  4. If light is a particle, then why does it refract when travelling from one medium to another? And if light is a wave, then why does it dislodge electrons ? But all behavior of light can be explained by combining the two models: light behaves like particles and light behaves like waves.

  5. The Wave Nature of Light Video Tutorial explains the concept of wave-particle duality and discusses the evidence for a wave model of light. Numerous examples, illustrations, and animations assist in the explanations. The video lesson answers the following questions: How do the particle model and wave model compare to one another? What behaviors ...

  6. Light behaves as a wave - it undergoes reflection, refraction, and diffraction just like any wave would. Yet there is still more reason to believe in the wavelike nature of light. Continue with Lesson 1 to learn about more behaviors that could never be explained by a strictly particle-view of light.
