Question

what us the wave theory and particle theory of light

Answer 1

Answer:

• In 1905, Albert Einstein proposed the wave-particle theory of electromagnetic radiation. This theory states that electromagnetic energy is released in discrete packets of energy—now called photons—that act like waves. After Einstein presented his theory, scientists found evidence to support it.

Answer 2

The light could show both a wave theory and a particle theory at the same time.

Wave theory: It stated that if the light was a wave, we would see that light could reflect off shiny surfaces, refract (or bend) and diffract (or spread) around objects.

Light theory: consists of small particles which travels in straight lines and are reflected from mirrors.
