How do you detect if light is a particle or a wave?
Light is both a wave and a particle depending on circumstances; this is referred to as the wave-particle duality of light.
Is light a particle?
Yes. Light has both particle and wave properties.
A gamma ray is a very high speed particle with no charge. True or false?
It is false. A gamma ray has no charge, but it is an electromagnetic wave, not a particle.
What is the ray that represents the light reflected by the surface?
According to sir Isaac Newton, light is a stream of fast-moving particles. This was known as the particle model of light. There is a more simplified model when you study the behavior of light as light reflects off of mirrors and passes through lenses. This model is known as the ray model of light. Light is represented as a straight line or ray which shows the direction the light wave travels. Indeed!
How can you prove that light is a particle?
The photoelectric effect was pretty definitive evidence that light is a particle (well, at least sometimes a particle).
A gamma ray is a very high speed particle with no charge?
Sort of. A gamma ray is a photon, which is a particle/wave moving at the speed of light, because it is light.Photons are the gauge particles for the electromagnetic force, but they don't carry an electric charge themselves.
Is the particle with a plus 2 charge a an alpha particle b a gamma ray or c a beta ray?
a. an alpha particle
What helps us understand something that you cannot see directly?
The light ray of a newtronis mass particle shows the contributed particle aroud an element of anysort
What one of these is not particle proton neutron alpha gamma ray or a beta particle?
The gamma ray is not a particle but is just an EM wave that transmits energy.

Is it true or false that a gamma ray is a very high-speed particle with no charge?
True. A gamma ray is a high-energy photon, and thus moves at the speed of light. And, like all photons, it has no charge.
Nuclear radiation ranked from the greatest mass to the least mass is a- Xray gamma ray beta particle b- Xray beta particle gamma ray c- Alpha particle beta particle gamma ray d Beta alpha gamma?
aplha, beta, gamma

What are the proofs of the particle nature light?
The particle nature of light is illustrated by the photoelectric effect.
