Quantum mechanics is the theory that we use to describe the
... In 1905, Albert Einstein used the idea of quantised states to explain the photoelectric effect. He explained the observed frequency dependence of the emitted particles by postulating that light energy too comes in tiny discrete bits, or quanta. These discrete light packets, or photons, also come in ...

... region in which uniform electric and magnetic fields are present. If B = (400μT)i, find the electric field E. We know: This is a crossed fields problem with the two fields perpendicular to each other. B is perpendicular to v, out of the page. Since B is perpendicular, it does no work on the electron ...

It does not mean that if one measures the position of one particle over and over again, the average of the results will be given by On the contrary, the first measurement (whose outcome is indeterminate) will collapse the wave function to a spike at the value actually obtained, and the subsequent me ...

Wave mechanics and the Schrödinger equation
... We turn now to the second ground-breaking experiment in the development of quantum theory. When a metallic surface is exposed to electromagnetic radiation, above a certain threshold frequency, the light is absorbed and electrons are emitted (see figure, right). In 1902, Philipp Eduard Anton von Lena ...
