    Listen very carefully. If you want to learn the nuances of black body radiation that no other video or text explains in a historical and common sense manner, then watch this gentleman's videos and pay very close attention to his every word.

      I agree. I saw many videos before I landed on this one. I thought that I was never going to understand the derivation of this equation. But thanks to this fine gentleman, I can now derive this equation. Really good work.

      Agreed 100%. This is a magnificent exposition......absolutely masterful.
      Its clarity allows one to reflect on the outsize role the cavity geometry played in Rayleigh-Jeans strategy; it seems classical EM & thermodynamics "failed" because they essentially assumed the power into the box could drive an infinite number of overtones which doesn't feel quite realistic; Rayleigh's success modeling the analogous scenario (25 years earlier) of standing sound waves in a cubical room surely dominated his thinking here. That said, we must assume alternative strategies to model the cavity were tried (Planck tried for months, right?) so it wasn't just down to R&J having a flawed approach. It does make one reflect on how to classically model the cavity walls (or a a non-enclosed black body) as an IR/visible/UV "panel antenna". In short, R&J's decision to ignore the wall oscillators may have simplified the model but at what cost?
      Finally, it does seem alarmist that back in the day, just because the experimental results didn't fit this convoluted R&J conceptual model, that (some) physicists labelled it a "catastrophe"; there must have been some serious academic power politics, ulterior motives, alternative agendas, and ego tripping going on behind the scenes; especially as Wien's 1896 alternative classical model (the extension of his displacement law) was far closer than R&J. The fact that RJ's approach is given the status of "law" is extremely provocative given how poorly it adheres to the data; why would something so far off be called a "law" instead of just a failed hunch?
      Anyway, we're all fortunate to have access to such world class, thought-provoking content as this.

    As an intermediate step, the Raleigh-Jeans law calculates the number of times each frequency fits an integer number of times between two surfaces as standing waves, but would not the formula overstate the number of standing waves because most waves leaving the first surface would reflect off the second surface at an angle and be absorbed by a third surface for the third surface not being an integer number of nodes away from the second?

    I didn't realise the derivative of the formula for the volume of a sphere is the formula for the area of the sphere.
    I got confused when dV was written as = 4πr^2 (the formula for area) dr. I get it now.
    Going back and listening again I hear professor actually say this ... Volume = area X delta radius (paraphrase).

    Sir at 15:00 you said for a frequency range the no. of standing waves will be twice as due to polarisation for each axis there are two perpendicular directions possible but at a given time it will oscillate in a single direction then why are we multiplying it by 2?

  • @MILANKRISHNADas
    @MILANKRISHNADas 3 месяца назад

    II have a question regarding degrees of freedom of an oscillating harmonic oscillator. You have mentioned that kinetic and potential energies are two degrees of freedom which contribute towards
    Equipartition energy of the oscillator. My question is, if heat arises only from kinetic movement of molecules of material particles, then how potential energy could be associated with temperature and
    Boltzmann constant while calculating the average euipartition energy of the oscillating black body radiation as a whole?

  • @zaikindenis1775
    @zaikindenis1775 Год назад +1

    Thank you for the video! At the begining we are talking about energy per time per suface area, but at the end we derive for per volume? And one more quesion, how to generalize the result obtained for a cube to any volume with any shape? Thank you!

    • @FortheLoveofPhysics
      @FortheLoveofPhysics  Год назад +2

      The experimental observations are for the cavity "hole" hence we speak of per unit surface area. But the theoretical calculations are for the cavity volume, hence we take per unit volume. But it should not be an issue as the radiation coming out of the hole is just a sampling of the cavity volume, so what is true for the cavity radiation per unit volume, should be the same as surface radiation per unit surface area

  • @OkAnup
    @OkAnup Год назад

    you said blackbody radiation curve is independent of the material in the beginning but used the electrostatic property of metal to explain why standing waves arise from the cavity in deriving rayleigh jeans law; shouldn't it be independent of the conductivity of the blackbody?
