Planck in 2 Minutes | The Idea That Started Quantum Physics | History of Physics #23
After Einstein reshaped space and time,
Max Planck introduced a new revolution in physics.
Planck discovered that energy is not continuous,
but comes in tiny discrete packets called quanta.
This idea emerged while studying blackbody radiation
and marked the birth of quantum physics.
In this episode of History of Physics, we explore:
– The problem of blackbody radiation
– Planck’s quantum hypothesis
– The idea that energy is quantized
– Why this changed physics forever
This is Video #23 in the chronological History of Physics series.
