Choose the correct answer from given options
The graph showing the correct variation of linear momentum (p) of a charge particle with its de-Broglie wavelength (λ) is _____________.
Options

Solution
The relation between de-Broglie wavelength and the momentum is:
`lambda = h/p`
⇒ `p = h/lambda`
By the above relation, we can conclude that the graph between the momentum and the de-Broglie wavelength is a rectangular hyperbola.
Hence, the correct answer is
