Light
relaiton of light speed, waveleingth, and frequency
C=π΄π
C=π΄π
relation of light speed, frequency, and waveleingth
waveleingth (π΄)
the distance between two identical points in a wave, measured in meters
the distance between two identical points in a wave, measured in meters
waveleingth (π΄)
frequency (π)
The amount of cycles in a second, formaly measured in Hertz
The number of cycles per second, formally measured in hertz
frequency (π)
Blackbody radiation
any solid object emits light, the frequency of which depends on the objectβs temperature

Blackbody Radiation
Blackbody radiation equation
(8πΏπ^2)/c^3)*(hπ/(e^(hπ/KT)-1)
((8πΏπ^2)/c^3)*(hπ/(e^(hπ/KT)-1)
Blackbody Radiation Equation
frequency max of blackbody radiation
Wiens law: π΄max=(hc)/(4.9663 Kb*T)
Wiens law: π΄max=(hc)/(4.9663 Kb*T)
frequency max of blackbody radiation
photoelectric effect
when light of a high enough frequency hits metal, that metal will eject electrons, the higher the frequency the faster the electronβs motion
