Given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.
An electron is accelerated from rest by a potential difference of (24.5 + A) V for a distance of (4.50 + B) cm. Determine the de Broglie wavelength of the electron. Give your answer in picometers (pm) and with 3 significant figures.
A = 11
B = 5
Explanation:
Change in potential difference will be as follows.
By putting the value of A we will calculate
as follows.
= (24.5 + 11) volts
= 35.51 volts
and, d = (4.50 + B) cm
= (4.50 + 5) cm
= 9.50 cm
Now, kinetic energy =
v = 3533202.016 m/s
Also we know that,
=
=
or, = 206.2 pm
Thus, we can conclude that the de Broglie wavelength of the electron is 206.2 pm.
Answer:
206 pm
Explanation:
We are given that
Potential difference,
Distance,d=
We have to determine the de Brogile wavelength of the electron.
A=11 and B=5
Charge on electron,q =
Mass of electron=m=
Speed of electron,
Using the formula
v=
de Brogile wavelength,
Where
1 pm=
