    Black Bodies, the UV Catastrophe, and Plank's Quantum assertion

    From what I said: "why was it concluded from classical physics that the energy should be proportional to the frequency?" What I am struggling with is why was it ever postulated that infinite energy would be released at higher frequencies? Why wasnt it said that 'In order to emit higher...

    Black Bodies, the UV Catastrophe, and Plank's Quantum assertion

    What exactly did Max Planck assert regarding the discrete quantum nature of energy that was so significant to the observations obtained of black bodies, which contradicted the classical predictions of the time? i.e. the UV catastrophe? My overall understanding is flawed I wonder if you...
