An electron of mass 9.1 x 10
-31 kg moves with a speed of 10
7ms
-1. Calculate the wavelength of the associates wave[h = 6.6 x 10
-34Js]
-
A.
9.0 x 10-24m
-
B.
4.55 x 10-17m
-
C.
7.25 x 10-11m
-
D.
6.20 x 10-8m
Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation
\(\lambda = \frac{hc}{\frac{1}{2}mv^2}\)
= \(\frac{6.6 x 10^{-34} \times 3 \times 10^8}{0.5 \times 9.1 \times 10^{-3} (10^7)^2}\)
= 7.25 x 10-11m
