The study of the behavior of light is called ____
A
Physics
B
Lightning science
C
Optics
D
Lightology
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Optics is the study of properties and behavior of light. Under optics we study the behaviour of light in different medium and properties such as reflection etc.

Detailed explanation-2: -Optics is the branch of physics that involves the study of light. People who are interested in optics study how light is produced, how it is transmitted, how it is measured, how it is detected, and how it is used. They study the visible light spectrum, which is the rainbow of light that we can see from red to violet.

Detailed explanation-3: -Optical properties are related to the interaction of a material with electromagnetic radiation in the form of waves or particles of energy called photons. The radiation may have characteristics that fall in the visible light spectrum, or it may be invisible to the human eye.

Detailed explanation-4: -Hence this type of property is called wave-particle duality and the study of light in the area of physics is known as Optics.
