Text Solution

Verified by Experts
The correct answer is:
B

Step 1. Given data:
The de-Broglie wavelength of .
Mass of mass of
Velocity of mass of
Step 2. Formula used:
De Broglie wavelength , where plank's constant, are mass and velocity respectively.
Step 3. Calculations:

Also, , (By putting the values of )
Thus, , (By putting the value of )
Hence, de Broglie's wavelength of will be .
