At $ 10 ^ \circ C $ temperature, de-Broglie wave lengthof atomis $ 0.4 A ^\circ $ . If temperature of atom is increased by $ 30 ^\circ C $ , what will be change in de-Broglie wavelength of atom ?
$ T_1 = 10 +273 = 283 K $ $ T_2 = 40 +273 = 313 K $ $ \lambda _1 = 0.4 A$ $ \lambda = { h \over \sqrt {2mE} }$ $ E = {3 /2 } KT $ $ \lambda = { h \over \sqrt { 3mKT}}$ $ \therefore \lambda \alpha { 1 \over \sqrt T} $ $ \therefore { \lambda_1 \over \lambda_2} = \sqrt { T_1 \over T_2}$ $ \therefore {\lambda_2 \over 0.4 \times 10^{-10}} = \sqrt {283 \over313}$ $ \therefore {\lambda_2 \over 0.4 \times 10^{-10} }= 0.951 $ $ \therefore \lambda_2 = 0.951 \times 0.4 \times 10^{-10}$ $ \therefore \lambda _2 = 0.38 A $ $ = \lambda_2 - \lambda_1 $ $ = 0.38 A ^\circ - 0.4 A ^\circ = - 0.02 A ^\circ $ $ = 2 \times 10^ {-2} A ^\circ decreases $
