Class 12 Physics (India): Why atomic theory doesn't work for solids
To understand what happens in a solid we need to go quantum! We have already studied, how electrons fill up an atom in discrete energy levels. But we can't use that for solids. In this video, we will explore, why, we need a new theory to understand properties of solids.
Class 12 Physics (India)
It is now time to dive deeper into the world of physics with topics from class 12 (NCERT) such as electrostatics, electricity, magnetism, electromagnetic induction, and electromagnetic waves. Let's also learn more about light with ray optics and wave optics. Finally, let's look at what happened in the last hundred years of physics by getting introduced to quantum mechanics with dual nature of radiati…

Band theory of solids
Why do some things conduct electricity readily while others don't? Turns out we need to learn a new theory of solids called 'band theory' to answer this question. In this section we will explore why we need this new theory, what is this band theory, and how we can use it to explain the conducting properties of solids.
