Which of the following phenomenon exhibits particle's nature of light ?
Options
- AInterference
- BDiffraction
- CPolarisation
- DPhotoelectric effect
Correct answer
D. Photoelectric effect
Step-by-step solution
Interference is a phenomenon in which two waves of same frequency superpose to give resultant intensity different from sum of their separate intensity. So, it cannot exhibit particle's nature of light. (b) Diffraction is a phenomenon in which light bends at sharp ends of an obstacle or a hole. So, it also cannot exhibit particle's nature of light. (c) Polarisation of light is a property owing to which a light ray after emerging through a crystal (a special kind like tourmaline) have vibrations in a plane perpendicu
