Question

The potential energy of a particle of mass m is given by U(x)=E0;0x10;x>1λ1 and λ2 are the de-Broglie wavelengths of the particle, when 0x1 and x>1 respectively. If the total energy of particle is 2E0, the ratioλ1λ2 will be

Moderate
Solution

 K.E. =2E0E0=E0( for 0x1) λ1=h2mE0 K.E. =2E0( for x>1)λ2=h4mE0λ1λ2=2
