Physics-Davisson-Germer Experiment
NEET Physics Davisson-Germer Experiment Assertion Reason Question
Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Easy-Class 12
Assertion (A): The Davisson-Germer experiment demonstrated the wave nature of electrons. | Reason (R): The experiment showed that electrons exhibit interference patterns similar to waves when scattered by a crystal.
A
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
B
Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
C
A is true but R is false.
D
A is false but R is true.
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
The Davisson-Germer experiment confirmed the wave nature of electrons by showing interference patterns when electrons were scattered by a crystal lattice, consistent with wave behavior.
