Electron and Photon have same de Broglie wavelength, which of the following is true for their momentum :
- A Momentum of electron < momentum of photon
- B Momentum of electron and photon is zero
- C Momentum of electron = momentum of photon
- D Momentum of electron > momentum of photon
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) Momentum of electron = momentum of photon
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
According to the de Broglie relation \(\lambda=\frac{n}{p}\), momentum \((p)\) is inversely proportional to wavelength \((\lambda)\). Since both the electron and photon have the same wavelength, they must possess the same momentum. C) Momentum of electron = momentum of photon.

Productivity in the Ecosystem
The flow of energy through a terrestrial ecosystem starts with the harnessing of sunlight by autotrophs. The radiant energy is converted by photosynthesis to organic compounds is known as productivity. The productivity is expressed in units of energy per unit of area per unit time. The amount of organic matter present at any given time is biomass. The productivity of any ecosystem is affected by many parameters like weather conditions, nutrient availability etc. The productivity of any ecosystem does vary seasonally and yearly.
