Please explain what is the photoelectric effect and how light has particle-like properties? I do not understand.
1 answer
Light behaves simultaneously as a particle and as a wave. It is composed of photons (quanta) which represent the particle-like properties, with the collisions of photons and electrons accounting for the photoelectric effect at each incident.
