Which of the following phenomena support the wave theory of light?
(1) Scattering
(2) Interference
(3) Diffraction
(4) Velocity of light in a denser medium is less than the velocity of light in the rarer medium.
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
Wave theory of light explains the phenomenon of interference, diffraction and velocity of light in a denser medium or rarer medium, but this theory fails to explain the scattering of light.
