Zapper - That was very precisely put and has answered my query regarding the electron transition spectrum and the obvious flaw in the reasoning on that site.
Still, can you please tell - What is it that produces light due to vibration of the molecules. I can guess its related to inter...
The filament of a bulb when it gets heated to some threshold level generates the visible light.
My query:
1. Why is it called electromagnetic then? Here, if i understand correctly, the waves are produced by the energy emitted by the transition of the electrons between various orbits of the...
Assumption in above logic: Energy is associated only with tasks needing resistance. When things attract (or in the process of attaining a state of least resistance) "energy" is not involved.
This is invalid. When the masses attract each other, the stored potential energy gets converted to...
