Ques. 1AIPMT 2001

Which one among the following shows particle nature of light?

  1. photoelectric effect
  2. interference
  3. refraction
  4. polarization

Answer

(1) photoelectric effect

Solution

Interference and polarization are explained only by the wave nature of light, and refraction is also explained by the wave theory.

In the photoelectric effect, light behaves as a stream of photons, each of energy E = h ; one photon is absorbed by one electron, so the emission is instantaneous and the maximum kinetic energy depends on frequency, not on intensity.

∴ The photoelectric effect shows the particle nature of light.
