The Planck's Distribution of Radiation describes the energy volume density radiated of a black body in terms of frequency or wavelenght. A black body is a material or a physical device that absorbs light and radiates it back not as usual reflected light but as the outcome of electrons reducing their energy levels. The formula is basically an interpolation of Wiens formula and some of plancks considerations on statistical physics. It casually introduces quantization of energy as a mathematical artiluge to fit results, but agrees with the actual understanding of photons as discrete particles. Hope this help you some bit ;-D

Who is the founder of quantum theory of radiation?

Max Planck


Who were the scientist who studied about radiation?

Many. Stefan, Kirchhoff, Wien, Prevost, Max Planck etc. Out of those Max Planck was the revolutionary one who introduced quantum concept on radiation.


Who came up with black body radiation?

Originally Max Planck.


How are energy and frequency of electromagnetic radiation related?

Energy = hf where h is Planck's Constant and f is the radiation frequency.


What is the base unit of Plancks constant?

Planck's constant relates the energy level of radiation due to electrons moving from one energy level to another, by the formula Energy = (Planck's constant) x (frequency of radiation). Therefore the dimensions of Planck's constant are (energy)/(frequency) which means Joules x seconds In fact Planck's constant = 6.67 x 10-34 joule.seconds.

Which form of electromagnetic radiation has highest level of energy how can you tell?

Energy (E) of photons of electromagnetic radiation is given by Planck's equation ..E = hf .. h = Planck constant (6.625^-34 Js), f = frequency (Hz)So E is proportional to frequency .. radiation with the highest frequency is Gamma

When did max plank discover the quantum theory?

Max Planck discovered that radiant energy was a proportional to the frequency of the radiation, E=hf and the constant of proportionality is Planck' Constant, h.


How many photons are in a 1.00 mJ burst of this radiation?

Each photon has ( h · f ) joules of energy.( ' h ' is Planck's Konstant. ' f ' is the frequency of the radiation.)In order to collect 1 mJ of energy from the radiation, you have to gather up(0.001)/( h · f ) photons. ' h ' is Planck's Konstant, 6.63 x 10-34 joule-second.' f ' is the frequency of the radiation, which is not given in the question.


How do you find energy when given frequency?

The energy of a photon of electromagnetic radiation is(Photon's frequency) times (Planck's Konstant) .
