| Quantum mechanics is not the simplest explanation around. Plancks energy equation should be E=htf h should be in the units of Joule as opposed to Joule second. This formula reveals the true nature of the photon: its not a fundamental particle. What we regard as a photon today is the energy of 1 seconds worth of light at some frequency f. Every wavelength of light contains the same energy, h, regardless of frequency. When you realize plancks constant should be in Joules you will shortly realize that the fine structure constant actually has units of seconds. Another neat thing is that light has mass: h/c^2 (ridiculously small). If it has mass then it should have net charge as well. This could explain why light curves without needing general relativity. Coulombs law using permeability of free space instead of permittivity reveals that coulombs law is a long form of expressing E=mc^2 F * d = muc^2 q1q2/d E = (h2alpha/e^2c)(q1*q2/d)c^2 Edit: formatting |
