Oh how much confusion
Grows from small events
When the units are confused
It fouls up our measurements
2
Even with the words we choose
To explain what we have found
In the lab, for things we’ve had
Can easily confound
3
An example is the “photon"
Some say is from hf
Planck’s Constant times the frequency
Was its original intent
4
Is it the entire resonant field
Or just a unit of that stuff?
If n = the number of full quanta,
nhf is then enough
5
However,
f is in cycles per second
That means that we assume
The pulse is a whole second long
And all of it consume
6
That means it’s not just energy
But "Power" we produce
Which can be useful as can be
But still, it can confuse
7
Yet,
In resonant fields that overlap,
They do so wave-by-wave
Which may include some different n
Which says how they behave
8
If the n does modulate
in a series of wavelengths
It’s like an old time radio show
In quantized even strengths
9
When their fields do overlap
Their Einstein Codes combine
The patterns that result from them
New features they define.
10
When Einstein Codes combine
It’s like cryptography
They’re pseudorandom in their works
So, results always agree
11
So there needs to be a better
Way to measure energy
On a cycle-for-cycle basis
As it relates to what we see
12
The question is, how much there is
In just one wavelength long
We divide by the number of cycles
And get E = nhf/f = nh, is how strong
13
In this case, the h we find,
Has come from energy
Numerically like Planck’s original
But now it’s a measure of quantized Energy
14
Thus, in the common photon field
The amount of Energy
Is a result of quantized resonance
Regardless of frequency
15
It sure is appropriate
To give it a fine name
We call it, “planck” for dear old Max
Since his work, brought on his fame
16
Now when we map the resonant fields
Much easier it’s been made
We’ll see how fields do interact
Thanks to this fine new aid
17
Let’s make science easy
Let’s make it fun for sure
So you’ll remember more of it
And, your education will endure
Fun wasn’t it!
