Please remember, you are very much worth it and make sure to take time for yourself and tell yourself nice things because you deserve it.
Today we are gonna be talking about a popular physics experiment called The double Slit Experiment.
Young's double-slit experiment is a fundamental experiment in which a coherent light source illuminates a barrier with two slits. As the light passes through the slits, photons exhibit wave-like behavior, giving rise to regions of constructive and destructive interference.
This occurs because each slit serves as a new source of waves, and when they overlap, they either reinforce or cancel each other out, resulting in alternating bright and dark bands. If light behaved solely as particles, we would expect to see two distinct bands. However, the observed pattern strongly suggests wave interference.
This experiment established the wave-particle duality of light and laid the foundation of quantum physics.
