AI Generated Solution

To find the de Broglie wavelength of electrons accelerated through a potential difference of 25.0 kV, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship for de Broglie wavelength The de Broglie wavelength (\(\lambda\)) is given by the formula: \[ \lambda = \frac{h}{p} \] where \(h\) is Planck's constant and \(p\) is the momentum of the particle. ...
