According to de-Broglie hypothesis, the wavelength associated with moving electron of mass m isλe. Using mass energy relation and Planck's quantum theory, the wavelength associated with photon isλp.If the energy(E)of electron and photon is same then relation between λeandλpis

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

For photon:E=hcλp
∴     λp=hcE..........(i)
For electron: E=mc2=pc
∴     p=EC
λe=hp=hcE........(ii)
By Equations. (i) and (ii),
λp ∝ λe
