An electron of mass $m$ and a photon have the same energy $E$. The ratio of the de-Broglie wavelength of the electron to the wavelength of the photon is ($c =$ velocity of light).

  • A
    $c \sqrt{\frac{E}{m}}$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{c} \sqrt{\frac{2m}{E}}$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{c} \sqrt{\frac{E}{2m}}$
  • D
    $c \sqrt{\frac{m}{E}}$

The energy of a photon is equal to the kinetic energy of a proton. If $\lambda_1$ is the de-Broglie wavelength of the proton,$\lambda_2$ is the wavelength associated with the photon,and the energy of the photon is $E$,then $(\lambda_1 / \lambda_2)$ is proportional to

Which of the following has the largest de Broglie wavelength?

$A$ bomb projected from the ground at an angle $\theta$ $\left( \theta \neq 90^\circ \right)$ explodes into two fragments of equal mass at the topmost point of its trajectory. If one of the fragments returns to the point of projection,then the ratio of the de Broglie wavelength of the second fragment just after the explosion to that of the bomb just before the explosion is:

According to the de-Broglie hypothesis, the ratio of the wavelength of a photon and that of an electron having the same energy $E$ is $(m = \text{mass of electron}, c = \text{velocity of light})$

Two electrons are moving with non-relativistic speeds perpendicular to each other. If corresponding de Broglie wavelengths are $\lambda_1$ and $\lambda_2$,their de Broglie wavelength in the frame of reference attached to their centre of mass is
