1. Classical physics describes large, everyday objects but fails to describe phenomena at the atomic scale. Quantum physics was developed in the early 20th century to address these shortcomings.
2. Quantum physics is counterintuitive, but it is the most successful physical theory ever developed. It underlies our understanding of atoms, molecules, and subatomic particles.
3. Quantum physics recognizes that waves and particles are less distinct than previously thought. Key insights include that light can behave as particles called photons, and particles can behave as waves.

How to Create Map Views in the Odoo 17 ERPCeline George
The map views are useful for providing a geographical representation of data. They allow users to visualize and analyze the data in a more intuitive manner.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
2. • “Classical Physics”:
– developed in 15th to 20th century;
– provides very successful description of “every day,
ordinary objects”
• motion of trains, cars, bullets,….
• orbit of moon, planets
• how an engine works,..
• subfields: mechanics, thermodynamics, electrodynamics,
• Quantum Physics:
• developed early 20th century, in response to
shortcomings of classical physics in describing certain
phenomena (blackbody radiation, photoelectric effect,
emission and absorption spectra…)
• describes “small” objects (e.g. atoms )
3. Quantum Physics
• QP is “weird and counterintuitive”
• “Those who are not shocked when they first come
across quantum theory cannot possibly have
understood it” (Niles Bohr)
• “Nobody feels perfectly comfortable with it “
(Murray Gell-Mann)
• “I can safely say that nobody understands quantum
mechanics” (Richard Feynman) BUT…
• QM is the most successful theory ever developed by
humanity underlies our understanding of atoms,
molecules, condensed matter, nuclei, elementary
particles
• Crucial ingredient in understanding of stars, …
4. Features of QP
• Quantum physics is basically the recognition that
there is less difference between waves and particles
than was thought before
• key insights:
• light can behave like a particle
• particles (e.g. electrons) are indistinguishable
• particles can behave like waves (or wave packets)
• waves gain or lose energy only in "quantized
amounts“
• detection (measurement) of a particle wave will
change suddenly into a new wave
• quantum mechanical interference – amplitudes add
• QP is intrinsically probabilistic
• what you can measure is what you can know
5. WAVE-PICTURE OF RADIATION—
ENERGY FLOW I S CONTI N UOUS
• Radio waves, microwaves, heat waves, light waves, UV-
rays, x-rays and y-rays belong to the family of
electromagnetic waves. All of them are known as
radiation.
• Electromagnetic waves consist of varying electric and
magnetic fields traveling at the velocity of 'c'. The
propagation of electromagnetic waves and their
interaction with matter can be explained with the help of
Maxwell's electromagnetic theory.
6. • Maxwell's theory treated the emission of radiation by a
source as a continuous process.
• A heated body may be assumed to be capable of giving
out energy that travels in the form of waves of all
possible wavelengths.
• In the same way, the radiation incident on a body was
thought to be absorbed at all possible wavelengths.
• The intensity of radiation is given by,
I = 1E12
where E is the amplitude of the electromagnetic wave.
7. • The phenomena of interference, diffraction and
polarization of electromagnetic radiation proved the
wave nature of radiation.
• Therefore, it is expected that it would explain the
experimental observations made on thermal (heat)
radiation emitted by a blackbody.
8. Blackbody radiation
• Types of heat energy transmission are conduction,
convection and radiation.
• Conduction is transfer of heat energy by molecular
vibrations not by actual motion of material. For example,
if you hold one end of an iron rod and the other end of
the rod is put on a flame, you will feel hot some time
later. You can say that the heat energy reaches your hand
by heat conduction.
9. • Convection is transfer of heat by actual motion of.
The hot-air furnace, the hot-water heating system,
and the flow of blood in the body are examples.
• Radiation The heat reaching the earth from the
sun cannot be transferred either by conduction or
convection since the space between the earth and
the sun has no material medium. The energy is
carried by electromagnetic waves that do not
require a material medium for propagation. The
kind of heat transfer is called thermal radiation.
10. • Blackbody is defined as the body which can absorb all
energies that fall on it. It is something like a black hole. No
lights or material can get away from it as long as it is
trapped. A large cavity with a small hole on its wall can be
taken as a blackbody.
1
11. •Blackbody radiation: Any radiation that enters the
hole is absorbed in the interior of the cavity, and the
radiation emitted from the hole is called blackbody
radiation.

12. LAWS OF BLACK BODY RADIATION
1. Stefan and Boltzmann’s law: it is found that the
radiation energy is proportional to the fourth power of
the associated temperature.
4
M(T) T
M(T) is actually the area under each curve, σ is called
Stefan’s constant and T is absolute temperature.
13. 2. Wien’s displacement law: the peak of the curve shifts
towards longer wavelength as the temperature falls and it
satisfies
peakT b
This law is quite useful for measuring the temperature
of a blackbody with a very high temperature. You can
see the example for how to measure the temperature on
the surface of the sun.
where b is called the Wien's constant.
b=2.89X10-3
14. • The above laws describes the blackbody radiation very
well.
• The problem exists in the relation between the radiation
power Mλ(T) and the wavelength λ.
• Blackbody radiation has nothing to do with both the
material used in the blackbody concave wall and the shape
of the concave wall.
• Two typical theoretical formulas for blackbody
radiation : One is given by Rayleigh and Jeans and the
other by Wein.
15. 3.Rayleigh and Jeans
In 1890, Rayleigh and Jeans obtained a formula using
the classical electromagnetic (Maxwell) theory and the
classical equipartition theorem of energy in thermotics.
The formula is given by

8 kT
E( )

16. Rayleigh-Jeans formula was correct for very long
wavelength in the far infrared but hopelessly wrong in the
visible light and ultraviolet region. Maxwell’s
electromagnetic theory and thermodynamics are known as
correct theory. The failure in explaining blackbody
radiation puzzled physicists! It was regarded as ultraviolet
Catastrophe (disaster).

18. PLANCK'S QUANTUM HYPOTHESIS —
Energy is quantized
• Max Planck empirical formula explained the
experimental observations.
• In the process of formulation of the formula, he
assumed that the atoms of the walls of the
blackbody behave like small harmonic
oscillators, each having a characteristic
frequency of vibration, lie further made two
radical assumptions about the atomic oscillators.
19. • (i) An oscillating atom can absorb or mends energy in
discrete units. The indivisible discrete unit of energy , is
the smallest amount of energy which can be absorbed or
emitted by the atom and is called an energy quantum. A
quantum of energy has the magnitude given by
E = hv
where v is the frequency of radiation and ‘h' is a
constant now known as the Planck's constant.
20. • (ii) The energy of the oscillator is quantized. It can have
only certain discrete amounts of energy En.
En= nhv n=1,2,3……
• The hypothesis that radiant energy is emitted or
absorbed basically in a discontinuous summer and in the
form of quanta is known as the Planck's quantum
hypothesis.
• Planck's hypothesis states that radiant energy Is
quantized and implies that an atom exists in certain
discrete energy states. Such states arc called quantum
states and n is called the quantum number.
21. • The atom emits or absorbs energy by jumping from one
quantum state to another quantum state. The
assumption of discrete energy states for an atomic
oscillator (Fig. a) was a departure from the classical
physics and our everyday experience.
2
22. • If we take a mass-spring harmonic oscillator, it can
receive any amount of energy form zero to some
maximum value (Fig. b). Thus, in the real of classical
physics energy always appears to occur with
continuous values and energy exchange between
bodies involves any arbitrary amounts of energy.

23. PARTICLE PICTURE OF RADIATION —
Radiation is a stream of photons
• Max Planck introduced the concept of discontinuous
emission and absorption of radiation by bodies but he
treated the propagation through space as occurring in the
form of continuous waves as demanded by
electromagnetic theory.
• Einstein refined the Planck's hypothesis and invested the
quantum with a clear and distinct identity.
24. • He successfully explained the experimental results of the
photoelectric effect in 1905 and the temperature
dependence of specific heats of solids in 1907 basing on
Planck's hypothesis.
• The photoelectric effect conclusively established that
light behaves as a swam of particles. Einstein extended
Planck's hypothesis as follows:
25. 1. Einstein assumed that the light energy is not
distributed evenly over the whole expanding
wave front but rather remains concentrated in
discrete quanta. He named the energy quanta as
photons. Accordingly, a light beam is regarded
as a stream of photons travelling with a velocity
' c' .
2. An electromagnetic wave having a frequency f
contains identical photons, each having an
energy hƒ. The higher the frequency of the
electromagnetic wave, the higher is the energy
content of each photon.
26. 3. An electromagnetic wave would have energy
hƒ if it contains only one photon. 2hv if it
contains 2 photons and so on. Therefore, the
intensity of a monochromatic light beam I. is
related to the concentration of photons. N.
present in the beam. Thus,
I = N hƒ
Note that according to electromagnetic theory,
the intensity of a light beam is given by
I = 1E12
27. 4. When photons encounter matter, they
impart all their energy to the panicles of
matter and vanish. That is why absorption
of radiation is discontinuous. The number
of photons emitted by even a weak light
source is enormously large and the human
eye cannot register the photons separately
and therefore light appears as a continuous
stream. Thus, the discreteness of light is
not readily apparent.
28. The Photon
• As the radiant energy is viewed as made up of spatially
localized photons. we may attribute particle properties
to photons.
1. Energy: The energy of a photon is determined by its
frequency v and is given by E = hƒ. Using the relation
ω= 2πט and writing h/2π = ħ. we may express
E= ħω
2. Velocity: Photons always travel with the velocity of
light ‘c'.
3. Rest Mass: The rest mass of photon is zero since a
photon can never be at rest. Thus, m0= 0
4. Relativistic mass: As photon travels with the velocity
of light, it has relativistic mass. given by m= E/c2 =
hv/c2
29. 5. Linear Momentum: The linear momentum
associated with a photon may be expressed as
p=E/c=hv/c= h/λ
As the wave vector k= 2π/λ , p = hk/ 2π = ħk.
6. Angular Momentum: Angular momentum is
also known as spin which is the intrinsic
property of all micro particles. Photon has a
spin of one unit. Thus. s = lħ.
7. Electrical Charge: Photons are electrically
neutral and cannot be influenced by electric or
magnetic fields. They cannot ionize matter.
30. Example: Calculate the photon energies for
the following types of electromagnetic
radiation: (a) a 600kHz radio wave; (b) the
500nm (wavelength of) green light; (c) a 0.1
nm (wavelength of) X-rays.
Solution: (a) for the radio wave, we can use the
Planck-Einstein law directly
15 3

E h 4.136 10 eV s 600 10 Hz

we can use the law explained in wavelength:

hc 1.241 10 eV m
E 2.26eV

32. Photoelectric Effect
The quantum nature of light had its origin in the theory
of thermal radiation and was strongly reinforced by the
discovery of the photoelectric effect.
Fig. Apparatus to investigate the photoelectric effect that was
first found in 1887 by Hertz.
4
33. Photoelectric Effect
In figure , a glass tube contains two electrodes of the
same material, one of which is irradiated by light. The
electrodes are connected to a battery and a sensitive
current detector measures the current flow between them.
The current flow is a direct measure of the rate of
emission of electrons from the irradiated electrode.
34. The electrons in the electrodes can be ejected by light
and have a certain amount of kinetic energy. Now we
change:
(1) the frequency and intensity of light,
(2) the electromotive force (e.m.f. or voltage),
(3) the nature of electrode surface.
It is found that:
35. (1). For a given electrode material, no
photoemission exists at or below a certain
frequency of the incident light. When the
frequency increases, the emission begins at a
certain frequency. The frequency is called
threshold frequency of the material. The threshold
frequency has to be measured in the existence of
e.m.f. (electromotive force) as at such a case the
photoelectrons have no kinetic energy to move
from the cathode to anode . Different electrode
material has different threshold frequency.
36. (2). The rate of electron emission is directly
proportional to the intensity of the incident light.
Photoelectric current ∝ The intensity of light
(3). Increasing the intensity of the incident light
does not increase the kinetic energy of the
photoelectrons.
Intensity of light ∝ kinetic energy of photoelectron
However increasing the frequency of light does
increase the kinetic energy of photoelectrons even
for very low intensity levels.
Frequency of light ∝ kinetic energy of
photoelectron
37. (4). There is no measurable time delay between irradiating
the electrode and the emission of photoelectrons, even
when the light is of very low intensity. As soon as the
electrode is irradiated, photoelectrons are ejected.
(5) The photoelectric current is deeply affected by the nature
of the electrodes and chemical contamination of their
surface.
38. In 1905, Einstein solved the photoelectric effect
problem by applying the Planck’s hypothesis. He
pointed out that Planck’s quantization hypothesis
applied not only to the emission of radiation by a
material object but also to its transmission and its
absorption by another material object. The light is not
only electromagnetic waves but also a quantum. All the
effects of photoelectric emission can be readily
explained from the following assumptions:
39. (1) The photoemission of an electron from a cathode
occurs when an electron absorbs a photon of the
incident light;
(2) The photon energy is calculated by the Planck’s
quantum relationship: E = hν.
(3) The minimum energy is required to release an
electron from the surface of the cathode. The
minimum energy is the characteristic of the cathode
material and the nature of its surface. It is called work
function.
40. Therefore we have the equation of photoelectric effect:
21
2
h A mv
Photon energy
Work function
Photoelectron kinetic energy
Using this equation and Einstein’s assumption, you could
readily explain all the results in the photoelectric effect: why
does threshold frequency exist (problem)? why is the number
of photoelectrons proportional to the light intensity? why does
high intensity not mean high photoelectron energy (problem)?
why is there no time delay (problem)?
41. Example: Ultraviolet light of wavelength 150nm falls
on a chromium electrode. Calculate the maximum
kinetic energy and the corresponding velocity of the
photoelectrons (the work function of chromium is
4.37eV).
Solution: using the equation of the photoelectric effect, it
is convenient to express the energy in electron volts. The
photon energy is
