Physics and Python stuff. Most of the videos here are either adapted from class lectures or solving physics problems. I ...

Using his model, Bohr was able to calculate the spectral lines — the lines in the continuous spectrum of light — that the hydrogen atoms would absorb. The shortcomings of the Bohr model ...

I'm writing up a report about 21cm-line radio astronomy, and it includes a discussion of spectral lines and the 21cm line in particular.However, I have a problem that I was hoping the genius of ...

“Wallis couldn’t have possibly known [the trend] would show up in the hydrogen atom because no-one knew about the hydrogen atom then,” Friedmann says. She adds that, while the formula could have been ...

Bohr’s Model of an Atom: Students get to know the Bohr’s Model of an Atom. Find out what are its limitations and the postulates it is based on.

Niels Bohr's model of the hydrogen atom—first published 100 years ago and commemorated in a special issue of Nature—is simple, elegant, revolutionary, and wrong. Well, "wrong" isn't exactly ...

It's a simplistic model, yet provides insights into atoms and chemical properties, and this year marks 100 years since the model was first proposed by Danish physicist Niels Bohr. Advertisement ...
