Which phenomena support only the wave theory of light? Check all that apply.

1.reflection
2.refraction
3.diffraction
4.interference
5.photoelectric effect

Respuesta :

Answer;

  • Diffraction
  • interference

Explanation;

  • Light may have both wave or particle properties.
  • According to wave theory of light, light behaves like a wave. Light is an electromagnetic wave which means it does not require a material medium for transmission. Just like electromagnetic waves light possess both magnetic field and electric fields.
  • Light waves displays a transverse type of a wave in which it oscillates in a similar direction as that of the wave travel. Due to these characteristics of a wave light can undergo diffraction and also interference.

Answer:

Diffraction and interference    

Explanation:

Light has a property that it exhibit both wave like and particle like behavior. It is an electromagnetic wave. It do not require any medium for its propagation.

Light shows diffraction and interference both. In interference of light wave, two waves combine to form an interference pattern. While in diffraction of light light bends through the obstacles.

So, the correct options are "diffraction and interference".
