MODERN PHYSICS WAVE PARTICLE DUALITY: Despite their wave nature, electromagnetic radiations, have properties akin to those of particles. Electromagnetic radiation is an emission with a dual nature, i.e. it has both wave and particle aspects. In particular, the energy conveyed by an electromagnetic wave is always carried in packets whose magnitude is proportional to frequency of the wave. These packets of energy are called photons. Energy of photon is h. , where is Planck’s constant, and is frequency of wave. According to de-Broglie As wave behaves like material particles, similarly matter also behaves like waves. According to him, a wavelength of the matter wave associated with a particle is given by , where is the mass and v is velocity of the particle.

SIMPLE HARMONIC MOTION PERIODIC MOTION: Periodic motion of a body is that motion which is repeated identically after a fixed interval of time. Examples (i) The revolution of earth around the sun is a periodic motion. Its period of revolution is one year. (ii) The motion of hands of a clock is a periodic motion. The period of motion of hour’s hand of a clock is 12 hours, of minute’s hand of a clock is 1 hour and of second’s hand of a clock is one minute. (iii) Uniform circular motion is a periodic motion. OSCILLATORY MOTION: Oscillatory or Vibratory motion is that motion in which a body moves to and fro or back and forth repeatedly about a fixed point (called mean position), in a definite interval of time. In such a motion, the body is confined within well defined limits (called extreme positions) on either side of mean position. Thus a periodic and bounded motion of a body about a fixed point is called an oscillatory or vibratory motion. (i) The motion of the bob of a ...
