An electron and a proton are each accelerated from rest through a potential difference of 100 V. Afterward, which particle has t
1 answer:
Explanation:
The De-Broglie wavelength in terms of potential difference is given by:
Where,
h is Planck's constant
m is mass of charged particle
V is potential difference
e is the amount of charge
It means that the De-Broglie wavelength is inversely proportional to the mass.
Since, the mass of the proton is more than the mass of the electron. So, the De- Broglie wavelength of the electron is larger than proton.

Initially, the spring stretches by 3 cm under a force of 15 N. From these data, we can find the value of the spring constant, given by Hook's law:
where F is the force applied, and
is the stretch of the spring with respect to its equilibrium position. Using the data, we find
Now a force of 30 N is applied to the same spring, with constant k=5.0 N/cm. Using again Hook's law, we can find the new stretch of the spring:
where F is the force applied, and
Now a force of 30 N is applied to the same spring, with constant k=5.0 N/cm. Using again Hook's law, we can find the new stretch of the spring:
