War Is Greed Posted September 7, 2005 Posted September 7, 2005 Is there a diagram any of you are aware of that displays the duality of matter, in other words, the ability for matter to be a particle and a wave at the same time? TIA
elfstone Posted September 7, 2005 Posted September 7, 2005 I don't think there is such a thing because the nature of matter depends on the situation, I mean there isn't a single situation in which we can see a change between the two facets of this duality. Someone correct me if I'm wrong...
5614 Posted September 8, 2005 Posted September 8, 2005 Well you could imagine a particle travelling in a wave shape, however this would be technically wrong. Light isn't a wave and a particle, it is a 3rd thing which displays properties of both.
