    A proton and an alpha particle are accelerated through the same potential difference. The ratio of the wavelengths associated with proton and alpha particle respectively is

    A)  \[1:2\sqrt{2}\]                 

    B)  2 : 1

    C)  \[2\sqrt{2}:1\]                 

    D)  4 : 1

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                     \[\lambda =\frac{h}{\sqrt{2mqV}}\] Or           \[\lambda \propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{mq}}\] Or           \[\frac{{{\lambda }_{p}}}{{{\lambda }_{\alpha }}}\propto \sqrt{\frac{{{m}_{\alpha }}{{q}_{\alpha }}}{{{m}_{p}}{{q}_{p}}}}\] Or           \[\frac{{{\lambda }_{p}}}{{{\lambda }_{\alpha }}}=\sqrt{\frac{4{{m}_{\alpha }}\times 2{{q}_{p}}}{{{m}_{p}}\times {{q}_{p}}}}\sqrt{8}=2\sqrt{2}\] Or           \[{{\lambda }_{p}}:{{\lambda }_{\alpha }}=2\sqrt{2}:1\]
