Question:medium
If 2E is the kinetic energy of a moving particle of mass \(m\), then the wavelength of the de Broglie wave associated with it is
If 2E is the kinetic energy of a moving particle of mass \(m\), then the wavelength of the de Broglie wave associated with it is
Show Hint
Always express momentum in terms of kinetic energy: \(p = \sqrt{2mK}\) before substituting into \(\lambda = h/p\).

- \(\frac{h}{2mE}\)
- \(\frac{h}{mE}\)
- \(\frac{h}{2\sqrt{mE}}\)
- \(\frac{h}{\sqrt{2mE}}\)
- \(\frac{h}{4\sqrt{mE}}\)
