If an electron and a photon propagate in the form of waves having the same wavelength , it implies that they have the same

A

energy

B

momentum

C

velcoity

D

angular momentum

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
(b) de- Broglie wavelengths is given by `lambda = (h)/(P)`
Where `h` is Planck's constant, `p` is momentum and `lambda` is wavelength.
Since, electron and photon have the same wavelength the momentum of both will be same.
