Physics - Ch 66.5 Quantum Mechanics: The Hydrogen Atom (31 of 78) What is the Zeeman Effect?

Visit ilectureonline.com for more math and science lectures!
In this video I will explain what is the Zeeman effect. Zeeman is a Dutch physicist whose name means “man of the sea.” When electron jumps from a higher energy level to a lower energy level photons are emitted at specific wavelengths or frequencies. Zeeman discovered when the hydrogen atom is subjected to a magnetic electric field additional spectra lines appeared.

This is a SUPERB explanation to an amateur like myself, who hungers to know more! Absolutely wonderful! Why can't other explanations be as succinct?

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Glad it was helpful!

[@marcuspradas1037]

Excellent lecture another time! Your's is a channel of reference when you need to learn something from zero or when you think you have conceptual misunderstandings. Congratulations yet another time.

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Glad our videos are helping. 🙂

[@gilbertengler9064]

Excellent your explanations of these orbitals. I never thought that with a molecular biology background, I would be able to understand these calculations. Many thanks, now I much better appreciate what they taught me many many years ago concerning quantum numbers.

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Glad it was helpful!

[@Fey44]

I just came to learn more about the Zeeman effect, and this video definitely delivered!

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Glad you found our videos.

This is a great explanation, I am just having trouble understanding how an electron can have 3 orbital angular momenta orientations at once? Would this be some sort of superposition, and if so, why would it not have collapsed into one state?
Edit: I just learned about the concept of coherence, and my mind has been blown. Thank you for the wonderful explanation again!

[@MichelvanBiezen]

You are welcome. Glad you figured it out.

Tysm sir for that satisfying reason other video on CZcams are just telling what is zeeman effect but also gave a proper reason y it occurs , tysm

[@donkilluminati5429]

Best explanation of the Zeeman effect I'm just an electrician who enjoys quantum physics

[@matheusmf4135]

Amazing explanation!

[@hodongjunior2826]

Thanks for the explanation!

[@twrandy]

Fantastic, now I understand this phenomenon

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Great. Glad you found our videos. 🙂

[@NuclearKatie]

Bless your soul for this explanation. I've been trying to figure out what magnetic substrates are for my modern physics class for hours now.

[@MichelvanBiezen]

You're very welcome!

[@waqassaeed674]

Your explanation is always Best of the best ! 💯 Love and Respect from Pakistan.🇵🇰

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Thank you and welcome to the channel!

[@missandoh4520]

finally found an online lecturer without an accent. thank you sooo much.

[@bebinashanty5545]

I can't believe this I learnt the topics of quantum mechanics within no time .actually it was too tough for me but you made it easy. Great explanation god bless you

[@medievalmusiclover]

So great explanation Michel. Good job, now I understand much better what the Zeeman Effect is.

[@MichelvanBiezen]

Thank you. Glad you found our videos. 🙂

[@paparizziskyguard5414]

Thank you very much it was really clear explanations

[@MichelvanBiezen]

You are welcome. Glad you found it helpful 🙂

[@solsticetwo3476]

Your channel rocks!

[@_John_Sean_Walker]

Thank U sir.

[@anuarsifuentes1251]

Excelent! That was great. Do you have a video explaining the “normal Zeeman effect” and the “anormal Zeeman effect”?

[@MichelvanBiezen]

There are many topics we still have to cover in more detail. The Zeeman effect being one of them. So many topics, so little time..........

[@interiorartnews4568]

Thanks

[@MichelvanBiezen]

You are welcome. 🙂

[@user-mt7if9ru3w]

Does that mean if there were no magnetic field applied the electron angular momentum will be a single value?

[@MichelvanBiezen]

It means that a magnetic field is needed in order to subdivide the energy levels associated with the angular momentum.

[@sayajinppl417]

i have a question , if the electron jumps from the second energy state to the first and emits a photon its wave length will be 486 nm which is visible , but in reality what do we see exactly ?

[@MichelvanBiezen]

If it is just a single electron, we wouldn't see anything, but with millions of billions of electrons making that jump we would see blue or purple light corresponding to that wavelength.

[@joxa6119]

You just save my today online class.

[@greasygoosehat9994]

Zooweemama Effect AOOOGA 😲😲😲

[@aman7697]

Sir please upload videos for optics .

[@MichelvanBiezen]

There are many playlists on optics on this channel.

[@lavk2777]

🐐!
