Q)

The energy and momentum of an electron are related to the frequency and wave length of the associated matter wave by the relation E=hγ,P=hλ But while the value of λ is physically significant the value of γ (and therefore the value of phone speed ) has no physical significance why ?

Since the de- Broglie wave length has a fixed value λhas a physcial significanceAbsolute value of energy E of any particle is arbitrary to with in an additive constant. So frequency has no direct physical meaning Absolute value of energy E of any particle has a direct physical meaning  All the above
