The potential energy of a particle of ma...

The potential energy of a particle of mass m is given by `U(x){{:(E_(0),,,0lexlt1),(0,,,xgt1):}`
`lambda_(1)` and `lambda_(2)` are the de-Broglie wavelength of the particle, when `0le x le1` and `x gt 1` respectively. If the total energy of particle is `2E_(0)`, then the ratio `(lambda_(1))/(lambda_(2))` will be

A

1

B

2

C

1

D

`1//2`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`K.E=2E_(0)-E_(0)=E_(0)` (for `0 let x le 1`)
`lamda_(1)=h/(sqrt(2mE_(0)))`
`lamda_(2)=h/(sqrt(mE_(0))),(lamda_(1))/(lamda_(2))=sqrt(2)`
