Given below are two statements:

Question:

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.

  1. Both Statement I and Statement II are true

  2. Statement I is false but Statement II is true

  3. Both Statement I and Statement II are false

  4. Statement $\mathrm{I}$ is true but Statement II is false


Correct Option: , 4

Solution:

If linear momentum are equal then wavelength also equal 

$\mathrm{p}=\frac{\mathrm{h}}{\lambda}, \mathrm{E}=\frac{\mathrm{hc}}{\lambda}$

On decreasing wavelength, momentum and energy of photon increases.
