Wave nature of light cannot explain photoelectric effect because in photoelectric effect , it is seen that

Statement-1 : Photoelectric effect supports the particle nature of light. That means light is not a wave in this case. Statement-2 : The particle nature and the wave nature of light coexist, what we feel is the nature that is dominating at a particular situation.
