CBSEENPH12040200

The kinetic energy of an electron is 5eV. Calculate the de-Broglie wavelength associated with it (h=6.6×10-34 Js, me =9.1×10-31 kg)

  • 5.47Ao

  • 10.9Ao

  • 2.7Ao

  • None of these

Solution

A.

5.47Ao

Here:- E =5ev=5×1.6×10-19Jλ=h2mE  =6.6×10-342×9.1×10-31×5×1.6×10-19=6.6×10-341.2066×10-24=5.47×10-10 m=5.47Ao
