Short Answer
Wave nature of light (interference) is the best answer.
Wave and optics questions test how frequency, wavelength, phase, interference, and geometry fit together. Start with the physical picture before choosing the equation.
Constructive and destructive interference fringes in Young's experiment are direct evidence of the wave nature of light.
Why This Answer Is Correct
This is a Easy-level question in Waves & Optics. The prompt is really testing whether you can connect the concept to its defining physical relationship instead of picking a nearby-but-wrong term.
If a waves question feels messy, sketch the geometry or phase relationship first, then return to the algebra.
Choices At A Glance
- A. Particle nature of light
- B. Wave nature of light (interference)
- C. Photoelectric effect
- D. Compton scattering
When similar options appear on an exam, eliminate the ones that break the core law, use the wrong units, or confuse a definition with a consequence.
