Solution
The correct option is B Huygens
Newton has given the theory that light is made of tiny particles. In 1678, Dutch physicist, Christiaan Huygens, believed that light was made up of waves vibrating up and down perpendicular to the direction of light, and therefore formulated a way of visualizing wave propagation. This known as 'Huygens' Principle'.
