Davisson-Germer, Uncertainty, Compton & X-Rays
Given below are two statements:
Statement I: Davisson-Germer experiment establishes the wave nature of electrons. Statement II: If electrons have wave nature, they can interfere and show diffraction. In the light of the above statements choose the correct answer from the option given below:
Show answer and solution
Answer: (a)
- Statement I: Davisson–Germer electron diffraction established the wave nature of electrons — true.
- Statement II: any wave can interfere and diffract, so electrons with wave nature can too — true.
- So the answer is (a).
