  • A
    All particles
  • B
    Charged particles only
  • C
    Negatively charged particles only
  • D
    Massless particles like photons only

Answer

  1. All particles

Explanation:

For any particle of mass m moving with velocity v has a de Broglie wavelength given by:

$\gamma=\frac{\text{h}}{\text{p}}$ This is true for all material particle.
