1.

A nucleus of mass M initially at rest splits into two fragments of masses M/3 and (2M)/3. Find the ratio of de-Broglie wavelength of the fragments.

Answer»

Solution :Following the LAW of conservation of MOMENTUM ,
`M/3 nu_1 +(2M)/3nu_2=0`
or `|M/3nu_1| =|(2M)/3nu_2|`
`lambda =h/(MV)RARR |(lambda_1)/(lambda_2)|=|(2M/3nu_2)/(M/3nu_1)|=1`
