NEET Physics (general) Assertion Reason Question
Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Hard-Class 12
Assertion (A): The energy of a photon is directly proportional to its frequency. | Reason (R): The wave nature of light is evident in phenomena like diffraction and interference.
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 B
Detailed Explanation
The energy of a photon is given by E = hν, where h is Planck's constant and ν is the frequency, showing direct proportionality. The reason provided relates to the wave nature, which is not an explanation for the particle nature (photon energy).
