PHY 104 Photo Electric Emission Objective Question

Question

Which constant is represented by 'h' in the formulas E=hv and λ=h/p?
Options
A Speed of light
B Boltzmann constant
C Planck's constant
Correct Answer
D Gravitational constant
Correct Answer

Option C is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

Page 11, under 'WAVE PARTICLE DUALITY', explicitly states 'h- plank's constant'. The summary on page 15 also confirms these relations.

Hint

This constant is fundamental in quantum mechanics and appears in energy-frequency and momentum-wavelength relationships.
