$A$ proton and a photon both have the same energy of $E = 100 \,keV$. If the de Broglie wavelength of the proton is $\lambda_1$ and that of the photon is $\lambda_2$,then $\lambda_1/\lambda_2$ is proportional to:

  • A
    $E^{-1/2}$
  • B
    $E^{1/2}$
  • C
    $E^{-1}$
  • D
    $E$

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 by $50 \%$. The value of $\left(\frac{V_1}{V_2}\right)$ is equal to :

According to the de-Broglie hypothesis,the wavelength associated with a moving electron of mass $m$ is $\lambda_e$. Using the mass-energy relation and Planck's quantum theory,the wavelength associated with a photon is $\lambda_p$. If the energy $(E)$ of the electron and the photon is the same,then the relation between $\lambda_e$ and $\lambda_p$ is:

What is the de Broglie wavelength associated with
$(a)$ an electron moving with a speed of $5.4 \times 10^{6} \; m/s$,and
$(b)$ a ball of mass $150 \; g$ travelling at $30.0 \; m/s$?

What is the theoretical formula for the de-Broglie wavelength of a particle?

An electron (mass $m$) with initial velocity $\overrightarrow{v} = v_{0} \hat{i} + v_{0} \hat{j}$ is in an electric field $\overrightarrow{E} = -E_{0} \hat{k}$. If $\lambda_{0}$ is the initial de-Broglie wavelength of the electron,its de-Broglie wavelength at time $t$ is given by:
