identify data sources, gather, process and analyse information and use available evidence to assess Einstein's contribution to quantum theory and its relation to black body radiation
so far i have:
Einsteins contribution to the quantum theory has changed and revolutionized views on the classical wave theory. The classical wave theory states that light was a wave that could be reflected, diffracted, refracted and absorbed.
Planck did not propose a particle theory of light but Einstein successfully explained the photoelectric effect by using Plancks photons as a basis for his explanation to the quantum theory. Einsteins equation states:
E = hf = W + Ek
Although it was Einstein who modernized views on the quantum theory, debate still arises over physical historians about the true originator of the quantum theory.
what else should i add? i cant seem to find any decent info on this dot point, this is more of a longer version of the one in the stdents learn to column and there isnt sufficient info on that even
