{\alpha}} = \sqrt{\frac{m_{\alpha}q_{\alpha}V_{\alpha}}{m_pq_pV_p}} \) \( \frac{\lambda_p}{\lambda_{\alpha}} = \sqrt{\frac{(4m_p)(2q_p)(64 \, \text{V})}{(m_p)(q_p)(128 \, \text{V})}} \)…
