Q26.If the de Broglie wavelengths associated with a proton and an α-particle are equal, then the ratio of velocities of the proton and the α-particle will be: (1) 1 : 4 (2) 1 : 2 (3) 4 : 1 (4) 2 : 1

What This Question Tests

This is a direct application of the de Broglie wavelength formula, requiring comparison of velocities for a proton and an alpha-particle given their masses and equal wavelengths.

Concepts Tested

de Broglie wavelengthMomentumMass-energy equivalence (implicit for particles)

Formulas Used

λ = h/p

p = mv
