A proton and an \(\alpha\)-particle are accelerated from rest by \(2\,V\) and \(4\,V\) potentials, respectively. The ratio of their de-Broglie wavelength is:
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(4:1\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\lambda=\frac{ h }{ mv }=\frac{ h }{\sqrt{2 mK }}=\frac{ h }{\sqrt{2 mq \Delta V }}\)
\(\frac{\lambda_\alpha}{\lambda_p}=\sqrt{\frac{m_p V_p q_p}{ m _\alpha V_\alpha q_\alpha}}\)
\(\Rightarrow \frac{\lambda_\alpha}{\lambda_p}=\sqrt{\frac{1 \times 2 \times 1}{4 \times 4 \times 2}}=\frac{1}{4}\)
\(\Rightarrow \lambda_p: \lambda_\alpha=4: 1\)
