Answer:
waves/ particles
Explanation:
The simple answer is that wave/particles duality as it is called is present in the macroscopic world- but we can't see it.
Is this is correct answer make me brinliest

We do not observe matter waves in heavy particles because of the following reason:
- From De Broglie's hypothesis, we know that every particle exhibits a wave nature with a wavelength λ=h/p, where h is Planck's constant and p is the particle's momentum.
- For heavy particles, the mass is higher i.e. the momentum is higher.
- This makes the wavelength of the heavier particles very small.
- Hence, the matter waves in the case of heavy particles are not significant as it is for lighter particles and therefore cannot be observed.
