how fast is an electron moving if it has a wavelength equal to the distance traveled in one second ?

A

`sqrt((m)/(h))`

B

`sqrt((h)/(m))`

C

`sqrt((h)/(p))`

D

`sqrt((h)/(2(KE)))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Distance travelled in 1 sec = velocity (v)
Given `lamda = v`. Hence, `lamda = (h)/(mv)` becomes `v = (h)/(mv)`
or `v^(2) = (h)/(m) or v = sqrt((h)/(m))`
