    About this ebook

    Balungi explains deep ideas in physics in an easy-to-understand way. Think Physics is a series aimed to solving the big problems in physics. The book targets topics that researchers and students spend time wondering about, like the origin of gravity and the universe. It also goes into the theories that seem right but are wrong and shows why they are wrong a rarity in science books. Think Physics series is a rigorously correct, lighthearted, and cleverly designed problem solving book for physicists of all ages.

     

    *Has been tested, rewritten, and retested to ensure that you can teach yourself all about major unsolved physics problems

     

    *Requires no math-mathematical treatments and applications are included in optional sections so that you can choose either a mathematical or nonmathematical approach. No Calculus

     

    In this PART 7 of Think Physics series; Balungi introduces a new approach to the quantum theory. Using his thought experiment, he explains physics from Maxwell electromagnetism to the photoelectric effect, and finally the Bohr model of the Hydrogen atom all coming from his particle duality model.

    Balungi Francis

    Balungi Francis was born in Kampala, Uganda, to a single poor mother, grew up in Kawempe, and later joined Makerere Universty in 2006, graduating with a Bachelor Science degree in Land Surveying in 2010. For four years he taught in Kampala City high schools, majoring in the fields of Gravitation and Quantum Physics. His first book, "Mathematical Foundation of the Quantum theory of Gravity," won the Young Kampala Innovative Prize and was mentioned in the African Next Einstein Book Prize (ANE).  He has spent over 15years researching and discovering connections in physics, mathematics, geometry, cosmology, quantum mechanics, gravity, in addition to astrophysics, unified physics and geographical information systems . These studies led to his groundbreaking theories, published papers, books and patented inventions in the science of Quantum Gravity, which have received worldwide recognition. From these discoveries, Balungi founded the SUSP (Solutions to the Unsolved Scientific Problems) Project Foundation in 2004 – now known as the SUSP Science Foundation. As its current Director of Research, Balungi leads physicists, mathematicians and engineers in exploring Quantum Gravity  principles and their implications in our world today and for future generations. Balungi launched the Visionary School of Quantum Gravity  in 2016 in order to bring the learning and community further together. It’s the first and only Quantum Gravity physics program of its kind, educating thousands of students from over 80 countries. The book "Quantum Gravity in a Nutshell1", a most recommend book in quantum gravity research , was produced based on Balungi's discoveries and their potential for generations to come. Balungi is currently guiding the Foundation, speaking to audiences worldwide, and continuing his groundbreaking research.

      The Wave and Particle Analogy

      Basing our study on the electric currents generated whenever there is a changing magnetic field (B) and a changing electric field (E) in the electromagnetic wave we can construct a complete theory for the electromagnetic radiations. The theory is created using the symmetry between a long wire placed in the electromagnetic fields which induce vibrating electrons that carry current in the wire and the electromagnetic wave which constitute changing electric and magnetic fields that create vibrating photons in the wave.

      Therefore a wire is to a wave what a vibrating electron is to a vibrating photon in the wire and a wave respectively. The aim of the paper is to give a clear description of the theory of electromagnetic radiations
