Answer 1

@broken_symmetry

Answer 2

Huygens

Answer 3

sorry. my options are
Newton
Young
Einstein

Answer 4

Newton was an adherent of the corpuscular/particle theory of light
Young noticed that light could interfere in a way analogous to sound
Einstein was responsible for reconciling both theories into a quantum theory of light (that it has both particle-like and wave-like behaviour)

Huygens was like 110 years before Young, though

Answer 5

so young would be the answer.

Answer 6

Yeah

Answer 7

ive got one more. could you help?

Answer 8

ok
