If the kinetic energy of a free electron doubles, its de-Broglie wavelength changes by the factor

$\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$

$\sqrt{2}$

$\frac{1}{2}$

Explanation

(a) $λ = \frac{h}{\sqrt{2 mE}} \Rightarrow λ \propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{E}}$

● ● ● ● ●

The energy that should be added to an electron to reduce its de Broglie wavelength from one nm to 0.5 nm is

Four times the initial energy

Equal to the initial energy

Twice the initial energy

Thrice the initial energy

Explanation

(d) $λ = \frac{h}{\sqrt{2 mE}}; \frac{λ'}{λ} = \sqrt{\frac{E}{E'}} \Rightarrow \frac{E}{E} = {(\frac{0.5}{1})}^{2} \Rightarrow E' = \frac{E}{0.25} = 4 E$

The energy should be added to decrease wavelength.
= E' - E = 3E

Explanation

(d) $λ = \frac{h}{p}$

So, wavelength is independent of charge.

The momentum of the photon of wavelength 5000Å will be

$1.3 \times 10^{- 27}$ kg-m/sec

$1.3 \times 10^{- 28}$ kg-m/sec

$4 \times 10^{29}$ kg-m/sec

$4 \times 10^{- 18}$ kg-m/sec

Explanation

(a) $p = \frac{h}{λ} = \frac{6.6 \times 10^{- 34}}{(5000 \times 10^{- 10})} = 1.3 \times 10^{- 27} kg - m / s$

● ● ● ● ●

hv/c

hvc

h/v

Explanation

(b) $p = \frac{E}{c} = \frac{hv}{c}$

● ● ● ● ●

If the momentum of a photon is p, then its frequency is

$\frac{ph}{c}$

$\frac{pc}{h}$

$\frac{mh}{c}$

$\frac{mc}{h}$

where m is the rest mass of the photon

Explanation

(b) $p = \frac{E}{c} = \frac{hv}{c} \Rightarrow v = \frac{pc}{h}$

● ● ● ● ●

An AIR station is broadcasting the waves of wavelength 300 metres. If the radiating power of the transmitter is 10 kW, then the number of photons radiated per second is

$1.5 \times 10^{29}$

$1.5 \times 10^{31}$

$1.5 \times 10^{33}$

$1.5 \times 10^{35}$

Explanation

(b) $P = \frac{W}{t} = \frac{nhc}{λt} \Rightarrow (\frac{n}{t}) = \frac{Pλ}{hc} = \frac{10 \times 10^{3} \times 300}{6.6 \times 10^{- 34} \times 3 \times 10^{8}} = 1.5 \times 10^{31}$
