The de Broglie wavelengths of a proton and an \(\alpha\) particle are \(\lambda\) and \(2 \lambda\) respectively. The ratio of the velocities of proton and \(\alpha\) particle will be _______.

  1. A \(1: 8\)
  2. B \(1: 2\)
  3. C \(4: 1\)
  4. D \(8: 1\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(8: 1\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\lambda= \frac{\mathrm{h}}{\mathrm{p}}=\frac{\mathrm{h}}{\mathrm{mv}} \Rightarrow \mathrm{v}=\frac{\mathrm{h}}{\mathrm{m} \lambda}\)…
