11.Dual Nature of Radiation and matter
medium
Given below are two statements
Statement$-I :$ Two photons having equal linear momenta have equal wavelengths.
Statement$-II :$ If the wavelength of photon is decreased, then the momentum and energy of a photon will also decrease.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below.
A
Both Statement $I$ and Statement $II$ are true
B
Statement $I$ is false but Statement $II$ is true
C
Both Statement $I$ and Statement $II$ are false
D
Statement $I$ is true but Statement $II$ is false
(JEE MAIN-2021)
Solution
If linear momentum are equal then wavelength also equal
$p=\frac{h}{\lambda}, E=\frac{h c}{\lambda}$
On decreasing wavelength, momentum and energy of photon increases.
