उत्तर
An electron exhibits wave nature under certain conditions. Matter waves, de Broglie waves, and Schrodinger waves are all names for waves associated with a moving electron. The de Broglie wavelength of these matter waves is given by λ = h/p, where h is Planck's constant, and p is the magnitude of the electron's momentum.
