MCQ
Given below are two statements

Statement$-I :$ Two photons having equal linear momenta have equal wavelengths.

Statement$-II :$ If the wavelength of photon is decreased, then the momentum and energy of a photon will also decrease.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below.

  • A
    Both Statement $I$ and Statement $II$ are true
  • B
    Statement $I$ is false but Statement $II$ is true
  • C
    Both Statement $I$ and Statement $II$ are false
  • Statement $I$ is true but Statement $II$ is false

Answer

Correct option: D.
Statement $I$ is true but Statement $II$ is false
d
If linear momentum are equal then wavelength also equal

$p=\frac{h}{\lambda}, E=\frac{h c}{\lambda}$

On decreasing wavelength, momentum and energy of photon increases.
