An electron is moving with a speed of 9x106 m/s. what is the speed of a proton that has the same de Broglie wavelength as this electron?

An electron and a proton both moving at nonrelativistic speeds have the same de Broglie wavelength. Which of the following quantities are also the same for the two particles?

The size of the atom in Rutherfords, model is about 1.0 X 10-10 m. (a) Determine the speed of an electron moving about the proton using the attractive electrostatic force between an electron and a proton separated by this distance. (b) Does this speed suggest that Einsteinian relativity must be considered in studying the atom? (c) Compute the de Broglie wavelength of the electron as it moves about the proton, (d) Does this wavelength suggest that wave effects, such as diffraction and interference, must he considered in studying the atom?
