An electron accelerated through a potential difference $V_1$ has a de-Broglie wavelength of $\lambda$. When the potential is changed to $V_2$, its de-Broglie wavelength increases to $2\lambda$. The value of $(V_1/V_2)$ is equal to

The additional energy that should be given to an electron to reduce its de-Broglie wavelength from $1 \ nm$ to $0.5 \ nm$ is

The de-Broglie wavelength of a particle moving with a velocity $2.25 \times 10^8\, m/s$ is equal to the wavelength of a photon. The ratio of the kinetic energy of the particle to the energy of the photon is (velocity of light is $3 \times 10^8\, m/s$). (in $/8$)

$A$ proton and an electron are associated with the same de-Broglie wavelength. The ratio of their kinetic energies is:
(Assume $h=6.63 \times 10^{-34} \ J \ s$,$m_{e}=9.0 \times 10^{-31} \ kg$ and $m_{p}=1836 \times m_{e}$)

Electrons are accelerated through a potential difference of $16 \ kV$. If the potential difference is increased to $64 \ kV$,then the de-Broglie wavelength associated with the electron will
