A proton and an alpha particle are accelerated through the same potential difference. The ratio of the wavelengths associated with the proton to that associated with the alpha particle is

A

`sqrt2:1`

B

`2:1`

C

`2sqrt2:1`

D

`1/(2sqrt2) :1`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`lamda=(h)/(sqrt(2mqV))implieslamdaprop1/(sqrt(mq))`
`(lamda_(p))/(lamda_(alpha))=sqrt((m_(alpha)q_(alpha))/(m_pq_p))=sqrt8=2sqrt2`
