classical physics views energy changes as continuous. In the Quantum concept, energy changes occur in tiny discrete units called quanta

EXPLAIN WHAT ARE THE INHEReNT PROPERTIES OF CLASSICAL PHYSICS. AND HOW THEY SEEMS IN ADEQUATE.EXPLAIN SOME OF THE PHYSICAL PHENOMENA AND EXPLANATATION DATA .EXPLAIN HOW THE DEVIATION FROM THE CLASSI?

Classical physics relies on deterministic laws, continuous quantities, and a distinct separation between particles and waves. However, it fails to explain certain phenomena, such as the behavior of subatomic particles in quantum mechanics. Deviation from classical physics becomes evident in experiments like the double-slit experiment, where particles exhibit wave-like behavior, challenging the classical notion of determinism and separate particle-wave duality. This deviation led to the development of quantum mechanics to describe the behavior of particles at the microscopic level.


Can you explain the difference between the usage of 'e' and 'z' in the context of this topic"?

The letter 'e' is commonly used in English words, while 'z' is used less frequently. The choice between them depends on the specific word and its pronunciation.


Can you explain the difference between parallel and antiparallel alignment in magnetic fields?

In parallel alignment, magnetic fields run in the same direction, while in antiparallel alignment, they run in opposite directions.


How does the rate of temperature change depend on the temperature difference between the two beakers?

The rate of temperature change typically depends on the temperature difference between the two beakers according to Newton's Law of Cooling. The greater the temperature difference, the faster the rate of temperature change between the two beakers.


What couldn't Rutherford model explain?

The Rutherford model of atom has neither addressed the process of radiation of atoms nor could it explain the stability of the atom in spite of the revolving electrons around the nucleus. According to electrodynamics the electron should radiate electromagnetic waves. A simple calculation shows that an electron starting from a circular orbit of the size of an atom will spiral into the nucleus by radiating away its energy in a very short time, about 10-8 s. This makes stability of the atom impossible, which is not the case.
