de-Broglie wavelength associated with an...

de-Broglie wavelength associated with an electron accelerated through a potential difference V is `lamda`. What will be its wavelength when the accelerating potential is increased to 4 V?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

As `lamdaprop(1)/(sqrtV)`, hence on increasing accelerating potential from V to 4V, de-Broglie wavelength decreases from `lamda` to `(lamda)/(2)`.
