Calculate the wavelength associated with a moving electron having kinetic energy of 1.375×10 to power minus 25 J . plz solve this systematic way
Answers
Answer :-
Wavelength associated with the moving electron is 1.32 × 10⁻⁶ metres .
Explanation :-
We have :-
→ Kinectic energy (K.E.) = 1.375 × 10⁻²⁵ J
→ Planck's Constant (h) = 6.62 × 10⁻³⁴ Js
→ Mass of electron (m) = 9.1 × 10⁻³¹ kg
To find :-
→ Wavelength (λ) .
________________________________
Firstly, let's calculate the velocity of the electron .
K.E. = ½mv²
⇒ 1.375 × 10⁻²⁵ = ½ × 9.1 × 10⁻³¹ × v²
⇒ v² = (1.375 × 10⁻²⁵ × 2)/(9.1 × 10⁻³¹)
⇒ v² = (2.75 × 10⁻²⁵)/(9.1 × 10⁻³¹)
⇒ v² = 2.75/9.1 × 10³¹⁻²⁵
⇒ v² = 0.302 × 10⁶
⇒ v = √302000
⇒ v = 549.54 m/s
________________________________
Now, wavelength associated will be :-
λ = h/mv
⇒ λ = (6.62 × 10⁻³⁴)/(9.1 × 10⁻³¹ × 549.54)
⇒ λ = (6.62/5000.81) × 10³¹⁻³⁴
⇒ λ = 0.00132 × 10⁻³
⇒ λ = 1.32 × 10⁻⁶ m
Given :-
The Kinetic energy of 1.375 × 10⁻²⁵ J
To Find :-
Calculate the wavelength
Solution :-
We know that
m = 9.31 × 10⁻³¹
