QJEEM22Ph8363: JEE Main 2022 Physics - Class 12 JEEM22Ph8363 Solution: The ratio of wavelengths of proton and deuteron accelerated by…

The ratio of wavelengths of proton and deuteron accelerated by potential Vp and Vd is 1 : 2\sqrt2 . Then the ratio of Vp to Vd will be :

Multiple Choice Options

  • A 1:01
  • B 2\sqrt2 : 1
  • C 2:01
  • D 4:01

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

λ=hmv=h2m eV\lambda = {h \over {mv}} = {h \over {\sqrt {2m\,eV} }}

so λpλd=mdVdmpVp=12{{{\lambda _p}} \over {{\lambda _d}}} = {{\sqrt {{m_d}{V_d}} } \over {\sqrt {{m_p}{V_p}} }} = {1 \over {\sqrt 2 }}

2VdVp=12{{2{V_d}} \over {{V_p}}} = {1 \over 2}

VpVd=41{{{V_p}} \over {{V_d}}} = {4 \over 1}
