Answer

a) $0.27nm$ b) $0.27nm$

Work Step by Step

(a) We know that $\lambda_e=\frac{h}{P_e}$ $\implies \lambda=\frac{6.63\times 10^{-34}}{(9.11\times 10^{-31})(2.7\times 10^6)}$ $\implies \lambda_e=0.269\times 10^{-9}m=0.27nm$ (b) We can find the de Broglie wavelength of the photon as $\lambda_p=\frac{h}{P_p}$ $\implies \lambda=\frac{6.63\times 10^{-34}}{(9.11\times 10^{-31})(2.7\times 10^6)}$ $\implies \lambda_p=0.269\times 10^{-9}m=0.27nm$
