An electron is accelerated through a potential difference of 100 volts. What is the de-Broglie wavelength associated with it? To which part of the electromagnetic spectrum does this value of wavelength correspond ?

Answer»

SOLUTION :`LAMBDA=(h)/(SQRT(2meV))` or `lambda=(12.27)/(sqrtV)` Å
`lambda=(12.27)/(sqrt100)Å=1.227Å`
This wavelength corresponds to the X-rays.
