NEET Physics de Broglie Wavelength MCQ Question
Which of the following statements about de Broglie wavelength is correct?
The de Broglie wavelength of macroscopic objects is measurable and significant.
Sub-atomic particles exhibit significant wave-like properties that can be measured.
The de Broglie wavelength is inversely proportional to the object's speed.
All particles, regardless of size, have a de Broglie wavelength that can be observed.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
According to the NCERT context, while macroscopic objects do not show measurable wave-like properties due to their extremely small de Broglie wavelengths, sub-atomic particles like electrons exhibit significant and measurable wave characteristics.
