The wavelength of light from the spectral emission line of sodium is 589 nm. The kinetic energy at which a neutron would have the same de Broglie wavelength is

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

Given, wavelength of light = 589 nm = 589 x 10-9m

Mass of electron me= 9.1 x 10-31kg

Mass of neutron mn= 1.67 x 10-27kg

Planck's constant h = 6.62 x 10-34J - s

Kinetic energy of neutron

KE n = h 2 2 λ 2 m n

= 6 . 6 3 × 1 0 - 3 4 2 2 × 5 8 9 × 1 0 - 9 2 × 1 . 6 6 × 1 0 - 2 7

= 3 . 8 1 × 1 0 - 2 8  J .
