Particle Nature of Light
Photoelectric effect gives solid evidence of the particle nature of light. It tells that light can interact with matter in a way that is consistent with it being made of individual particles.
Dual Nature of Matter
Dual Nature of Matter states that a matter exhibits both Particle Nature and Wave Nature. It means that when a matter is at rest it behaves like a particle and when it is moving it behaves like wave. Different Experiments have been performed to prove this by the science community.
In this article, we will look into this theory and understand the dual nature of matter. We will also learn the experiments that proved the dual nature of matter.
