Identify the correct statements. (A) The energy (E) and momentum (p) of a photon are related by p = E/c. Choose the correct answer from the options given below: |
(A), (C) and (D) only (B), (C) and (D) only (C) and (D) only (A), (B) and (C) only |
(A), (B) and (C) only |
The correct answer is Option (4) → (A), (B) and (C) only (A) Correct. For a photon, momentum and energy are related as p = E/c. (B) Correct. Momentum p = h/λ. Hence, any particle (electron or photon) with the same wavelength has the same momentum. (C) Correct. In photoelectric effect, one photon of energy greater than the work function can emit one photoelectron. (D) Incorrect. Photons do carry momentum p = h/λ. |
