The electron emitted during beta in tritium a hydrogen atom


The electron emitted during \(\beta\) in tritium (a hydrogen atom with two neutrons) hasa kinetic energy of 5.7 KeV. What is the deBroglie wavelength for this electron? What is the deBroglie wavelength for this electron? Would you expect such an electron to behave like a particle or a wave interacting with a DNA molecule that is on the order of 20 Angrstoms wide and why? (Hint: h=6.626*10^-34 Js=4.136*10^-15 eV*s)
