What is Complementarity principle

Complementarity principle (N. Bohr): The principle that a specified system can’t exhibit both wave-like behavior and particle-like behavior at similar time. That is, some experiments will reveal the wave-like nature of a system, and some experiments will reveal particle-like nature of a system, however no experiment will disclose both concurrently.
