What is wabe theory of light? |
| Answer» The wave theory of light was the way we first understood light. The theory was spread most significantly by Robert Hooke and Christiaan Huygens in the 17th century.They predicted that if light was a wave, we would see certain things. We would see that light could reflect off shiny surfaces, refract (or bend) when moving from one material into another, and diffract (or spread) around objects or when moving through slits. It should also be possible to see interference, where peaks or troughs of waves add up to create brighter light, and peaks and troughs cancel out to create darker areas. | |
