When do photons behave more like a wave?

When we design an experiment that detects wave behavior. They behave more like particles when we design the experiment to detect particle behavior.


What goal of a scientist is to design an experiment that will be able to distinguish the difference between what?

The scientist wants to design an experiment that will demonstrate the effect of the independent variable on the dependent variable. This idea is to show causality between the two.


Which step of scientific method do you perform after you form a hypothesis?

You need to design an experiment to test the validity of the hypothesis.

Why was measuring the speed of light so important in deciding whether light was a wave or particle?

The speed of light was predicted, by the English physicist and mathematician James Maxwell, before it was measured. His work showed that electric and magnetic fields could combine to form electromagnetic waves, and his wave equation showed what their speed would be. Other physicists soon succeeded in creating electromagnetic waves in the laboratory, and detecting them all the way across the room. It was suggested that light might also be an electromagnetic wave. One way to settle the question would be to measure its speed, and see whether it was anywhere near the speed predicted by Maxwell's electromagnetic wave equations. All of that has nothing to do with the wave/particle duality of light. There's no decision to make, because light is both. If you design an experiment to look for wave behavior, light has it. And if you design an experiment to look for particle behavior, light has that too.

Is the topic 'Music's effects on plants' a experiment or demonstration?

This would probably be an experiment given that there is no generally accepted result from playing music to a plant. Of course research design would play a hefty role in whether it's a valid experiment.


How does the background research helps in the design of an experiment?

Background research helps in the design of an experiment because it provides information that is already known about the experiment.
