An electron (mass \(m\)) with an initial velocity \(\vec{v}={v}_0 \hat{i}\) \(({v}_0>0)\)is in an electric field \(\vec{E}=-{E}_0 \hat{i}\)(\(E_0\) = constant \(>0\)). Its de-Broglie wavelength at time \(t\) is given by:
1. \(\dfrac{\lambda_0}{\left(1+\dfrac{e E_0}{m} \dfrac{t}{{v}_0}\right)}\) 2. \(\lambda_0\left(1+\dfrac{e E_0 t}{m {v}_0}\right)\)
3. \(\lambda_0 \) 4. \(\lambda_0t\)
