We may state that the energy E of a photon of frequency v is E =hv, where h is a plank's constant. The momentum p of a photon is p=h//lambda where lambda is the wavelength of the photon. From the above statement one may conclude that the wave velocity of light is equal to

If the enrgy of a frequency v is gives by E = hv where h is plank's constant and the momentum of photon is p = h//lambda where lambda is the wavelength of photon , then the velocity of light is equal to

If the energy of a photon is given by E =(hc)/(lambda) , where h is the Plank's constant c is the velocity of light and lambda is the wavelength of the radiation then the unit of Planck's constant is "______"

If E and p are the respective energy and momentum of a photon, then on reducing the wavelength of the photon,

The energy of a photon of wavelength lambda is [ h = Planck's constant, c = speed of light in vacuum ]

If the energy of a photon of light of frequency is E and its momentum is P, then the velocity of light is-

If E and P are the energy and the momentum of a photon respectively,then on reducing the wavelength of photon
