The following cannot be explained by wave nature of light:
  • A
    Interference
  • B
    Photo electric effect
  • C
    Diffraction
  • D
    Refraction

Answer

  1. Photo electric effect

Explanation:

Photo electric effect

According to wave physics energy of a wave depends upon an amplitude of a wave it means that there light of any frequency can make electrons come out from metal but it did not happen, light of certain fixed frequency can make electron come out from metal. So the photoelectric effect can only be explained by particle nature of light not wave.
