What is the difference between particle theory of light and wave theory of light

Question

anonymous · Answer

The particle theory of light will treat light as a stream of particles (photon). While in the case of a wave theory of light light will be considered as an electromagnetic wave that can travel through vacuum and travel with the speed of light.

anonymous · Answer

in partical theory of light we study partical nature of light as photons and in wave theory we study wave nature of light as they form diffraction,inferaction,polariztion

anonymous · Answer

wave theory 
- the light behaves as waves when propagated in space.
particular theory
- the light behaves as particles ( photons ) when travelling is space.
generally the light have double character ( wave .. particle )
