My teacher just shone the laser pointer through a hole (lol) i didnt get what the slit experiment was suppose to show....i think it was interference.

First get two pieces of something that you can cut slits into, cardboard for example. Then in one cut one slit and in the second cut two slits but pretty close together. Then shine a light in the one with one slit in it then make sure the light coming from the slit shines on the one with two slits but that both slits are getting light. Then put that whole apparatus facing a white object and you should see interference patterns.

P.S. Use an LED flashlight a laser pointer might not work because it doesn't spread out as much

particularly, youthful's double-slit try shows the wave nature of light. Assuming they are debris, each and each passes through in reality one slit yet, nonetheless, the trend that emerges shows the interference trend results of both slits, a lot as a water wave produces interference kinds after passing through 2 openings close jointly. the only particle nature of light became perfect shown by technique of the Photoelectric result the position a ordinary particle of a particular potential ( frequency ) causes emission from a floor of an electron whose potential is correlated with that of the ordinary "quantum".
