Physics-de Broglie Wavelength

NEET Physics de Broglie Wavelength MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Hard-Class 12

Calculate the de Broglie wavelength of a proton moving at a velocity of 1.0 × 10^7 m/s. Assume the mass of the proton is 1.67 × 10^-27 kg.

A

96 × 10^-14 m

B

76 × 10^-34 m

C

6.63 × 10^-27 m

D

32 × 10^-15 m

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

Using de Broglie's formula λ = h/p, where p = mv. Substituting the given values: λ = 6.63 × 10^-34 Js / (1.67 × 10^-27 kg × 1.0 × 10^7 m/s) = 3.96 × 10^-14 m.
