👉 Light particles, often referred to as photons, are fundamental entities that carry energy and momentum through space. These particles are the smallest units of light and other forms of electromagnetic radiation, such as radio waves and microwaves. When light travels through a medium or interacts with matter, it can be absorbed, reflected, or transmitted, but it is also composed of discrete packets of energy—light particles. Each photon has a specific wavelength and frequency, which determines its color in the visible spectrum; shorter wavelengths correspond to blue light, while longer wavelengths correspond to red light. The concept of light particles revolutionized our understanding of optics and physics, leading to advancements in fields like quantum mechanics and photonics.
