Matter Waves (Wave Particle Duality)

Special relativity said that

E=pc if m=0


Plank said he could fit the Black Body radiation data assuming that that

E=hf where h=6.63×1034 Js = Plank's constant

Combining the two we have

p=Ec=hfc

photons have momentum like a particle (mv)

Do particles reciprocate and behave like photons?
