Q.Write a short note on dual nature of
light.
•Radiation is known as electromagnetic
radiation.
•Its nature was studied by Max plank in
1900 and in order to explain its result
of experiments,he proposed the
particle nature of radiation.
•After this interference and diffraction
properties of light were observed
under suitable conditions.Since such
effects can be explained by wave
theory lightn began to be regarded as
wave phenomenon.
•In1902,Albert Einstein studied the
electrons released from metal by
incident radiations.This effect of
radiation is known as photoelectric
effect.
•the results of this experiments can be
explained by assuming that light has
particle nature.Thus the dual nature
 of radiation was accepted.
•The particles of radiation are known as
photons.
•Einstein proposed the following relation
between energy of a photon of
radiation having frequency v.
E=hv ,where h=planc's constant
E=energy of a
photon
v=frequency
•but v= c

Q.Write ashort notwe on de broglies

equation.
•After the acceptance of dual nature of
light De Broglie the french scientist
proposed the idea of matter wave in
1924.
•He argued that if radiations which were
accepted to be wave shows particle
nature then moving matter which are
accepted to be particle in nature
should also show wave nature.
he deduced the following equation
relating the mass and velocity and
wavelength as follow:
