Question

for which of the following particles will it be most difficult to experimentally verify the de Broglie relationship​

Answer 1

Hey dear,

Let's get some options first.
a) a proton
b) an electron
c) an α-particle
d) a dust particle

● Answer -
d) a dust particle.

● Explaination -
- de Broglie hypothesized that matter exhibits properties of both particle and wave.
- It best suits to small sized partciles moving in linear motion.
- Dust particle is quite large as compared to proton, electron or α-particle.
- Also dust particle doesnt move in linear motion.
- Therefore, de Broglie relationship is hard to verify for a dust particle.

Hope this helped...
