MCQ
What type of nature do electromagnetic waves have?
- ✓Dual nature
- BWave nature
- CParticle nature
- DPhoton nature
✓
Answer
Correct option: A.
Dual nature
Electromagnetic radiations have a wave nature as well as properties alike to those of particles. Therefore, electromagnetic radiations are emissions with a dual nature, i.e. it has both wave and particle aspects.
