The kinetic energy of an electron is E w...

The kinetic energy of an electron is E when the incident wavelength is `lamda` To increase ti KE of the electron to 2E, the incident wavelength must be

A

`2lambda`

B

`lambda//2`

C

`(hc lambda)/(E lambda + hc)`

D

`(hc lambda)/(2E lambda + h c)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
3

`(hc)/(lambda)=w+ErArrw=(hc)/(lambda)-E`
Also, `w=(hc)/(lambda^(1))-2E`
Now, `(hc)/(lambda)-E=(hc)/(lambda^(1))-2E`
`lambda^(1)=(lambdahc)/(hc+lambdaE).`
