Quantum Wave-Particle Duality
Explore the fundamental concept of wave-particle duality through the de Broglie hypothesis. This simulation visualizes how matter exhibits both particle and wave characteristics, with wavelength calculated by λ = h/(m·v) where h is Planck's constant (6.626×10⁻³⁴ J·s).

λ = h / (m·v) = 6.626×10⁻³⁴ / (0.040 × 1000) = 1.65×10⁻³⁵ m
Note: The wavelength is scaled up by 10³⁰ for visualization purposes.
