Question

A particle of mass 4 M at rest disintegrates into two particles of mass M and 3 M , respectively, having non zero velocities. The ratio of de-Broglie wavelength of particle of mass M to that of mass 3 M will be:

TestHub · Accepted Answer

λ = h p Both the particles will move with momentum same in magnitude and opposite in direction. So de Broglie wavelength of both will be same, i.e., ratio 1 : 1 .
