Which observation could the wave theory of light NOT explain?
ALight diffraction
BLight interference
CLight polarisation
DThreshold frequency
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Threshold frequency
Continuous energy absorption implies any frequency would eventually work, so a threshold should not exist.
