Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine which particle, a proton or an electron, has a greater de-Broglie wavelength when both have the same velocity, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the de-Broglie Wavelength Formula**: The de-Broglie wavelength (\( \lambda \)) of a particle is given by the formula: \[ \lambda = \frac{h}{mv} ...
