(N/A) Heisenberg's uncertainty principle states that it is impossible to determine simultaneously both the exact position and the exact momentum of a moving microscopic particle (like an electron) with absolute precision.
Mathematically,it is expressed as:
$\Delta x \cdot \Delta p \ge \frac{h}{4\pi}$
Where:
$\Delta x$ is the uncertainty in position,
$\Delta p$ is the uncertainty in momentum,
$h$ is Planck's constant.

In the Davisson-Germer experiment,when electrons strike a $Ni$ crystal,which of the following waves are diffracted?

Which phenomenon best supports the theory that matter has a wave nature?

Who made experimental verification of the wave nature of the electron?

The wave property of electrons implies that they will show diffraction effects. Davisson and Germer demonstrated this by diffracting electrons from crystals. The law governing the diffraction from a crystal is obtained by requiring that electron waves reflected from the planes of atoms in a crystal interfere constructively (see figure).

In the Davisson-Germer experiment,which is the correct curve between the intensity $(I)$ of scattered electrons and the scattering angle $(\phi)$?
