The ratio of the wavelengths associated with electrons accelerated with the potentials of 64 V and 81 V, respectively is |
1 : 1 9 : 4 9 : 8 8 : 9 |
9 : 8 |
The correct answer is Option (3) → 9 : 8 $\text{Given: Electron accelerated through potentials } V_1 = 64~\text{V},~ V_2 = 81~\text{V}$ $\text{De Broglie wavelength: } \lambda = \frac{h}{p} = \frac{h}{\sqrt{2 m e V}}$ $\text{Ratio of wavelengths: } \frac{\lambda_1}{\lambda_2} = \sqrt{\frac{V_2}{V_1}}$ $\frac{\lambda_1}{\lambda_2} = \sqrt{\frac{81}{64}} = \frac{9}{8}$ $\text{Answer: } \frac{\lambda_1}{\lambda_2} = \frac{9}{8}$ |
