Detailed Solution

The charge of positron and proton are same and they are accelerated through the same potential difference, therefore kinetic energy acquired by them will be the same.

K.E. = eV

The relation between de Broglie wavelength and mass and energy of a particle is given by

λ = h2m(K.E.)

λpositron = h2mpositron(K.E.)

λproton = h2mproton(K.E.)

λpositronλproton = mprotonmpositron = Mm
