If an electron and a photon propagate in...

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

angular momentum

D

velocity

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
As both electron and photon have same de-Broglie wavelength `(lambda = h//p)`, so they have the same momentum P.
