10. Electrons that have been accelerated from rest through a potential difference of 150 volts have a de Broglie wavelength of approximately 1 Angstrom ( 10−1010^{-10} meter). In order to obtain electrons whose de Broglie wavelength is 0.5 Angstrom ( 5×10−115 \times 10^{-11} meter), what accelerating potential is required? (A) 37.5 V (B) 75 V (C) 300 V (D) 600 V
