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

The ratio of de-Broglie wavelength of an \(\alpha\)-particle and a proton accelerated from rest by the same potential is \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{ m }}\), the value of \(m\) is \(........\)

  1. A \(4\)
  2. B \(16\)
  3. C \(8\)
  4. D \(2\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(8\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\frac{\lambda_\alpha}{\lambda_{ p }}=\frac{ h }{\frac{\sqrt{2 m _\alpha q _\alpha V }}{ h }}\) \(\frac{\sqrt{2 m _{ p } q _{ p } V }}{\lambda_{ p }}=\sqrt{\frac{1}{8}}\) \(m =8\)
