NEET Solved Paper 2014 Question 40
Question: If the kinetic energy of the particle is increased to 16 times its previous value, the percentage change in the de-Broglie wavelength of the particle is [AIPMT 2014]
Options:
A) 25
B) 75
C) 60
D) 50
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: B
Solution:
- For de-Broglie wavelength $ {\lambda_1}\frac{h}{p}=\frac{h}{\sqrt{2mK}}, $ .(i) $ {\lambda_2}=\frac{h}{\sqrt{2m16K}}=\frac{h}{4\sqrt{2mK}}=\frac{{\lambda_1}}{4} $ (ii) $ {\lambda_2}=$25%,of,${\lambda_1} $ There is 75% change in the wavelength.
