The de Broglie wavelength of a proton accelerated by a potential difference of $100 \ V$ is $\lambda_0$. If an alpha particle is accelerated by the same potential difference,its de Broglie wavelength will be:

An electron of mass $m$ and a photon have the same energy $E$. The ratio of the de-Broglie wavelengths associated with them is ($c$ = velocity of light in air).

The energy of a photon is equal to the kinetic energy of a proton. If $\lambda_1$ is the de-Broglie wavelength of the proton,$\lambda_2$ is the wavelength associated with the photon,and the energy of the photon is $E$,then $(\lambda_1 / \lambda_2)$ is proportional to

If the velocity of a free electron is doubled,the change in its de Broglie wavelength will be ...

The de-Broglie wavelength of an electron is the same as that of a $50 \ keV$ $X$-ray photon. The ratio of the energy of the photon to the kinetic energy of the electron is (the energy equivalent of electron mass is $0.5 \ MeV$ ).
