Einstein-Bohr Debates : Solvay Conference Questions

[tg22542]

Homework Statement

1) How did Bohr integrate ideas from classical and quantum physics?

2) Which ideas discussed throughout the conference have been good for humanity?

Homework Equations

none

The Attempt at a Solution

1) Bohr included different experiments to prove that a spectra could explain the inside of an atom, he used other experiments preceding relativity (classical physics).. I seriously don't know what to put.

2) If Einstein had not refuted Bohr, his theory would not be %100 accepted, and if we had of ignored Bohrs' ideas and left to Einsteins thoughts, we would see physics completely different. The experiments and ideas conducted during this conference influenced modern quantum mechanics and nuclear energy.

help please my answers are terrible

1) Niels Bohr's integration of classical and quantum physics involved incorporating the concept of quantization, which states that energy and matter can only exist in discrete, quantized states, into the existing classical physics framework. He also used the concept of orbits from classical physics to explain the arrangement of electrons in an atom, while also incorporating the idea of wave-particle duality from quantum physics.

2) Some of the ideas discussed in the conference that have been beneficial for humanity include the development of nuclear energy, which has provided a source of clean and efficient energy for various applications. The understanding of quantum mechanics has also led to advancements in technology, such as transistors and computer chips, which have revolutionized our daily lives. Additionally, the concept of uncertainty in quantum mechanics has challenged our understanding of determinism and has opened up new philosophical discussions.
