Geological | Early in the twentieth century, Max Planck recognized the discrete nature of radiant energy exchanges and proposed the quantum theory of electromagnetic radiation. His experiments showed that energy is transferred in short wave trains or bursts in which each burst carries radiant energy, Q, proportional to the frequency, of the wave, so that: Q = hv where h = the universal, or Planck's constant, with a value of 6.625 X 10 to the -34 joule second. (a joule, in physics, is a unit of work equal to 10 million ergs.). (references) |
