I'm about two seconds away from ripping this stupid light booklet in half, I swear...

  1. The wave model.  The particle model helps explain the photoelectric effect whereby photons striking a metal surface release electrons.  Photons as waves can pass through two close-by slits and produce interference rings (light and dark rings).  


  2. Wave model.

    Is that stupid light booklet still OK? Sorry I took so long to answer.

    In half? Hmmm. You would then have two particles to test the wave properties of light with.

    Please be careful with the books. We had a lot of trouble finding Archimedes books after the Christians turned copies of the original scrolls into prayer books.
