Q. Who systematized the concept of economics in the form the book which was titled as, "An Enquiry into the Nature and Cause of the Wealth of Nations"?

Dual nature of matter was proposed by de Broglie in 1923, it was experimentally verified by Davisson and Germer by diffraction experiment. Wave character of matter has significance only for microscopic particles. de Broglie wavelength or wavelength of matter wave can be calculated using the following relation:

λ = \frac{h}{m v}
