JEE Mains · Physics · STD 12 - 11. Dual nature of radiation and matter

Proton \((P)\) and electron \((e)\) will have same deBroglie wavelength when the ratio of their momentum is (assume, \(m _{ p }=1849\,m _{ e }\))

  1. A \(1: 43\)
  2. B \(43: 1\)
  3. C \(1: 1849\)
  4. D \(1: 1\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(1: 1\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

De Broglie wavelength is \(\lambda=\frac{h}{ mv }\) \(\lambda_{ p }=\lambda_{ e } \Rightarrow m _{ p } v _{ p }= m _{ e } v _{ e } \Rightarrow p _{ p }= p _{ e }\)
