Matter Waves: de Broglie Wavelength

An electron is accelerated from rest through a potential difference of V volt. If the de-Broglie wavelength of the electron is 1.227 ×\times 10-2 nm, the potential difference is:

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

  1. λ=1.227V\lambda = \dfrac{1.227}{\sqrt{V}} nm ⇒V=1.2271.227×10−2=100\Rightarrow \sqrt{V} = \dfrac{1.227}{1.227\times10^{-2}} = 100.
  2. V=104V = 10^4 V.
  3. So the answer is (c) 10410^4 V.
