NEET Physics Davisson-Germer Experiment Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): The Davisson-Germer experiment demonstrated the wave nature of electrons. | Reason (R): The experiment measured the diffraction pattern of electrons reflected from a nickel crystal surface.
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
A is true but R is false.
A is false.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The Davisson-Germer experiment confirmed the wave nature of electrons by observing a diffraction pattern, which is characteristic of wave behavior, when electrons were reflected off a nickel crystal.
