Question

light shining on a strip of metal can dislodge electrons. do you think this is more consistent with light being made up of waves or of particles? waves particles not sure done

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

The photoelectric effect, where light dislodges electrons from a metal strip, is more consistent with light being made of particles (photons). Each photon with sufficient energy can eject an electron. Wave - like behavior of light would not explain the immediate ejection of electrons as observed in the photoelectric effect.

Answer:

particles
