What is the de Broglie wavelength associated with an elector accelerated through a potential difference of 144 V? |
0.0102 nm 1.022 nm 0.0102 m 0.102 nm |
0.0102 m |
The correct answer is Option (3) → 0.0102 nm The De-Broglie wavelength (λ) associated with an electron is - $λ=\frac{h}{\sqrt{2meV}}$ where, e, charge of electron = $1.602×10^{-19}C$ V, accelrating potential difference = 144 V $λ=\frac{h}{\sqrt{2×9.1×10^{-31}×2.3×10^{-17}}}=\frac{6.26×10^{-34}}{6.46×10^{-24}}$ $=0.0102nm$ |
