Answer 4

According to wave theory of light, it is an electromagnetic wave and is made up of electric and magnetic intensity vectors oscillating mutually perpendicular to each other and also perpendicular to the path of propagation of light.

According to particle theory, it is made up of particles called photons. Each photon has energy = hf, where h is Planck's constant and f is the frequency of light.

Some phenomena like, interference, diffraction, polarization can be explained with the wave theory of light whereas phenomenon like photoelectric effect can be explained with particle theory of light.

Answer 5

Waves.
