Solution

The correct option is B Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion
B
According to the De Broglie relation wavelength is inversely proportional to momentum.
ie λ=hp=hmv
Where m =rest mass of the partical
So the wavelength is inversely proportional to the mass of the partical.
