Question

In \[\lambda=\frac{h}{mv}\], what do \[m\] and \[v\] represent, respectively?

Options

• Mass of the particle and de Broglie wavelength

• Planck's constant and momentum of the particle

• Momentum of the particle and velocity of the particle

• Mass of the particle and velocity of the particle

Answer 1

Here \[m\] is the mass of the particle, and \[v\] is its velocity. Their product gives the momentum used in the de Broglie relation.
