Study Notes
Quantum Theory
- There is always a central point in quantum theory.
Heliocentric vs Geocentric Models
- Heliocentric Model - Sun centered
- Geocentric Model - Earth centered
Planck's Law
- c = 2πf
- λ = c/f
- f = c/λ
Electromagnetic (EM) Waves
- Frequency - vibrations (Hertz)
- Energy - Watts /Boltz
- Wavelength - seconds / minutes /time
Different Types of Waves
- Radio Waves - AM, FM
- Micro waves - Oven
- Infrared Waves - Night vision goggles
- Visible Light - Sunlight, flashlights, light bulbs
- Ultraviolet - Sunlight
- X-rays - airport scanners, human x-rays, detect elements
- Gamma rays - brain disorders, tomography, PET Scan
