GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
Objective 01 Objective 02
Isaac Newton
“corpuscular” (particle) theory of light.
Newton believed that light was made up of
small particles and these particles would
naturally have mass too.
FAMOUS SCIENTISTS IN THE 1600S
WORKING ON THE THEORIES FOR THE
BEHAVIOR OF LIGHT
Christian Huygens
Proposed a wave theory of light
Huygens believed that light was made
up of vibrating waves perpendicular to
the direction of the light travels. With this
concept, he was able to formulate a way
to visualize wave propagation
Huygen’s Principle explains why light
shining through a pin hole or slit will
spread out rather than going in a straight
line.

he deduced that a beam of light
parallel to the surface of the earth
would bend downward due to the
pull of earth’s gravity.
