Ok, so here is my question. Basically I believe that frequency and amplitude have no effect on each other. But in a black body, the intensity of the radiation is directly affected by the wavelength. With the intensity being the square of the amplitude, and wavelength being the inverse of the frequency. DOes that mean that frequency affect amplitude, or am I not understanding something correctly.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
The intensity is different for different frequencies, but I would not say "frequency affects the amplitude".
If you travel, your position depends on the time, but does time affect your position?

If we release an electron around a positively charged sphere, the initial state of electron is a linear combination of Hydrogen-like states. According to quantum mechanics, evolution of time would not change this initial state because the potential is time independent. However, classically we expect the electron to collide with the sphere. So, it seems that the quantum and classics predict different behaviours!
