A particle is droped from a height H. The de-broglie wavelength of the particle as a function of height is proportional to

A

`H`

B

`H^(1//2)`

C

`H^(0)`

D

`H^(-1//2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Velocity of a body falling from a height `H` is given by `v=sqrt(2gH)`
We know that de-broglie wavelength `lambda=h/(mv)=h/(msqrt(2gH)) rArr =h/(msqrt(2g)sqrtH)`
Here,`h/(msqrt2g)` is a constant `phi` say `K`
So, `lambda=K1/sqrtH rArr prop 1/sqrtH rArrlambda prop H^(-1//2)`
