A quantized condition refers to a specific state or value that is constrained to discrete or distinct levels, such as multiples of a minimum unit (quantum). In physics, quantized conditions often arise in systems that exhibit quantization of energy levels or other properties according to fundamental principles like quantum mechanics.
Something that is quantized means that it can only exist in discrete, specific amounts or values, rather than being continuous. This concept is often seen in physics, where certain properties like energy, charge, or angular momentum are restricted to particular quantized levels.
Charge is quantized because it is always found in discrete amounts, typically in units of the elementary charge, e. This quantization of charge is a fundamental property of matter observed in experiments and explained through theories like quantum mechanics. The existence of quantized charge leads to fundamental physical phenomena, such as the Coulomb force between charged particles.
Yes, matter is quantized, meaning it is made up of discrete units called atoms, which in turn are made up of subatomic particles such as protons, neutrons, and electrons. These subatomic particles have quantized properties like energy levels and angular momentum.
Quantized energy states refer to specific discrete levels of energy that an atom, molecule, or other system can have. These levels are separated by specific energy gaps, and only certain values of energy are allowed within these quantized levels. This concept is a key aspect of quantum mechanics and explains phenomena like atomic spectra and electron energy levels.
From wiki: Quanta is the minimum amount of any physical entity involved in an interaction. Behind this, one finds the fundamental notion that a physical property may be "quantized," referred to as "the hypothesis of quantization. This means that the magnitude can take on only certain discrete values. There is a related term of quantum number. An example of an entity that is quantized is the energy transfer of elementary particles of matter (called fermions) and of photons and other bosons.

They have fixed energy values.
Quantized. (Number 4 if you are using what I think you are using.)
Digital quantized information and analog is just information. Like the letter "i" on your screen is digital and made up of a few pixels= quantized. The letter "i" drawn on a piece of paper is not quantized = analog.
It is quantised.
No. A quantized orbit means the energy is locked in as a constant. It would have to switch to a different orbit to emit energy.
The Bohr quantization condition states that the angular momentum of an electron orbiting a nucleus in an atom is quantized and can only take on certain discrete values that are integer multiples of Planck's constant divided by (2\pi). This quantization condition helps explain the stability of electron orbits in atoms and is a key aspect of the Bohr model of the atom.
Electrical charge is quantized. (negative in an electron, as an electron has exactly -1 fundamental unit of charge) The other two would be the energy levels in the atoms and the emitted energy.

The electromagnetic spectrum provides evidence for quantized changes in energy levels of atoms. This is seen in the emission or absorption of specific discrete frequencies of light, which is a result of electrons jumping between quantized energy levels within the atom. This phenomenon is described by quantum mechanics.
