Question

describe dual nature of light​

Answer 1

Answer:

The dual nature of light means that, in some experiments, light behaves as a wave. In other experiments, light behaves as a particle. In 1801, Thomas Young shined light between two adjacent slits.

Explanation:

Together Max Planck and Albert Einstein explained the photoelectric effect by assuming that light was actually a stream of little particles, or packets of energy known as photons or quanta. Scientists now believe that light is both a wave and a particle – a property which they term the wave-particle duality.

Answer 2

Answer:

Light has a dual nature. 1.Sometimes it behaves like a particle (called a photon), which explains how light travels in straight lines. 2. Sometimes it behaves like a wave, which explains how light bends (or diffracts) around an object.
