Light travels in the form of photons. Identify the correct statements
(A) Photons travel with the velocity of light in vacuum.
(B) The rest mass of photons is taken as zero.
(C) Photons have energy which depends on frequency.
(D) Photons have a momentum inversely dependent on frequency.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below.

  1. A (A), (B), (C), and (D)
  2. B (A), (C), and (D) only
  3. C (A), (B) and (C) only

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) (A), (B) and (C) only

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Statements (A), (B), and (C) are correct. Statement (D) is incorrect because momentum \(p = \frac{hf}{c}\) is directly proportional to frequency. Correct Answer: (A), (B) and (C) only
