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

The de-Broglie wavelength of an electron is the same as that of a photon. If velocity of electron is \(25 \%\) of the velocity of light, then the ratio of \(K.E.\) of electron and \(K.E.\) of photon will be:

  1. A \(\frac{1}{1}\)
  2. B  \(\frac{1}{8}\)
  3. C  \(\frac{8}{1}\)
  4. D  \(\frac{1}{4}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B)  \(\frac{1}{8}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

For photon \(\mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{p}}=\frac{\mathrm{hc}}{\lambda_{\mathrm{p}}} \Rightarrow \lambda_{\mathrm{p}}=\frac{\mathrm{hc}}{\mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{p}}}\) For electron…
