An electron accelerated through a potential difference \(V_1\) has a de-Broglie wavelength of \(\lambda\). When the potential is changed to \(V _2\), its de-Broglie wavelength increases by \(50 \%\). The value of \(\left(\frac{ V _1}{ V _2}\right)\) is equal to :
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(\frac{9}{4}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(KE =\frac{ P ^2}{2 m }, \quad P =\frac{ h }{\lambda}\)
\(eV _1=\frac{\left(\frac{ h }{\lambda}\right)^2}{2 m }\)
\(eV _2=\frac{\left(\frac{ h }{1.5 \lambda}\right)^2}{2 m }\)
\(\frac{ V _1}{ V _2}=(1.5)^2=\frac{9}{4}\)
