The light beam bends, changing direction through the glass jar. Which statement explains why the light's behavior supports the particle model of light?
The light behaves like a particle because the photons in the light are absorbed as it passes through the glass.
The light behaves like a particle because the electrons in the light are redirected as it passes through the glass.
The light behaves like a particle because the photons excite the atoms in the glass causing the glass to heat up.
The light behaves like a particle because the photons in the light slow as it passes through the glass causing it to bend.
