AI Thread Summary
Comprehensive proof of Planck's energy relation for photons is not definitively available in science, similar to the status of Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity, which has not been contradicted by experiments but cannot be considered absolute proof. The scientific community accepts Planck's relation as valid due to its consistent satisfaction of all known tests. Users are encouraged to explore recommended resources for a deeper understanding of photon energy determination. Engaging with these materials can clarify doubts and foster further discussion. Overall, Planck's energy relation remains a foundational concept in physics.

please let me know if there is comprehensive proof of the Plancks energy relation for photon

Comprehensive proof? You ask for something not available in all of science. Here's an example: Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity has NEVER been contradicted by any experiment...so far. Is this comprehensive proof that the SR is correct? NO. But, so far it satisfies every scientific test known to man, so we accept it as "true". Tomorrow, however, some scientific experiment may contradict it and we'd have to reassess our whole body of science. And we would.

Until then, you may as well accept Planck's energy for a photon.

zingmobile, Please notice the three websites in post #2 above. If you click on each one you will find explanations and examples of how the energy of a photon is determined. Once you have visited those sites and studied them, then, if you have doubts or questions, come right back here and ask away...folks here are ready to help you learn about science.
