Statement 1 : Davisson - Germer experiment established the wave nature of electrons.
Statement 2 : If electrons have wave nature, they can interfere and show diffraction.
Statement - $$1$$ : A metallic surface is irradiated by a monochromatic light of frequency $$v > {v_0}$$ (the threshold frequency). The maximum kinetic energy and the stopping potential are $${K_{\max }}$$ and $${V_0}$$ respectively. If the frequency incident on the surface is doubled, both the $${K_{\max }}$$ anmd $${V_0}$$ are also doubled.
Statement - $$2$$ : The maximum kinetic energy and the stopping potential of photoelectrons emitted from a surface are linearly dependent on the frequency of incident light.
Statement - $$2$$ : Photoelectrons are emitted with speeds ranging from zero to a maximum value because of the range of frequencies present in the incident light.
