MCQ
Which experiment seemed to make it clear that light propogates as a wave?
  • A
    Milikan's oil drop experiment
  • B
    The Michelson$-$Morley experiment
  • Young's double$-$slit experiment
  • D
    Lenz's proof of Lenz's law

Answer

Correct option: C.
Young's double$-$slit experiment

Young's double slit experiment
The double slit experiment is a demonstration that light and matter can display characteristics of both classically defined waves and particles. Moreover it displays the fundamentally probabislistic nature of quantum mechanical phenomena.
