An electron, an `alpha`-particle and a proton have the same kinetic energy. Which of these particles has the largest de-Broglie wavelength?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine which particle among an electron, an alpha particle, and a proton has the largest de-Broglie wavelength when they all have the same kinetic energy, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write the de-Broglie wavelength formula The de-Broglie wavelength (λ) is given by the formula: \[ \lambda = \frac{h}{p} \] where \(h\) is Planck's constant and \(p\) is the momentum of the particle. ...
