de-broglie wavelength associated with an electron under a potential difference of 100 v
Answers
0.122 nm will be the de-broglie wavelength associated with an electron
Explanation:
when an electron accelerates through the potential difference the kinetic energy is eaual to the eV
= = eV ..................................................eq 1
where v is velocity of the electron and V is the potential difference
e is the charge on electron= 1.620 * 10 ⁻¹⁹ C
m is the mass of the electron 9.109 * 10⁻³¹ Kg
Using above data in eq 1 we get :
v*v = 2* (1.620 * 10 ⁻¹⁹ * 100 ) / 9.109 * 10⁻³¹
= 35.569*10¹² m/s
v = 5.96 * 10⁶ m/s
De broglie wavelength is given by :
λ = ..................................... eq 2
// where h is : Planck constant is defined to have the exact value. 6.62607015×10−34 J⋅s.
inserting values in eq 2 we get :
= ( 6.626×10⁻³⁴ ) / (5.96 * 10⁶ * 9.109 * 10⁻³¹ )
= 0.122 * 10⁻⁹ m
=0.122 nm
Answer:1.2 A° or 1.2 × 10^-10 m
Explanation:
lamda electron = 12.27 ÷√(potential difference)
= 12.27 ÷ √[100]
= 1.2 × 10^-10 m
= 1.2 A°
