Photoelectric Effect & Birth of Quantum Mechanics

Explore the fascinating history of the photoelectric effect, a key discovery in the birth of quantum mechanics and the Nobel Prize-winning work of Albert Einstein. In this video, I explain the experiment that challenged the wave theory of light and led to the particle theory of light, where light is not a wave, but a photon. We discover the simple and elegant equation that Einstein proposed to explain the energy of the emitted electrons, and understand how this revolutionized our understanding of energy and the quantum world. This is a must-watch for anyone interested in the history of science, quantum mechanics, and the work of Albert Einstein.

I too start crying, when I hear Quantum Physics 😭😭

[deadpoolgaming]

*Sir, you forgot to mention the name "Max Planck"* 👈

[sabeehb]

Actually it was Max Planck whose idea it was in 1900 (5 years before Einstein's photoelectric effect) that energy is emitted in discrete packets called quanta rather than being continuous as was thought at the time. E= hv was given by Planck. Einstein used it and built on it.

[johndododoe]

Quantum physics also came from Niels Bohr's model of the hydrogen atom and how it's electron can only orbit at fixed energy levels, the difference between which provide the characteristic color of light emitted as the electron drops down one level. These levels exist in all atoms and provide their characteristic colors.

very Nice Sir ! it's very nice to see physics on shorts! you are doing great sir.

[aakardev]

Thank you. I liked this simplicity and knowledge sharing.

[viditgangwar]

Very well explained... 🙏
Please sir make a video on different statistical distribution 🤗

[ajaysauravminhas]

namaste sir thankyou very much for nuclear and particle phy. playlist 😊

[SandraJones-hx]

Thanks for sharing! Just a quick off-topic question: I have USDT in my OKX wallet and I have the recovery phrase. What is the best way to transfer them to Binance?

[engineerahmed]

Newton also said light is a particle... Every particle has wave nature. The smaller the particle, the lower its frequency. Gamma rays acts pretty much like beta E=mC^2 is not energy mass conversion, but m=E/C^2 is the mass of light particle escaping nucleus of Atom

[narotamsingh]

Sr plz explain why photo electric current does not increase while increasing frequency of incident photon although K. E. Of Photo electron increases. This statement contradicts the relations I = q/t & I = naeV. 🙏🙏

[abdurrauf]

Sir, kindly make a video explaining the history of black body radiation.

[Petermomo]

I had to listen to the idea about three times but know I get it light is not a wave but are indeed photons. T=han+ks

[deepdubey]

What actually is light? Can you please reply.
What should I consider it ?

[danrazART]

But it is also a wave

In higher dimensions beyond 3.

[InvisibleshadowD]

the color of the light depends on its frequency and wavelength, not only just frequency okay

[mayanksrivastava]

if the baby quantum mechanics is like this what will be an adult quantum mechanics 😂

[learnsosimple]

Padhane nhi aata hai koi jarurat nhi hai video bnane ka ghar pe aaram karo❌

Beautiful Mind.

Crack in the 🪞, that's how we can breakfast the illusion of the beauty!

Watch U, self, before someone will give crack to myself
