The de Broglie wavelength of a particle moving with a speed of \(0.8 \mathrm{c}\) is equal to the wavelength of a photon. If \(\mathrm{c}\) is speed of the photon in vacuum, the ratio of the energy of the photon and the kinetic energy of the particle is

  1. A \(2: 3\)
  2. B 5:2
  3. C 4:5
  4. D 3:5
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 5:2

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

(b) de Brogle wavelength of a particle \(=\) wavelength of a photon \[ \begin{aligned} & \frac{\mathrm{h}}{\mathrm{mv}}=\lambda \\ & \Rightarrow \lambda=\frac{\mathrm{h}}{0.8 \mathrm{~cm}} \end{aligned} \] Energy of photon \(=\frac{\mathrm{hc}}{\lambda}\) Kinetic energy of the…
