Read Online Breakfast with Einstein: The Exotic Physics of Everyday Objects - Chad Orzel | ePub Online

This book aims to explain quantum physics by tying its bizarrely exotic features to common everyday events. The hope of this approach is to convey to the reader the fact that quantum physics is part of everyday life, not some obscure theory separated from reality. Indeed the book explains that the quantum revolution began in 1900 with Max Planck wondering why the hot burner on his electric stovetop glowed (i.e. emit photons). Additionally, why did the color (i.e. light wave frequency) of the hot
