The wavelength $\lambda$ of a photon and the de-Broglie wavelength of an electron have the same value. The ratio of the kinetic energy of the electron to the energy of a photon is ($m=$ mass of electron,$c=$ velocity of light,$h=$ Planck's constant).

  • A
    $\frac{2 \lambda m c}{h}$
  • B
    $\frac{\lambda mc}{h}$
  • C
    $\frac{h}{2 \lambda m c}$
  • D
    $\frac{h}{\lambda mc}$
