127 - Matter as a Particle
In this video Paul Andersen explains how matter, like light, can be treated as both a particle and a wave. Louis de Broglie proposed that matter could act as a wave and described the wavelength of matter as a function of Planck's constant divided by the momentum of the particle. The wave model is only appropriate at the nanoscale.
