Answers
Light:-
Light is a form of energy that enables us to see things. Light starts from a source and bounces off objects which are perceived by our eyes and our brain processes this signal, which eventually enables us to see.
Nature of Light:-
Light behaves as a:-
- ray, e.g. reflection
- wave, e.g. interference and diffraction
- particle, e.g. photoelectric effect
The particle-like nature of light is modeled with photons. A photon has no mass and no charge. It is a carrier of electromagnetic energy and interacts with other discrete particles (e.g., electrons, atoms, and molecules). A beam of light is modeled as a stream of photons, each carrying a well-defined energy that is.Light is a transverse, electromagnetic wave that can be seen by the typical human. The wave nature of light was first illustrated through experiments on diffraction and interference. Like all electromagnetic waves, light can travel through a vacuum
