11.Dual Nature of Radiation and matter
easy
A photon, an electron and a uranium nucleus all have the same wavelength. The one with the most energy
A
Is the photon
B
Is the electron
C
Is the uranium nucleus
D
Depends upon the wavelength and the properties of the particle.
Solution
(a) $\lambda = \frac{h}{{mv}} = \frac{h}{{\sqrt {2mE} }}:$ $\therefore \;E = \frac{{{h^2}}}{{2m{\lambda ^2}}}$
$\lambda $ is same for all, so $E \propto \frac{1}{m}$. Hence energy will be maximum for particle with lesser mass.
