Formula for energy:
E = hv (where v=frequency; h=Planck's constant)
and
E= 1/2mv2 (New's kinetic energy).
How are these two formulas related? For starters, according to Newton, energy here increases exponentially to velocity, yet for Planck, the increase is linear to the frequency (which in a way is like velocity if you consider that the frequency increases 1:1 with velocity when doppler shifted).
I can't see the real connection between these two formulas. Is there a way to convert between them?
Thanks.
