Which one of the following statements is not true about de-Broglie waves?

$A$ particle is travelling $4$ times as fast as an electron. Assuming the ratio of the de-Broglie wavelength of the particle to that of the electron is $2:1$,the mass of the particle is:

An electron (of mass $m$) and a photon have the same energy $E$ in the range of a few $eV$. The ratio of the de-Broglie wavelength associated with the electron and the wavelength of the photon is ($c =$ speed of light in vacuum).

View Solution

Photons of wavelength $\lambda$ are incident on the cathode of a photocell. Electrons are emitted from the cathode surface. The de-Broglie wavelength of the emitted electrons is (work function is negligible).
($c =$ velocity of light,$h =$ Planck's constant,$m =$ mass of electron)
