Planck's Law

Description: Planck's law, also known as Planck's radiation law, is a fundamental principle in quantum physics that describes the spectral energy density of electromagnetic radiation. It provides a mathematical formula for the distribution of energy emitted by a blackbody at different wavelengths at a given temperature.

Examples:

As a noun:

The study of Planck's law is crucial in understanding the behavior of electromagnetic radiation.
Planck's law states that the amount of energy emitted by a blackbody at a specific wavelength is directly related to its temperature.

As a verb:

Scientists plancked the observed radiation data to determine the temperature of the object.
By plancking the spectral energy density, physicists can derive important information about the source of radiation.
