Newtons corpuscular theory-Huygens wave theory Comaprision

What is correct in the both theoriesof light?Newtons corpuscular theory-
Huygens wave theory


Both are correct.It depends upon the medium it travels.
Light, which is emitted and absorbed in tiny "packets" called photons, exhibits properties of both waves and particles. This property is referred to as the wave–particle duality. The study of light, known as optics, is an important research area in modern physics.
