उत्तर

According to the de-Broglie wavelength formula, the wavelength is inversely proportional to electron momentum. The product of mass and velocity is momentum. As a result, as the electron's velocity declines, so does its momentum. As a result, the de-Broglie wavelength of the electron will grow.
