Question 23
Modern PhysicsThe particle and wave nature of matter are demonstrated in the equation
- A.λ = h/p
- B.λ = c/f
- C.λ = 2d sin θ
- D.λ = hc/E
Show the answer and explanation
Answer: A (λ = h/p)
Explanation
de Broglie's equation λ = h/p links a wave property (wavelength) to a particle property (momentum).
