Study Notes
Light and Electromagnetic Waves
- According to Maxwell's prediction, light is an electromagnetic wave.
- In Class 10 Science Chapter 10, students are taught about refraction, reflection, and total internal reflection of light.
Wave-Particle Duality of Light
- According to the concept of wave-particle duality in quantum mechanics, light behaves as both a wave and a particle (photon).
Vision and Light
- Light enables us to see things.
Travel of Electric and Magnetic Fields
- Maxwell predicted that electric and magnetic fields travel through space in the form of electromagnetic waves.
