Photons: Energy, Momentum & Radiation Pressure

Dual nature of light is exhibited by

Show answer and solution

Answer: (a)

  1. Diffraction is explained only by the wave nature of light.
  2. Photoelectric effect is explained only by the particle (photon) nature.
  3. Together they show the dual nature; reflection, refraction and interference are all wave-explainable.
  4. So the answer is (a).
