Using a linear optic quantum gate we perform a variable strength quantum non-demolition measurement, to elucidate the role of which-path knowledge in a complementarity experiment. Specifically, we demonstrate that the entanglement created by the measurement interaction prevents an exhaustive description in terms of complementary wave-like and particle-like behaviour of a single photon in an interferometer.
