Question
Which one of the following statements is NOT true for de Broglie waves ?
Options
A.All atomic particles in motion have waves of a definite wavelength associated with them
B.The higher the momentum, the longer is the wavelength
C.The faster the particle, the shorter is the wavelength
D.For the same velocity, a heavier particle has a shorter wavelength
Solution
λ = h/p
Hence, higher the momentum, smaller the wavelength.
Hence, higher the momentum, smaller the wavelength.
