Question

Is light wave or a particle?

Answer 1

Explanation:

1. Both!!. According to quantum mechanical wave-particle duality theory, light exhibits both a particle and a wave character depending on the position.
2. If the light is viewed as a wave, phenomena such as diffraction, polarization, and interference can be explained. By believing that light is made up of tiny particles called photons, phenomena such as the photoelectric effect can be explained.
3. According to Einstein, light is made up of photons, a type of particle, and these photons travel in waves.

De-Broglie introduced an important theory in 1924 as a result of the possibility that radiation could be considered of a dual nature. According to de-Broglie, if radiation exhibits wave behavior in some studies and particle behavior in others, then particles such as electrons should also occasionally exhibit wave behavior.
