How will the de-Broglie wavelength associated with an electron be affected when the accelerating potential is increased? Justify your answer.

उत्तर
The electron's speed increases as the accelerating potential increases. The electron's momentum increases, and the wavelength decreases according to the de-Broglie wavelength formula. As a result, the de-Broglie wavelength of the electron will decrease.
