ENGINEERING PHYSICS - EXAMPLE 30.2 : The Planck-Einstein relation connects the particulate photon energy E with its associated wave frequency f to produce E = hf. Let h to be the Planck constant. The frequency f, wavelength L and speed of light c are related by E = hc / L. With p denoting the linear momentum of a particle, the de Broglie wavelength L of the particle is given by L = h / p. (a) Find the equation of E as a function of p and c. (b) If E has a unit of electron-volt and f has a unit of 1 / second, then what is the unit of h?

ENGINEERING PHYSICS - ANSWER 30.2 : (a) Let first equation : E = hc / L, second equation : L = h / p. Substitute the second equation into first equation will produce E = hc / L = hc / (h / p) = pc. (b) E = hf then h = E / f. Dimensional analysis of h will produce E / f of electron-volt / (1 / second) or electron-volt-second.
