NEET Physics de Broglie Wavelength Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): The de Broglie wavelength is significant and measurable for sub-atomic particles. | Reason (R): The de Broglie wavelength for macroscopic objects is too small to be measured.
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 but R is true.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The de Broglie wavelength is significant for particles in the sub-atomic domain, whereas for macroscopic objects, it is too small to be observed, as illustrated by the examples given in the NCERT context.
