Moving with the same velocity, which of the following has the longest de Broglie wavelength?

Question

Moving with the same velocity, which of the following has the longest de Broglie wavelength? (A) β - particle (B) α - particle (C) Proton (D) Neutron

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

β - particle is an electron. Since electron has the smallest mass, its de Broglie wavelength is the longest as the velocity of all particles is the same.

Q. Moving with the same velocity, which of the following has the longest de Broglie wavelength?

$β -$ particle

$α -$ particle

Proton

Neutron

$β -$ particle is an electron. Since electron has the smallest mass, its de Broglie wavelength is the longest as the velocity of all particles is the same.
