A particle of mass `M` at rest dacays into two particle of masses `m_(1)` and `m_(2) `having non zero velocity . The ratio of the de Broglie wavelength . The ratio of the de Broglie wavelength of the particle `lambda , _(1) // lambda_(2)` isA. `m_(1)//m_(2)`B. `m_(2)//m_(1)`C. `1.0`D. `sqrt(m_(2))// sqrt(m_(1))`

Answer» Correct Answer - C
By law of conservation of momentum
`0 = m_(1) vec(v_(1)) + m_(2) vec(v_(2)) rArr m_(1) vec (v_(1)) = - m_(2) vec(v_(2))`
`- ve` sign indicates that both the particles are moving in opposite direction. Now de - Broglie wavelengths
`lambda_(1) = (h)/(m_(1) v_(1))` and `lambda_(2) = (h)/(m_(2) v_(2)), :. (lambda_(1))/(lambda_(2)) = (m_(2) v_(2))/(m_(1) v_(1)) = 1`
