Electron and proton are moving with the same speed, which will have more wvalength?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Wavelength `lambda prop 1/(sqrtm)`
As mass of electrons is less than the mass of protons. So, electrons have more wavelength than protons if electrons and protons are moving with same speed.
