The concept of momentum and energy (and therefore mass) is easy for most people, especially when it comes to solid objects. Most of them are not aware that non-material objects, such as light waves, also have mass.
Well, this is not an unknown fact for physicists. The idea that waves have a mass falls in the category where physics and the physical world come together.
In 1924, French physicist Louis de Broglie proposed wave-particle duality that describes how every particle or quantum entity can…
