• A. Christian Huygens, a Contemporary of Newton established the Wave theory of light by assuming that light waves are transverse.
• B. Maxwell provided the compelling theoretical evidence that light is transverse in nature.
• C. Thomas Young experimentally proved the wave behavior of light and Huygens assumption.
• D. All the statements given above are correct

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

All the statements given above are correct

Huygens established the Wave theory of light by assuming that light waves are transverse. James Clerk Maxwell's proposed models describing the construction of the invisible substance.Thomas Young proved the wave behavior of light and Huygens assumption using this Double slit experiment.

So, the answer is option (D).
