Dual Nature of Radiation and Matter..

The first experimental proof of the wave nature of electron was demonstrated in 1927 by two American physicists C.J Davison and L.H Germer..

>Cardiac muscle is characterised by long, cylindrical, branched multinucleate muscle fibres with an indistinct sarcolemma Cardiac muscle is involuntary in nature. It never experiences fatigue Cardiac muscle occurs exclusively in the heart Connective tissue is the most abundant tissue in t..

Many scientists earlier to the period of Mendel had attempted breeding experiments in both plants and animals. However, most of them failed to arrive at any specific conclusions or principles to explain the pattern of inheritance. In fact, many of these scientists did not ..

>Similar to light, matter also manifests itself in the form of particles as well as waves. Compton effect, and Davison and Germer's experiment stand as evidence for dual nature of matter. If an electron acts as a wave, its wavelength is calculated to be Davison and Germer..

/c to photons of energy h u . The elastic scattering of a photon from an electron at rest can be worked out by using the principles of conservation of energy and conservation of momentum. The discovery in 1905 of the dual nature of light was followed by the discovery of dual nature of matter. Even..

Parthenogenesis is a form of reproduction in which the ovum develops into a new individual without fertilisation. Natural parthenogenesis has been observed in many lower animals (it is characteristic of the rotifers), especially insects, e.g., the aphid. In many social insects, such as th..

/p. This is de Broglie wave equation. De-Broglie's hypothesis attributing a dual particle-wave character to matter appears very strange at first sight. Since it is very much against the direct evidence of one's senses at the macroscopic level. But at the level of the atom, the behavior of matter ha..
