Correct answer
7

Step-by-step explanation

Given:
Kinetic energy(K.E.)=4.55×1029J
Mass of electron(me)=9.1×1031kgh=6.6×1034Jsec

debroglie wavelength λd=hmv=h2mKE

Here λ is the de Broglie wavelength, h is Planck's constant, m is the mass of the particle, v is its velocity, and p is the momentum of the particle, which is equal to mv.

λ=h2mKE

=6.6×10-342×9×10-31×4.5×10-29=6.6×10-349×10-30=6.69×10-4

=669×10-5

=7.33×10-5
