The wavelength lambda(e ) of an photon o...

The wavelength `lambda_(e )` of an photon of same energy `E` are related by

A

`lambda_(p) prop lambda_(e )^(2)`

B

`lambda_(p) prop lambda_( e )`

C

`lambda_(p) prop sqrt(lambda_(e ))`

D

`lambda_(p) prop (1)/(sqrt(lambda_(e)))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`lambda_(e) = (h)/(sqrt( 2 mE)) lambda_(e) = (hc)/( E)`
`lambda_(e)^(2) = (h^(2))/( 2m E)`
`lambda_(e)^(2) = (h^(2))/( 2 m (hc)/(lambda_(p))) rArr lambda_( e)^(2) prop lambda_(p)`
