An electron of mass m and a photon have same energy E. The ratio of de-Broglie wavelength associated with them is:
Added by Chris L.
Step 1
The de Broglie wavelength is given by the formula λ = h / p, where h is the Planck constant and p is the momentum. The momentum of a particle is given by p = √(2mE) for the electron and p = E / c for the photon, where m is the mass of the electron, and c is the Show more…
