I think an explanation of how qunatization of electrons and photons are connected can help. As the first one is levels of energy and the second one is the absorbtion of energy. I see that they both have quantization - they "jump" from one possible value to another; but is this the only...
I think I am starting to understand this.
What I understand is that the waves describe the path of the photon to the interaction which happens all at once becouse its a quanta. The energy of the photon is related to its frequency. Are different interactions/photons derived from the same wave or...
firstly, I would like to mention my appreciation for both of your comments.
Now let's get to my questions :
If the energy of a wave is not its intensity, than what is it? and how do you convert it to other stuff?
some sources I read used photons as examples to quanta. Some said its the...
That I understand, and because I know this it confuses me more.
Ill be more organized :
Is the energy of the wave is its intensity(which means total value over a specific time if I understand right)?
are quantas levels of energy or the difference between the possible levels of energy...
After some more research I have more specific questions :
what is the relationship between a wave and a photon? is every photon a peak? is every peak the sum of a couple photons which each represents a quanta?
I am very confused. Here are a couple of facts I can't connect :
Quanta is the Delta of values of energy.
Quanta is a packet of energy.
a packet doesn't really stop at a finite distance from its peak.
The Energy of a wave is the total energy of its quantas.
