A particle 'P' is formed due to a completely inelastic collision of particles 'x' and 'y' having de-Broglie wavelengths 'λx' and 'λy' respectively. If x and y were moving in opposite directions, then the de-Broglie wavelength of 'P' is:
  1. λx-λy
  2. λxλyλx+λy
  3. λxλyλx-λy
  4. λx+λy

Solution

hλ=hλx-hλy
1λ=1λx-1λy
λ=λxλyλx-λy
