Question

Define matter waves. Write the formula for de-Broglie wavelength

Answer 1

Matter waves are a central part of the theory of quantum mechanics, being an example of wave–particle duality. All matter exhibits wave-like behavior. For example, a beam of electrons can be diffracted just like a beam of light or a water wave.

Formula for De Broglie Wavelength:

λ= h/p

λ= h/mv

λ=The de Broglie Wavelength in meter

h=Planck’s constant which is 6.63 ×10 {-34} Js

p=momentum of particle in kg m s -1

m=mass of particle in kg

v=velocity of a particle ms^{-1}
