Great video. Love the intuition you offer. To add some historical perspective, Plank did not expect or like this result. He was a classical guy. His technique was a very traditional application of calculus. His intent was to treat the quanta as an intermediate step. He was trying to reduce the size of the quanta like you would with and infinitesimal in calculus. He expected to be able to make it go away in the final result. He was not happy that the only way things worked was to keep a finite, but very small h-bar in the equation and worked for quite a while to eliminate it. Keep the great videos coming, Thanks!

The peak appears to shifts because the graph scales up in the X direction. This is actually a hint that the speed of light is constant. Scaling in the X axis (wavelength) means that energy affects frequency itself…which can only happen if frequency and wavelength are related a.k.a constant speed.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="150">2:30</a> Dear Mahesh, there was no "Ultraviolet Catastrophe" in 1900, the year Planck proposed his radiation law. In 1900, Lord Rayleigh published a brief paper in which he proposed an ad hoc formula, but it wasn’t until 1905 that he actually applied the equipartition theorem to the blackbody radiation problem. Almost every time I watch a video on blackbody radiation, the sequence of events is often confused. There was no concept of "classical" physics during Planck's time-it was simply physics. When Planck derived his radiation law, he didn’t give much thought to the issue of quantization in terms of the energy emitted and absorbed by bodies (rather than the energy itself). Although he initially guessed his radiation law (and there’s much more to that story), he later provided a theoretical foundation based on Boltzmann's statistical interpretation of entropy, which, unfortunately, you did not mention.

Mahesh sir, as very usual, totally admire your dedication and work. But as a very very true and long term fan, I missed something. I absolutely loved the explanations. Fresh intuitive and enlightening as always. But there could be another practical explanation behind the E = hf equation! Firstly ofcourse as the temperature of a body increases, so does the thermal energy. Just like you mentioned in the previous videos, thermal energy is essentially the kinetic energy of molecules due to vibration. Hence, greater temperature = more energy = quicker jiggling movement and vibration of atoms. Now since the electromagnetic (EM) field permeates all of space, a quicker vibration = shorter wavelength disturbance in the EM field = greater frequency in the field. And lastly, as we all know, light is EM radiation. Acceleration charges produce light. Hence, charges at greater temperature, having greater energy, vibrating with greater frequency, produce light of greater frequency!!!! That's also why the peak shifts with temperature. Concluding, at a particular temperature, it peaks at some wavelength because that amount of energy corresponds to a maximum vibration of particular frequency in general. Since no material is perfect, the vibrations spread out a bit, some of larger wavelengths some of smaller, smoothening the curve....

I hold a strong belief that everyone is dumb, even Einstein (yes, the person who defines the word "genius"). Now you might say, "Really? No I don't believe you, Einstein was the smartest person, he discovered relativity, he got a freaking NOBEL prize!" And I will say, "no Physics guy, EVEN Einstein was dumb" But here's the difference my friend. Einstein read a lot of books. Maxwell read a lot of books. Newton read a lot of books. Feynman read OH so many books. Every single person became smart at what they do because they spent such a long time with their craft. Alone. In their formative years. Reading, analysing, making improvements, getting better everyday. They weren't born geniuses. I encourage you to watch Feynman's video where he said the same thing. He says he's not special at all, and he just read a lot of books. So my point is, don't shy away from Feynman's lectures because they are a treasure trove of knowledge. They are very intuitive and very very interesting. Please give them an honest chance, and then, who knows, you'll be the person to reconcile gravity with the standard model of physics! Best of luck! ^_^

Well that is easy we know that light travels at the speed of light so if light particle or photon encounteres electron the electron will bounced in direction perpendicular to its collision of the photon and the photon in the opposite direction now do that for large amount of electron and you will get that light bends in slightly different direction and the bending is proportional to the frequency of the photon at small scale and the density of the medium in large scale if it's encountering if it's monochromatic light then heavier or denser medium will bend it more and since light travels the same speed no lower this causes the light to bends slightly in different direction and higher frequencies bends more since they transfer more energy and more momentum to the electron which will transfer the same momentum to the photon and the other things when people say that light travels slower in denser medium it's not true light travels the same speed but it's bouncing in every direction electron will come to it so it will travel more distance per the same time then traveling in straight line so it appears to travel slower here is the answer from your question I hope it helps

since wave speed is a contant (c), the product frequency (f) times wavelength (L) has the following restriction when taking intervals (delta: D): c = f*L -> 0 = Df*L + f*DL + Df*DL as in calculus Df*DL :=0 implies DL = -L*Df/f and times 1=f/f DL = -c*Df/f^2 So intervals of constant wavelength would match intervals of constant frequency divided by a square law of frequency. I thought that this were why at high frequency there are no power, since DL are to small for having some energy within them, but I think now is wrong. Have you seen this relation DL=-c Df/f^2 while researching Plank/Feynman sources?

Classical physics consider many quantities to be continuous, like position is continuous, time is continuous, energy is continuous. But among them Democritus, Maharshi Kanad and John Dalton proposed matter to be discrete. How could they know that without sufficient technology? What made them think that matter is discrete and made of countable atoms? I know this would be useless to think about since we know it today that matter, energy and many other physical quantities are discrete at the quantum level. But if I were a middle age physicist, I would argue against Dalton's atomic theorem and propose continuous matter.
@endersteveee
18 сағат бұрын
I think you're COMBINING two different ideas and misinterpreting their significance. When Democritus, Maharshi Kanad, and Dalton proposed that matter is discrete, they were suggesting that if you keep dividing matter into smaller and smaller pieces, you will eventually reach a fundamental, indivisible unit-which they called "atoms." These atoms are discrete in the sense that you cannot divide them further into smaller pieces, unlike continuous matter, which can be divided infinitely. There’s no classical theory that suggests atoms themselves are continuous or some sort of unbroken lump. What they meant by "discrete" is that matter is made up of these individual, countable particles (atoms), not an unbroken continuum. Regarding your point about the quantization of other things (like energy at the quantum level), the people you're talking about (Democritus, Kanad, Dalton) had no knowledge of quantum mechanics or the existence of subatomic particles like electrons or quarks. Their theories were based purely on trying to answer the question: "What is matter made of?" They were not concerned with quantization at the quantum level, since they didn't even know about the internal structure of atoms. TLDR; So, the idea that matter is discrete in the form of atoms is SEPERATE from the quantum-level discussions about energy, time, or space being quantized. "atoms are quantised/discrete" makes no sense(within our context). [Also sorry for so long para...and hope it kinda made sense of the point i was trying to convince] -------------------------------------------------------------- kinda useless talk below, if you really care/not convinced: If you want to expand on the idea of continuous matter and why it might not be the right question at first place (atleast in the context of what we are discussing here, quantisation of things), here you go: When you talk about continuous matter, i think you might be envisioning a scenario where matter can be divided infinitely without ever reaching a fundamental unit. This was a common belief before the atomic theory gained traction, with the idea that matter could be split endlessly, much like how you can infinitely divide a line in geometry. However, the question itself-whether matter is continuous or discrete-assumes that there's a simple choice between the two, but this binary perspective doesn't fit well with how the concept of matter evolved. The ancient philosophers like Democritus, Kanad, and Dalton weren't concerned with proving that matter was discrete in the modern quantum sense; they were responding to the question, "How far can matter be divided?" Their answer was based on thought experiments, not empirical technology. The key issue is that the notion of "continuous matter" is problematic because it lacks practical utility. If matter were continuous, there would be no smallest building block, no basic structure on which chemical properties could rely....its same way as saying a building has no fundametal units (bricks), why? becos the idea of a building becomes abstract and impractical.
@DrDeuteron

I agree about Dalton--he got it from chemistry though--stoichiometry points to atoms? But at the time, classical physics says a discreet bunch of atoms should crumble like sand, unless they're charged: then they have to radiate away all their energy. So I agree--I'd probably be in the wrong camp, too.

@@endersteveee thanks for developing my concepts on Dalton's atomic theory since I am just a 14 year old boy. As you showed that continuous matter is like saying that a building has no bricks. Here my point of argue is what the bricks are made of. Bricks are made of soil and it is seen that we can make houses with just soil(not making bricks out of it). But for long-lasting of the house we make bricks out of soil and then house out of bricks. Just like that think a continuous lump of hydrogen and a continuous lump of oxygen. We can have as small part of it as we want. Now let's take 1 liter of oxygen and 2 liters of hydrogen and mix it. It would be a mixture. But to be more stable in this condition oxygen and hydrogen will make bonds and make a particle of water. You could say that now water is discrete but since we can have as small part of hydrogen and oxygen as we want, we can also have as small part of water as we want. So water is also continuous. Oxygen and hydrogen can make bonds in different proportions, so we can get hydrogen peroxide. But they can't make bonds in all proportions. Consider it to be their chemical property. All the chemical processes seems consistent. Hence I would stand for continuous matter. And now I don't feel it completely useless because unique thoughts make revolutionary theories.

Great explanation but one question wasn't answered intuitively. How is the process of balls falling to the quanta levels reflected in real life with the standing waves? It's not like there are actual planks below the standing waves and the waves physically fall to these levels. In my head what is happening in the real life is these waves that are not exactly at their quanta levels lose some of their energy until they reach that quantized level. But what is the intuition behind this loss of energy. Also, what happens to that energy that gets lost? Is it emitted somewhere or it didn't exist in the first place? Maybe you could dig deeper into that topic. Again, great video but it opens more questions that need intuitive explanations.

The argument does not follow from the premises. The blackbody spectrum depends uniquely on temperature, this is true. But the temperature of the box does not depend uniquely on its energy: the size of the box matters as well, since its size will determine the possible wavelengths of the normal modes. If you give x amount of energy to a box of a small size its temperature will increase by some amount (assuming reached equilibrium). Give x energy to a box the size of a truck, its temperature will increase way less than the first box. This is important because it is wrong to assume each frequency receives a discrete amount of energy if we also assume the energy of a mode depends on its amplitude. The physical reason the blackbody spectrum does not diverge at larger frequencies is exactly because larger frequencies have much more degrees of freedom that must be "occupied" before the amplitude of that same mode can increase. For the zero-node mode, there is only one degree of freedom. Thus any energy associated with this mode will inevitably increase its amplitude, but not infinitely: the maximum amplitude is set by the size of the box. As soon as the energy exceeded such a limit the energy would be instead distributed to the next available mode. This means that at higher energies the bulk of the energy is distributed to shorter wavelengths. Remember that for higher temperature the blackbody spectrum only apparently changes by simply moving the peak to shorter wavelengths. In truth what happens is that the spectrum is also scaled up intensity, meaning the absolute intensity of the "red part" to the far right for a lower temperature is actually the same as that of the spectrum at a higher temperature: it looks smaller because more energy is distributed to higher frequencies. The increasing degrees of freedom of the higher frequencies is the true source of the quantization, nothing to do with "energy coming in chunks".

so you want to say that amplitude sets limit to carry energy by a particular mode of wave and the increase in d.o.f causes more distribution of energy with growing frequency resulting reduction of intensity after a point?

@@lawandorder-e3d the increase of degrees of freedom allows more energy to be stored at the same frequency, so basically yes

Mahesh, I can't understand why do colored objects continue to absorb light? After absorbing light, if the electrons of the colored object absorbed light and go higher level then If it radiates wave, then the total light absorbed by the object is zero. Also why does the electron go to a higher level and go to a lower level after getting energy?

Well becouse they are absorbing sunlight which is polychromatic which means it's multitude of colors it will absorb the color which the electron orbital of its atom will absorb which is unique to every material so it will continuesly absorb sunlight and reflect the light it will reflect so I hope you understand it

good question. vague answer: 1) the time scale for energy losing inter-molecular collisions is much shorter than that for radiation (> 1/f), so it doesn't need to take the same path back to the ground state. 2) even in rarefied gases (say, stellar atmospheres), where BB radiation is being absorbed by atomic lines and emitted at the same frequency (doppler notwithstanding), the emission is into 4 pi steradian which is much larger (in the divisor) compared to the line-of-sight from the star to a telescope on Earth, so the power-per-steradian is small, and the lines are dark.

But couldn't you also argue that when you introduce quanta, all the tennis balls / photons in-between get moved up instead of down, thus making the graph explode even more?

I must be missing something: The equation E = hf is a straight line where "h" is the slope. So how does that explain the curve in the video? yes I know the graph shows E vs wavelengh and wavelength = C / frequency.

The black body radiation curve shows the energy density of radiation emitted from a black body at each frequency. E = hf is the energy of a single photon of that frequency.

As the frequency increases there are more ways for standing waves to be set up - all contributing to the energy density. But with quantization it limits the energy to fixed intervals and causing an ulitmate reduction in energy density emitted at very high frequencies.

But Mahesh, <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="761">12:41</a> isn't the Energy of a standing wave = m(A^2)(W^2) {W--> Omega} and isn't Omega (W) = 2pi times the frequency ? help me i am confused , please.

Is there really such thing as infinite frequency? There should be a limit because of Planck length. So the max freq will be 1/10^-35, or am i wrong?
@DrDeuteron

while the Planck formula is thermodynamic (k_B), it was also prematurely quantum (hbar) and special relativistic (c), the Planck units require general relativity (G), and that is not part of Planck's law. If you want cut off the formula at 3e42 Hz, go right ahead, no one will notice.

Can anyone please tell then, who gave plank that graph or result to compare and find out or figure out the value of h should be what is it today ? I mean in this video, basically it was assume that the graph should be this and concept of quanta and h was introduced to make the catastrophe match it. Also, wasn't this graph a result of plank thinking of quanta then quantizing the energy or frequencies then the graph came, so thinking it the other way round feels wrong , so what exactly made plank think of quanta and discretizing them ? Do anyone know about it?
