If the potential difference used to accelerate electrons is doubled,by what factor does the de-Broglie wavelength associated with the electrons change?
- AWavelength is increased to $\sqrt{2}$ times.
- BWavelength is decreased to $\sqrt{2}$ times.
- CWavelength is decreased to $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$ times.
- DWavelength is increased to $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$ times.
