What is the smallest portion of energy known so far? Could it be found within microwave background or amoung neutrinos?
Thanks!
Thanks!
The smallest portion of energy is known as a quantum, which is the fundamental unit of energy in quantum mechanics.
In quantum mechanics, energy is measured in terms of Planck's constant, which is a fundamental constant of nature.
According to the principles of quantum mechanics, there is a limit to how small energy can be, known as the Planck energy. This is the smallest possible amount of energy that can exist.
In classical physics, energy can be divided into smaller parts, but in quantum mechanics, energy is considered to be quantized and cannot be divided into smaller parts.
In Einstein's famous equation, E=mc², energy and matter are shown to be interchangeable, meaning that matter can be converted into energy and vice versa.
