behaves like a wave.
- Name or describe an experiment that demonstrates that light
behaves like a particle.
Here’s How to Crack It
- Young’s double-slit interference experiment shows that light behaves
like a wave. Interference is a characteristic of waves, not of particles. - The photoelectric effect shows that light behaves like a particle, where
the energy of the light is absorbed as photons: individual “particles” of light
energy.
