NEET Physics (general) Assertion Reason Question

Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Hard-Class 12

Assertion (A): De Broglie wavelength is significant for particles like electrons but negligible for macroscopic objects. | Reason (R): The wave nature of matter becomes apparent when the object's mass is small, and its momentum is low.

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.

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The De Broglie wavelength is significant for particles with small masses and momenta, like electrons, but negligible for macroscopic objects due to their larger masses, making the wave nature of matter undetectable.
