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

  • A
    $E^4$
  • B
    $E^{1/2}$
  • C
    $E^2$
  • D
    $E$
