Today we believe that light has
Correct answer: C. dual nature
- A. wave nature
- B. particle nature
- C. dual nature
- D. all of these:
Explanation
The correct option is (c). According to modern physics, light exhibits both wave-like and particle-like properties. This is known as the wave-particle duality of light.

About Optics
Light is studied through reflection, refraction, dispersion, interference, diffraction and polarization, linking ray behavior with its wave nature. Questions may involve mirrors, lenses, optical instruments, refractive index and image formation, while geometrical optics deals with rays and wave optics explains effects such as interference and diffraction.
