Particle A of mass mA=m/2 moving along the x-axis with velocity v0 collides elastically with another particle B at rest having mass mB=m/3. If both particles move along the x-axis after the collision, the change ∆ λ in de-Broglie wavelength of particle A, in terms of its de-Broglie wavelength (λ0) before collision is: 1) ∆λ = (5/2)λ0 2) ∆λ = 2λ0 3) ∆λ = 4λ0 4) ∆λ = (3/2)λ0

Particle A of mass mA=m/2 moving along the x-axis with velocity v0 collides elastically with another particle B at rest having mass mB=m/3. If both particles move along the x-axis after the collision, the change ∆ λ in de-Broglie wavelength of particle A, in terms of its de-Broglie wavelength (λ0) before collision is:

1) ∆λ = (5/2)λ0

2) ∆λ = 2λ0

3) ∆λ = 4λ0

4) ∆λ = (3/2)λ0
