Questions
If the kinetic energy of the particle is increased to 16 times its previous vlaue, the percentage change in the de Broglie wavelength of the particle is
detailed solution
Correct option is
de Broglie wavelength, λ=h2mKwhere m is the mass and K is the kinetic energy of the particle. When kinetic energy of the particle is increased to 16 times, then its de Broglie wavelength becomes,λ'=h2m(16K)=14λ2mK=λ4 (Using (i))% change in the de Broglie wavelength =λ-λ'λ×100=1-λ'λ×100=1-14×100=75%Talk to our academic expert!
