    At 4:39, there is a slight mistake. He knew the frequency, and this allowed him to calculate the speed, which came out as 3x10^8, reinforcing Maxwell’s theory

    has anyone heard of the double slit? it's when you have 3 lines which will leave you 2 slits, throw a particle through the slits on a screen you will have 2 particals on the screen, but if you throw electrons they land in many places, here's an example

    Can an oscillating quantum particle create "harmonic distortion" like RF waves, to other energy levels? For example, in RF waves, you can observe the harmonics in other frequencies. Can something similar be happening with quantum particles, creating "harmonic particles" in other frequency levels or other fields that the particle is interacting with?

    You say at 0:53 that because light can be diffracted it cannot be a particle, but electrons can be diffracted and the Planck's constant shows this. Is it possible that light is a particle with a really, really small mass? I'm pretty bad at physics so I may have misunderstood something.

    • @jamesfrazzle2155
      @jamesfrazzle2155 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Wave particle duality means that all particles can exhibit wave-like properties, and all waves can exhibit particle like properties. So light can be particles called photons, but they are massless, not a very small mass

    How thick is the probe in an STM? It looks like a few atoms. If so how do they get it that thin and still structurally sound? Further how do they make such accurate adjustments to its height?

    • @ScienceShorts
      @ScienceShorts  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yep, it is a couple atoms thick at the tip. It's a crystal effectively, so it's strong enough. It doesn't need to touch anything of course. They make accurate movements with piezo-electric crystals. If you apply a p.d. across them, they change shape ever so slightly.

      How does having sparks in 2 different things mean that a field is involved? Is one connected to a power supply? How close r they?

    • @plancktime1943
      @plancktime1943 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Hertz applied a high p.d across the spark gap of his transmitter. As sparks flew across the gap, radio waves propagated outwards from the transmitter. (the power supply you mentioned was connected to the transmitter which was the first spark gap).
      Remember this experiment was done 20 years after Maxwell showed mathematically the existence of electromagnetic waves.
      As the waves went past his receiver (the loop with a gap) because radio waves are propagating oscillating magnetic and electric fields, there was a change in flux in the receiver which caused an emf to be induced and a spark to be observed.
      This showed Hertz that a "changing flux" must have propagated from the transmitter to the receiver. This matched Maxwell's description and prediction of the radio waves perfectly, hence was taken to be experimental evidence for them.
