Animated Lectures on
Fundamental Physics

This
site presents a series of 3D animated videos showing some
fundamental characteristics of light. These .avi animations can
be
seen directly on your computer. Everything is free. We are just
interested in teaching fundamental science.
You
can
download
each .avi animation from the Web as shown below. Of
course, you also need a video (.avi) player, which must be previously
installed. If you use Windows, you have a video player at:
Accessories/Multiplayer/Windows Media Player
On
the
Web
you
can get QuickTime or VideoSnap, etc…
You
can
see
these
animations and examine them as carefully as you like
after downloading these animations into your computer. The .avi
files
are necessarily large. The downloading time of the .avi file might be
about 5 minutes when the video file is transmitted using a telephone
line. Be patient.
You
can
copy
the
file
in your own computer. The safest way is to
click on
the right hand button of your mouse BEFORE DOWNLOADING THE FILE, select
SAVE LINK AS..., then choose the directory
where the
video file will be downloaded and then click on SAVE.
After downloading, go to that same chosen
directory, and you will see the video just clicking on file
name: 258-Video.avi
Furthermore, a very high quality .avi file is
easily available on CD-ROM

Photon versus electromagnetic radiation.doc
We see how the electromagnetic energy flow
is continuous but its DETECTION is quantized.
Quantization
of light also occurs in the emission of electromagnetic radiation by
atoms, because their states are naturally quantized.
