Match List I with List II: List I List II (A) Energy of photon (I) Zero (B) Momentum of photon (II) Neutral (C) Rest mass of photon (III) hc (D) Charge of photon (IV) h Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Options
- A(A)-(IV), (B)-(III), (C)-(II), (D)-(I)
- B(A)-(III), (B)-(IV), (C)-(II), (D)-(I)
- C(A)-(III), (B)-(IV), (C)-(I), (D)-(II)
- D(A)-(IV), (B)-(III), (C)-(I), (D)-(II)
Correct answer
C. (A)-(III), (B)-(IV), (C)-(I), (D)-(II)
Step-by-step solution
Energy of a photon is given by E = hc . Momentum of a photon is p = E c = h . The rest mass of a photon is zero, as it always moves with the speed of light in vacuum. A photon is an electrically neutral particle, so its charge is zero (neutral). Therefore, the correct matching is (A)-(III), (B)-(IV), (C)-(I), (D)-(II). Answer: (A)-(III), (B)-(IV), (C)-(I), (D)-(II)
