Is the E=hw Law for Photons Infallible?

AI Thread Summary
Experiments questioning the E=hw relationship for low-energy photons suggest it may need correction, as E=hw is not a fundamental law like thermodynamic or Newtonian laws. Instead, it represents a correlation between a massless particle's energy and its wave's angular frequency. Some discussions hint at research on time-dependencies of Planck's constant (h), but substantial findings remain elusive. The conversation emphasizes the need for further investigation into the nuances of photon energy. Overall, the validity of E=hw in specific contexts continues to be a topic of scientific inquiry.

Has anyone ever come across any experiments suggesting that the E=hw law for the energy of photons may require some correction, especially in the case of low energy photons ?

E = homework is not a law, in the sense of thermodynamic laws or Newton's laws. E = homework is nothing more than a relationship between a massless particle's energy and the corresponding wave's angular frequency. There may be some research on time-dependencies of h, but I don't know of anything serious.
 
Thread 'Question about pressure of a liquid'
I am looking at pressure in liquids and I am testing my idea. The vertical tube is 100m, the contraption is filled with water. The vertical tube is very thin(maybe 1mm^2 cross section). The area of the base is ~100m^2. Will he top half be launched in the air if suddenly it cracked?- assuming its light enough. I want to test my idea that if I had a thin long ruber tube that I lifted up, then the pressure at "red lines" will be high and that the $force = pressure * area$ would be massive...
I feel it should be solvable we just need to find a perfect pattern, and there will be a general pattern since the forces acting are based on a single function, so..... you can't actually say it is unsolvable right? Cause imaging 3 bodies actually existed somwhere in this universe then nature isn't gonna wait till we predict it! And yea I have checked in many places that tiny changes cause large changes so it becomes chaos........ but still I just can't accept that it is impossible to solve...
