MCQ
The de Broglie wavelengths of a proton and an $\alpha$ particle are $\lambda$ and $2 \lambda$ respectively. The ratio of the velocities of proton and $\alpha$ particle will be :
  • A
    $1: 8$
  • B
    $1: 2$
  • C
    $4: 1$
  • $8: 1$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$8: 1$
d
$\lambda= \frac{\mathrm{h}}{\mathrm{p}}=\frac{\mathrm{h}}{\mathrm{mv}} \Rightarrow \mathrm{v}=\frac{\mathrm{h}}{\mathrm{m} \lambda}$

$\frac{\mathrm{v}_{\mathrm{p}}}{\mathrm{v}_\alpha}=\frac{\mathrm{m}_\alpha}{\mathrm{m}_{\mathrm{p}}} \times \frac{\lambda_\alpha}{\lambda_{\mathrm{p}}}$
