If particles are moving with same velocity, then which has maximum de Broglie wavelength?
Multiple Choice Options
- A proton
- B -particle
- C neutron
- D -particle
Step-by-Step Verified Solution
de Broglie wavelength for a particle is given by
_ = h m v
Since all the particles are moving with same velocity, the particle with least mass will have maximum de-Broglie wavelength.
Here _ -particles(electrons) has the lowest mass and therefore it has maximum wavelength.
