Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(8.25 \times 10^{-11} \mathrm{m}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The de-Broglie wavelength, \(\lambda=\frac{h}{\sqrt{2 m k}}\) Given, \[ h=6.6 \times 10^{-34} \mathrm{J}-\mathrm{s} \] \[ \begin{aligned} m &=1 \times 10^{-30} \mathrm{kg} \\ K=200 \mathrm{eV} &=200 \times 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \mathrm{J} \end{aligned} \] Substituting all these…
