Physics

Wave-Particle Duality

Quick fact

Light behaves as both a wave and a particle—this duality was confirmed by experiments like the double-slit test in the early 20th century.

Why this is interesting

You've seen light bend around corners, but did you know it can also act like a tiny particle? This strange behavior is at the heart of quantum physics.
