If a stationary positron and electron combine, the wavelength of resulting radiation will be 

m0=stationary  mass  of  electron

a
2hm0C2
b
hm0C2
c
2hm0C
d
hm0C

detailed solution

Correct option is D

(4)From conservation of linear momentum, two identical photons travel in opposite directions with equal magnitude of momentum and energy hcλ.From Conservation of Energyhcλ+hcλ  =m0C2+moC2  ⇒  λ=hmoC
