Rectilinear propagation Since corpuscles travel in straight lines, light also travels in straight lines. Reflection of light When corpuscles strike a smooth surface, they bounce back. This explains the laws of reflection (angle of incidence = angle of reflection). Refraction of light When corpuscles enter a denser medium, a force of attraction pulls them. Their speed increases in denser medium, causing bending of light. Different colours of light Different colours are due to different sizes or masses of corpuscles. Example: violet corpuscles are smaller, red ones are larger. ♦️ Successes ✔️ Successfully explained reflection ✔️ Explained rectilinear propagation of light ✔️ Gave a particle-based view, useful in early optics ❌ Limitations / Failures ❌ Could not explain interference ❌ Could not explain diffraction ❌ Could not explain polarization ❌ Predicted speed of light is more in denser medium (experimentally false) 👉 Later experiments proved that light travels slower in denser medium, contradicting Newton. 🔹 Conclusion Newton’s Corpuscular Theory was an important first step in understanding the nature of light. Although it failed to explain many wave phenomena, it paved the way for modern theories, including the dual nature of light (wave + particle). #newton #CorpuscularTheory #light #PhysicsStory #AspireScienceAcademy #NileshSir #JEEPhysics #WaveParticleDuality
