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:

  • A
    $\frac{\lambda_{0} \sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{1 + \frac{e^{2} E_{0}^{2} t^{2}}{m^{2} v_{0}^{2}}}}$
  • B
    $\frac{\lambda_{0}}{\sqrt{2 + \frac{e^{2} E_{0}^{2} t^{2}}{m^{2} v_{0}^{2}}}}$
  • C
    $\frac{\lambda_{0}}{\sqrt{1 + \frac{e^{2} E_{0}^{2} t^{2}}{2 m^{2} v_{0}^{2}}}}$
  • D
    $\frac{\lambda_{0}}{\sqrt{1 + \frac{e^{2} E_{0}^{2} t^{2}}{m^{2} v_{0}^{2}}}}$
