How does a laser travel in a straight line?
Many think a laser travels in a straight line due to it being made of particles since particles travel in a straight line when not acted upon by a force. This is not why a laser is straight. A laser is actually a wave and waves are able to travel around corners. If you notice, ocean waves actually seem to bend around corners. Sound waves do the same thing so that you can hear someone in another room. Light waves can do the same thing. The reason they don't is because they are much smaller than the opening they pass through. Ocean and sound waves have a much longer wavelength than light does. If ocean waves passed into a harbor they would also travel in a straight line. When the wavelength is much smaller than the opening they pass through the interferance created by the corners of the opening, destroying all the waves that are not moving in the direction of the waves before they passed through the opening. Therefore, it is wave interference that causes it to be so straight.
