Question:

Two particles A1 and A2 of masses m1 and m2 (m1>m2) have the same de broglie wave-length. Then :

Options:

their momenta are the same

their energies are the same

energy of A1 is less than the energy of A2

energy of A2 is less than the energy of A1

Correct Answer:

energy of A1 is less than the energy of A2

Explanation:

Use :

\(\lambda\) = \(\frac{h}{p}\) ⇒ p = \(\frac{h}{\lambda}\)

E = \(\frac{1}{2}\) \(\frac{p^2}{m}\)
