Q17.A proton, an electron and an alpha particle have the same energies. Their de-Broglie wavelengths will be compared as : (1) λα < λp < λe (2) λe > λα > λp (3) λp > λe > λα (4) λp < λe < λα

What This Question Tests

This question compares the de-Broglie wavelengths of different particles with the same kinetic energy, testing the inverse relationship between wavelength and square root of mass.
