The wavelength lamda(e) of an electron a...

The wavelength `lamda_(e)` of an electron and `lamda_(p)` of a photon of same energy E are related by

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`lamda=h/(mv)`
`lamda=h/(sqrt(2mE))" "(becauseE=1/2mv^2)`
`lamda_e=h/(sqrt(2m_eE))" "...(i)`
`lamda_p=(hc)/E" "...(ii)`
From (i) and (ii)
`lamda_p prop lamda_e^2`

The de-Broglie wavelength of an electron is same as the wavelength of a photon. The energy of a photon is ‘x’ times the K.E. of the electron, then ‘x’ is: (m-mass of electron, h-Planck’s constant, c - velocity of light)

Assertion : If the wavelength lamda of photon and de Broglie wavelength of electron are same , their energy is also same. Reason : Momentum of both the particles is same by de Broglie hypothesis.

Momentum of a photon of wavelength lamda is

Show that the do Broglie wavelength lamda of an electron of energy E is given by the relation lamda = =h/(sqrt2mE)

According to de-Broglie hypothesis, the wavelength associated with moving electron of mass 'm' is 'lambda_(e)' . Using mass energy relation and Planck's quantum theory, the wavelength associated with photon is 'lambda_(p)' . If the energy (E) of electron and photonm is same, then relation between lambda_e and 'lambda_(p)' is
