Solution

The correct option is A Statement -1 is true, statement-2 is true and statement is correct explanation for statement-1.

KE of the photon (which is also the total energy of the photon) is greater than the kinetic energy of the electron, both having the same wavelength. It then gives the expression p = h / λ.
