When the laser light is projected into the pinhole and disperses, Which light theory is being modeled?

Question

anonymous · Answer

Well, the behaviour is called refraction. I'm not sure what the question means by theory. Perhaps the options are wave and corpuscular/particle?

anonymous · Answer

the options are
Light is a wave
Light is a particle

Sorry, the behaviour is called diffraction, not refraction, my bad.

Anyway, both of these behaviours are either wave-like or particle-like.

Here's a picture, if that helps
